Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 1997 honda prelude with only 67,000 miles. started to make a minor buzzing noise when in park or neutral. took it to my independent honda mechanic who told me that i had a bearing going in the transmission. it would require a rebuild of the transmission. cost $3,900. he suggested that i sell the car quickly as it wasn't worth the cost of repairs. that's what i did. sold it to a honda dealership. honda needs to recognize the problem with these transmissions. no more hondas for me.
