Accord 6-cyl

  • 63,465 miles
I have an 2002 Honda Accord ex V6. We purchased with 50 miles on it. Around 58K seemed to be shifting harder (automatic transmission) but not hard enough to kick any trouble codes. I found this out after taking it to an certified tech who put it on a scanner. About 1 month ago the traction control light came on while my husband and I where driving the car suddenly the traction control light came on the car seemed to bog down, the motor revving up and down. We where on interstate 81 when this happened with a 18 wheeler behind us. Thank goodness we where in the car and not my 18 year old daughter. This was the car we purchased for her and at this point both my husband and will not let her drive. My husband called a Honda dealership they said they had trouble with older Honda Accord with cylinder motors up to 2001. Where the transmissions would do the same things.
