I purchased my 2001 Honda Accord ex from a private party in Feb of 2011. At the end of April, I started noticing gear shifting problems and a week later it just got worse-the d4 light would flash continuosly and the car would rev up but would not move causing me to almost encounter a few accidents. When I did my research and contacted a mechanic, they told me the repairs would be between $2,000 and $3,000 which I do not have!!! I have been forced to put the only form of transportation I have to the side untill I can attempt to get the money to repair it.
My car suddenly started to stop shifting into gear. Driving, it would slip out of gear and I would have to shift it into another gear to get it to move. This would fail and I would shift it into another gear. Starting from red light--10 to 15 seconds with no response from car--very dangerous situation to be in. Took to Honda dealer--needed a new transmission--cost $3,400. Ridiculous. Car has only 58,000 miles on it.
The contact owns a 2001 Honda Accord. When the vehicle is parked, it is extremely difficult to shift into another gear. The contact took the vehicle to a local mechanic and he located NHTSA campaign id number 05v025000 (electrical system:ignition:switch). The dealer stated that the VIN was not included in the recall and all the repairs would be made at the contact's expense. The vehicle has not been repaired. The failure and current mileages were 68,000.
: the contact stated at 72,000 miles, the transmission began slipping. The dealership replaced the transmission. Then at 106,000 miles, while at a toll booth, the vehicle would not go into gear. The vehicle was towed to the dealership who determined the transmission needed to be replaced.
: the contact stated while driving, the vehicle will not go into third gear. At 30 mph, the revolutions per minute continue to rise, but the vehicle will not change gears. A private mechanic was consulted who determined the transmission needs to be replaced.
The consumer had problems changing the gear from park to another gear. Taken to shop for checkup.
