Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Took vehicle to dealer (lucas honda) for 90000 miles service, no previous problems. after manual transmission fluid change pulled away from the dealer and the first time the car was put into 5th gear the transmission made a loud grind. immediately pulled over and got car taken back to dealer where they denied liability. research later found that the manual transmissions have a recall for the shift fork which they blame for my problem, however i paid 900 dollars to have the 5th gear,and shift fork replaced. *ak
