Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Just bought the car a few weeks back. carfax did not show any work performed for recalled transmission. transmission started to cause car to violently buck, at about 30 mphs, and the engine redlined. this is inline with many similar stories from forum posters who also have suffered from this acknowledged defect in honda's transmission for the 03' accord automatic v-6 model. research revealed this recall, so i contacted a local dealership who told me the recall work had already been performed. i contacted honda corp. 800-999-1009 who stated that the car had recall service at 48k miles. and regardless if the transmission is still acting in the same dangerous fashion, honda is no longer responsible to pay for work to fix this transmission issue. so even though the transmission may still be dangerous for the reason that caused the recall, they claim to have fulfill all commitments after their first attempt to fix the car, and hold no further obligation to fix their defect. *tr |
