I HAVE A 2000 HONDA ACCORD WITH 2 DOOR AND 4 CYLINDER; MILEAGE IS ABOUT 105000. THE CAR HAS THE SRS SIGN ON IT. TOOK IT TO COUPLE DEALERS AND TALKED TO SOME CAR ENTHUSIASTS, AND THEY SAY IT'S AN AIRBAG ISSUE. AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. HONDA DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE AROUND 100+ TO DIAGNOSE AND THEN WOULD TELL ME HOW MUCH IT WILL TAKE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I FEEL IF IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE, IT SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY HONDA. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SEAT BELT FAILS TO LOCK AFTER THE RESTRAINTS ARE PULLED IN PLACE. SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE "AS IS". THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR, BUT THEY COULD NOT MAKE THE REPAIRS. SHE WAS ADVISED TO CALL THE HONDA MANUFACTURER TO CHECK IF THE RECALL PERTAINED TO HER VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 165,041.

IT DOES NOT SHIFT FROM 1-2 GEAR SMOOTHLY. IT GOES INTO HIGH RPM (5000) AND THEN JUMPS TO SECOND. THE JERKS ARE VERY NOTICEABLE WHEN ITS SHIFTS GEARS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE LURCHED BACKWARDS. THE CONTACT CONTINUED TO DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE WENT INTO REVERSE ON ITS OWN. SHE SLAMMED ON HER BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE FAILED. THE DEALER STATED THAT IT WAS OK TO STILL DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE REPAIR WOULD COST $3,800. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS VERY UNPREDICTABLE, BUT HONDA WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE. IF THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE WAS 109,000 OR LESS, THEY COULD POSSIBLY REPAIR THE VEHICLE UNDER WARRANTY. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 123,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND THEN ACCELERATED WHEN SHIFTED FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. WHEN PULLING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE STOPPED AFTER 10-20 SECONDS. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AND THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE AXLE SHIELD FAILED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THERE WAS A 50/50 CHANCE THAT THE REPAIR WOULD CORRECT THE FAILURE OR A NEW TRANSMISSION WOULD BE NEEDED. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD TWO TRANSMISSION REPAIRS, BUT THE SECOND TRANSMISSION BEGAN DISPLAYING THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE FIRST ONE. THE CONTACT WILL NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED DURING THE FIRST FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS CLASS ACTION SUIT IN 2006 THAT WAS SETTLED. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WOULD BE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THE DEALER IS CURRENTLY BEING UNCOOPERATIVE AND WILL NOT ASSIST. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN REPAIRED.

I HAVE 2000 HONDA ACCORD; ODOMETER: 84,196. THE CAR IS EXHIBITING THE EXACT SAME TRANSMISSION PROBLEM FOR WHICH HONDA HAD EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR 93 MONTHS/109,000 MILES.. THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM USUALLY HAPPENS BECAUSE OF DRIVING THE CAR FOR LONG.. SINCE I DRIVE LESS, I DID NOT HIT THIS PROBLEM UNTIL NOW, BUT MY CAR IS NOW MORE THAN 93 MONTHS OLD.. HONDA IS REFUSING TO FIX THIS ISSUE.. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD (THE CAR STALLS ABRUPTLY IN HIGHWAY) BUT HONDA IS NOT WILLING TO FIX.. I REPLACED THE SOLENOIDS BUT NO IMPROVEMENT. THE REPAIR FACILITY TOLD ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. *TR
