I cannot make it across busy streets safely due to my vehicles transmission torque converter. It takes too long to engage from first to second gear. There was a recall on this issue back in 2004. I bought this car from someone in 2014 not knowing about it. Issues include: transmission slips or won't engage. Car stutters or jerks while accelerating. Check engine light on.
As I pushed down on gas the car hesitated to go and my check engine light pops on. I took my car to advanced auto parts to check it and it read transmission torque converter.
I own a 2001 Accord v6 with a little over 136,000 miles. Check engine light came on after car had been hesitating and slipping when changing gears. Also was pulling when going around corners (almost felt like braking automaticall). Took the car in, and initially there was a code for iacv (idle air control valve). Auto shop flushed the system, reset check engine light. The next day, check engine light came on again. Brought it in after a couple of weeks and it's a code p0740 for tcc (torque converter clutch) solenoid valve circuit malfunction. Was told it's the transmission, which appears to be happening quite frequently - and conveniently after the 100,000 warranty extension was granted. Feels unsafe driving the car, not knowing if/when the transmission is going to fail, so now I'm forced to spend $2000 getting the transmission rebuilt.

Premature torque converter failure. . . It fell apart and tore up the transmission. It's a safety issue because that happening on a CA freeway can be potentially deadly. It's a known defect in the cars. My daughter was on the freeway when it started to slip and bang, fortunately the were able to get off the freeway before it got worse.
I bought a 2001 Honda Accord 5 months ago with 78,000 miles. It now has 83,000 miles on it. . Check engine light came on and it says torque converter solenoid switch. Honda is saying they don't honor up to 100,000 miles. They're saying its only 36,000 miles.
3 codes set on transmission. Transmission slips when shifting from first to second gear. Car revs loudly but does not accelerate much. Torque converter has some problem too.
