Honda Accord 2005 V6 under 25,000 miles suddenly started having problems with the automatic transmission which finally failed on May 2011 while driving on the highway. A complete automatic transmission overhaul and torque converter change were performed at a Honda dealer at a cost of over $2600. New transmission felt great during the first 3 months (even though it torque converter started leaking oil and I had to take it to the dealer for repair) but recently I have notice abrupt delays (slow down) while shifting gears, like its is pulling you back and strange kicks while shifting. Car accelerates slower as well and does not react as quickly or smoothly as new. I took the car to the same Honda dealer and they say nothing is wrong with the transmission.

My wife and I and 5 year old daughter was driving on IH35 on the left lane at 70mph when the transmission suddenly failed. My wife was driving and said she was loosing power and had presence of mind to pulled over to the right side. All the cars were going really fast. Thank god we were able to pull over and did not get hit from behind. After stopping the car would not engage to drive and revved up only so had it towed to a Honda facility. There we were told it was total transmission failure. They charged me 4500 dollars.I did not have a choice as we were travelling and 250 miles away from home and did not have a choice as the other places we called said they could not even take a look for a few days till Monday as it was a Friday afternoon. I did do my research and called a few transmission places and was told it was a 2500 dollar job. Double insult transmission fails at 95K and charged 2000 more. Last time I buy a Honda.

Initially when putting car in reverse it would not engage going into a forward gear once stopped. Then upon entering highway the engine just revved and car lost speed almost causing me to be rear-ended at high speed because car would not drive. End result was torque converter was faulty and caused transmission to burn fluid and gears to shred. Car was towed to hawley's auto repair on shaker road East longmeadow, MA on 12/20 where it was rendered fully un-drivable as transmission completely failed. Honda was contacted but stated they would not cover the repair even though it is a known frequent failure.

Transmission failed at highway speed resulting in immediate vehicle deceleration and near accident. Honda refused to fully cover the cost of the failed transmission despite numerous other reports of failed V6/at failures in the 2005 model year, and previous model year recalls. Significant safety concern in this model year and transmission combination.

- Yorktown, VA, USA

Driving down the street when the malfunction indicator light went on. Within 5 seconds the engine stalled. Was able to pull to side of road and stop the vehicle. Turned off the ignition and was able to start the vehicle. This matches the scenario as outlined in recall #59558. Contacted local dealer and Honda America and was advised that my vehicle is not part of the recall.

- San Antonio, TX, USA

Car shutters between 35mph and 40mph and has lost transmission fluid. Its problems are exactly like those in a prior class action suit against Honda. They haven't fixed the problem. A recall was received for a software update for the transmission, I think they are just trying to see how many they have out there doing what they have already been sued for. After the software update nothing changed.

The transmission is slipping between 1st and 2nd gear as well as 3rd and 4th gear. We took it into a shop and was told the transmission needs to be rebuilt. This car was purchased brand new and has around 80,000 miles. The guy at the transmission shop stated this was a known issue with Honda but they were not willing to fix it. He stated the plastic caps on the torque converter were breaking and should have never been used at all.

At first, when putting the car into gear, there would be a delay before the vehicle actually accepted that gear--anywhere from 6-10 seconds, along with a grinding noise when I would go from drive to park. I immeduately called my dealer and took it over there and explained to them what had been happening. Given the mileage of my car, the manager of the service dept took the car out for a drive on the highway (with me), and tried to see if the gears were in fact slipping and I would need tranny work. After the test drive, it was decided that they would drain all the transmission fluid and replace it with new. This worked well for about 2 weeks, and then we had a big cold snap here in Colorado. After that, it all went South. My car would no longer shift into 2nd or 3rd without a lot of noise. Called the dealer, and by the time we got it there, the car was barely moving at 40mph on a major highway. When I purchased this car three years ago, the odometer read 42,000 miles. Today it reads 67,000. Really" I have transmission failure at 67,000?????" thank goodness I have a highly competent service manager at the dealership who went to bat for me and called Honda directly. I received a "goodwill" repair, but am still forking over $1568 for a new transmission. Obviously, Honda has not fixed their transmission problems. I believe another recall needs to be issued sooner, rather than later.

Car was running fine. No problems. All of a sudden the airbag light came on. I stopped the car and checked the seat on the passenger side and seat belts trying to figure out why it was on. I got back into the car and continued home. When slowing to turn into driveway a loud banging noise occurred. The car was put in park and immediately started rolling backwards. This could have been a hazard if a car had been passing by or if this had happened in busy traffic. I could have rolled back and hurt someone, hurt myself or rolled back into oncoming traffic. Also if someone had been walking behind the car and gotten ran over and killed. Anyway it was later towed to a dealer and diagnostics ran. The dealer informed me that I needed a new transmission. That is not right. My car was like new with a little over 68 thousand miles on it. I still owe on it and purchased it brand new. Honda should be responsible for this. Since this has happened to me and I have begun to research this I found a ton of recalls for this same problem, yet I am told my car is a 6 cylinder and is not under recall. Please help. I was told it would cost me 4400 plus $ to replace the transmission. Honda should be responsible for this cost.
