Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Honda claims to have a good reputation for building stable vehicles. i bought my acura brand new in 2001 and my transmission has failed only 100,000 miles later. that is worse than a old ford escort. honda has been attempting to deceive consumers by claiming they will address a transmission defect they identified since in 2004. i have seen dozens of complaints indicating that they are not honoring their commitment to consumers. a class action lawsuit is needed to prevent this company from abusing their customers. someone is going to loose their life if honda does not fulfill their obligation. they are giving consumers the run around by claiming that the inspection was allegedly completed and no breakage in the gears were detected so that the cost of replacing transmissions will not be incurred by them. the acura transmissions are now beginning to fail at a rapid pace and honda is refusing to replace them. please investigate this matter before people starts losing their lives because of this company's negligence. what they have been doing is attempting to stall the process by passing faulty transmissions as operable then waiting until the warranty expires to trap the consumer with the costs of repairs. this is unscrupulous and unethical behavior. if my car isn't repaired immediately i am going to invite media attention to this matter as i have evidence of this wrong doing. *nm
