WAS EXITING TOLL GATE ON I-70 AT KANSAS CITY AND TRANSMISSION FLUID CAME POURING OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE TRANNY CASE. I HAD THE TRANSMISSION REGULARLY SERVICED AND APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS BEFORE THIS AT SERVICE NOTHING UNUSUAL WAS DETECTED. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO TOPEKA TRANSMISSION SERVICE, INC. THE TRANSMISSION WAS CHANGED. IN TAKING MY HONDA TO THE TOPEKA HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR TWO OTHER RECALLS, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS ALSO A TRANSMISSION RECALL, NHTSA-04V-176000. BECAUSE MY TRANSMISSION HAD ALREADY FAILED AND BEEN REPLACED THEY DID NOTHING. I CONTACTED HONDA MOTORS AMERICA. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WOULD DO AS I COULD NOT PROVE THAT WHAT HAPPENED WAS A RESULT OF THAT RECALL. I TOLD THEM THEY COULD NOT PROVE THAT IS WAS NOT. I REQUEST YOUR ASSISTANCE IN RECEIVING COMPENSATION FOR THIS RECALL THAT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT AND THE SUBSEQUENT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL.
