Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have 25000 miles on a 2002 honda accord se. last year we started to have a low whine between 30 and 50 mph . this year (2006) there is a rumbling noise on acceleration and disappears when the speed is decreased. i thought is was the tires and replaced them but the noise remains. i brought the car to several mechanics and they all believe it is the transmission. called honda public relations to discuss and i was essentially told tough luck. there appears to be many failures of honda transmissions and an obvious engineering flaw. *jb
