The third gear in Honda Accord 2007 v6, manual transmission pops out that can be a potiential safety hazard. Upon investigation found that this problem is present in all 6 speed manual transmission Honda civic, Accord, and Acura fom 2002 to 2007. My research found that this issue has been a probem with even brand new Honda. Honda has issued a TSB, but it refuses to fix the problem the moment warranty has expired. This can cause potential rear ending in on ramp.
Manual shift from 2nd gear to 3rd gear occasionally hits a notch going into 3rd. When you release the clutch assuming you are in 3rd, the gears grind loudly and the shift lever is thrown forcibly back to neutral, leaving you without power. The car has only 3,000 miles on it. The Honda dealer and Honda America say that the transmission is designed to operate this way, that this is not a defect covered under the warranty and that there is nothing to repair.
