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. *TR

2005 ACCORD 2.4 LITER A/C STOPPED WORKING. WAS TOLD CONDENSER HAD A HOLE CAUSED BY A ROCK. RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT NUMEROUS OWNERS OF HONDA PRODUCTS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. HONDA NEEDS TO REDESIGN THE LAY OUT AND LOCATION OF THE A/C CONDENSER OR PROVIDE SOME SORT OF WARRANTY AND PROTECTION IF THEY ARE NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE REQUIRED PARTS. WITH THE CURRENT DESIGN IT IS A MONEY MAKER FOR HONDA. NOW IT IS GOING TO COST ME HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIRS THAT HONDA SHOULD BE PAYING FOR DUE TO THEIR POOR DESIGN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD COUPE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON STARTING, THE LIGHTS ALONG THE RADIO AND AIR CONDITIONER FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER.

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.

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.
