| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The last 6 months, the car has been riding rough. the check engine light, tcs light and the d4 light kept coming on. i had the idle valve replaced and it was riding fine from there. i mentioned some of the symptoms to a friend and found that he and another person he knows who has the same make and model had the same problem. he explained that honda had extended the warranty on the transmissions for 2001 v6 models and that i should contact the customer service line in ca. apparently there had been many complaints/problems with the transmission in the 2001 honda. i called the 800# and the representative explained to me that my car could not be covered since the speedometer/odometer had been changed - i didn't know the exact mileage on the car. i explained to her that the honda dealership changed the speedometer/odometer without updating the mileage and i should not be penalized for not knowing the mileage. 1. failure is in the transmission 2. i think my car is past the extended warranty period 3. i was never notified about the possible problem with the transmission. 4. nothing has been done to date. *jb |
