Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Transmission problem: erratic shifting, hard downshifts, shifts from 5th gear into 2nd gear at high speed: close-to-death experience on the highway!! this has happened 3 months after the recall service was done concluding nothing wrong. from my research i have found that the recall - "band-aid fix" does not fix whats actually wrong with the transmission because it is a trick to make consumers think that the car is fine. the recall was put out but does not work!! this matter should be looked into properly and thuroughly again. i do not wish to injure or kill myself or others because my car is poorly designed. my car is out of warranty and will not be covered under recall since it was already provided. furthermore, the symptoms of my problem are different than the recall symptoms. the honda motor co. knows very well that all these symptoms are combined but does not want to recall the correct parts because it would cost too much and cover too many vehicles. right now my choices are very limited but expensive: replace whole transmission with few other parts. many consumers' transmissions fail multiple times so there is no permanent fix as the company claims with the recall service and i'm sure this is not the first complain. please look into the problem again and make them issue a real solution to this problem or refer me somewhere that i could get help resolving this matter. |
