This vehicle has been fine up to 9,205 miles. We have bought this vehicle back three times to our Honda dealer including this original date for shuttering, jerking, vibration,lagging and loss of power 0-25 m. P. H. Worse with a/c or econ button on as well. Also while driving, transmission jumped out of gear then revs out then goes back into gear, this problem happened once on deceleration into a residential turn. This problem occurred after our last visit to dealer in July 2015. Vibration seems from drive line in gear and was told this is normal by dealer. These issues I feel are not normal. These problems occur in traffic and are unsettling because we are just waiting for the day for the car not to respond correctly when throttle is pushed and a rear end collision to occur or crossing an intersection because of throttle response, shuttering, jerking and lagging in power or even have an issue crossing an intersection. At highway speeds 55 m. P. H problems with shuttering and lagging not present. On 8-8-2014 the original complaint was made to my Honda dealer for these issues. We were told by dealer on that date that an update had to be performed for transmission valve body, p. C. M update, and new c. V. T fluid, the update was TSB-013-053. We rescheduled for 9-6-2014 and the update was performed( mileage at that time 10,031). This update really never solved the issue. I believe it is a transmission issue and that Honda does not know how to resolve it. Seems like service advisers (who have been courteous) are being coached in what to say to customers with their underlying issues so that the problems can be put off possibly past warranty so that they can contend with other major cost inducing recalls or t. S. B's like air bags to contend with.
Automatic transmission slipped out of gear and into lower gear, cause very high engine revs and sharp deceleration. I was able to re-engage transmission after slowing down to near stop, shifting into neutral, and then shifting into 2nd. It was a dangerous situation as I was on an urban interstate highway. From thereafter, this would re-occur periodically and gradually increased in frequency.
