Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am a owner of 1998 honda accord and have just started having problems with my transmission knocking, clicking when i change gears, and it jumps out of gear as i am going down a hill. i did some research and found out that thousands of people are having the same issue. when i took it to the dealer they even was aware of the situation with the faulty transmission that they have been putting in people cars, but act like it is not a big deal. you think you are buying quality when you buy a honda, but that is not the case. i hope no one gets killed before they take action. if i have an accident while driving with my kids in the car and it locks up, i will be moving on up to the next step because i don't understand why they would not stand behind their faulty junk and not risk some being hurt or even killed. *jb
