Accord 4-cyl

  • 108,500 miles
Transmission failure. Had intermittent problems that could not be diagnosed when under 100000 miles. Transmission finally failed at 108,500 miles. Dealership & american Honda have only offered 50% discount on a known problem with their cars. I feel they should be responsible for entire cost. They were using a cop out to not honor their product. I am only a little over their extended coverage offer. Also, they stated that even though I have a great service history I did not have it done through them, instead I did have my maintenance done with Goodyear shop which was an established car center. I bought the Honda believing I would not have to encounter these issues. I can understand little problems, but not one to this extent. I just thank god that my two month old child was not in the car w/ me when it finally broke down. I had to spend $200 on towing fees. All attempts to speak with american Honda was disappointing. I also followed up with research on service history, and have come to the conclusion that Honda was just not the name it use to be.
