Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought a 2002 honda accord 2dr ex v6 new around dec '01. the day after delivery i noticed a whining sound around 40-45mph. i practically begged the sales mgr to let me do an even trade... he said no (albert fieto). honda replaced the transmission under warranty but the same problem appeared about a year later. it is just at the right sound level where it drives me nuts but the tech from the dealer can't hear it; my wife hears it as well. there is no excuse for the same problem appearing twice on a new car.i fell like i threw away 25k! i real feel honda should replace the vehicle.*ak
