Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2002 honda accord is slipping in 2nd gear. honda says it's an internal transmission failure yet honda's repair shop told me that they have had a large amount of accords come in with the exact same problem. in fact, there was an accord v6 there at that time with the same problem. i called honda's recall dept. but they told me that since there was no direct "safety issue" that there would not be a recall on the transmission. i feel that there is a transmission defect and that is the reason why a large amount of other people are having the exact same problems. honda said they would pay for 75% of my repairs for a rebuilt trans. i would still have to pay 500.00. this does not seem reasonable to me since all accord v6 models are receiving new (rebuilt) trans. due to a recall. i have a 4 cylinder and feel it should also be a part of the recall. *la
