1 Automatic Transmission Torque Converter problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2014

All 2013-2016 Honda Accords with v6 engines and automatic transmission have a design failure that causes the starter and torque converter to grind intermittently until they fail. This design failure creates an extremely dangerous condition and can lead to the owner stranded. The cost to repair this problem is over $4,000 . My failure started within the first 3 years of service with less then 50,000 miles. I've had to pay for 3 new starters and the problem still occurs. An online search show this problem occurs at a very high rate on these vehicles. I believe the problem is the engine and transmission won't align and even after the torque converter is replaced the problem will still occur because of the clearance failure due a manufacturer design issue.
