Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: For the past month or so, the transmission made a high pitched noise when starting the vehicle. after the vehicle is warmed up the noise would go away. noise became louder with time. initially noticed transmission problem when vehicle would not engage in drive when shifted from park. when pressing the accelerator pedal there was a delay in acceleration. took vehicle to a reputable honda specialist who stated the transmission needed to be replaced!!! the estimate for replacement with a re-manufactured transmission is $2,500... ouch!the vehicle is maintained on regular basis and only has 63,000 miles on it. so much for the infamous honda reliability and durability. and to think that the wife and i were considering buying a honda minivan!*jb |
