Automatic Transmission Control Module Problems of Honda Civic

Failure of transmission control module description fits exact diagnosis in recall. Check transmission light on at 45,000 miles. Andy mohr wants money to inspect it. I an more than willing to if they will inspect it for free but it is not drivable. If they would come pick it up I would be happy to let them drive it all they want. The problem came with no warning on the highway. Car wouldn’t no longer switch to second gear. Purchased at andy mohr Honda in bloomington at 17,000 miles off lease from some someone who barely drove it. Certified preowned by Honda. Paid in full, feel ripped off. Yes, available for inspection on request no warning: transmission complete failure 2015 silver Honda Civic has been discussed with mechanics at curry Buick in. Bloomington as well as our winslow marathon which has great mechanics, they told me to contact you. The issue according to the nthsb is the “tcm” or transmission control module. Resulting in cars wheels locking up, or spinning out of control and not changing gears (this is what happened to me and repeated itself when I waited a week and tried driving around my neighborhood ) the issue is supposed to result in transmission and powertrain failure, making engine wanting to redline very easily. I’m lucky I didn’t burn my engine up. I didn’t purchase a car in 2018 at 17,000 miles and expect the transmission to fall out at 45,000 miles. That’s unacceptable and I was never notified, and andy mohr purports that my vehicle was either serviced or software changed resulting in no issue, however a transmission dying at 45,000 mi on a Honda Civic is not right and I suspect Honda notified the previous lessee and they did not service the car or had it improperly serviced. Otherwise I see no reason to have a car fall apart at 45,000 miles. I drive like grandma.

I was commuting to work when my engine experienced catastrophic failure and was stuck on the interstate. Prior to this, the engine was making audible "ticking" sounds which are indicative of rod bearing failure. This happens from poorly lubricated parts and is a direct result of Honda of America requiring 0w-20 oil in its direct injected earth dreams motors. These earth dream engines have had a proven reputation for having oil dilution problems that cause catastrophic engine failure since 2016. Other subsidiaries of Honda around the world recommend 5w-30 oil, or thicker oil, in the same exact motors. It's because of this that Honda of America receives the most complaints for catastrophic engine failure for its 1. 5l earth dreams motors. My warranty got denied because Honda determined that the cause of failure was due to a modified engine control unit. The problem is that Honda would not look into or rule out other causes of failure and instead put liability for repairs on me the consumer. They would not take apart the engine for examination and instead just performed a visual inspection and a scan of the engine's power control module. Furthmore, Honda of America would not disclose any technical information to me that proved any modifications made to the car caused the problem. In other words, they would not release information to me that they had on a vehicle I own. All that was discovered from their pcm scan was that it was modified. Since Honda of America and it's dealerships are the only authorities that govern their warranty claims, they will not let me dispute their decision. Because Honda of America refused to perform a proper root cause analysis with their warranty claims, it tampers with the integrity of the entire maintenance data documentation system. In other words, Honda technicians will never be able to recognize a common product issue if Honda of America continues to put liability and blame on the customer for any non disputable reason they claim.

I was driving on I-635 in dallas in stop and go traffic just before the hwy 75 exit in the far left lane. There was an accident and construction ahead so traffic was moving very slow. My car began to vibrate slightly and then inexplicably stalled. I put it in park and then attempted to restart it. The car restarted fine but I was unable to move it out of park. After several minutes the traffic cleared and we were stuck and unable to move while sitting in the fast lane. I was petrified and called 911. After about 15 minutes I called 911 again and explained again that we were stopped dead in the fast lane of a freeway and needed someone fast. After about 30 minutes several police officers, including officer reyes, finally arrived and parked behind my vehicle to signal cars to move over. They attempted to move my car out of park as well but were not successful. They called a wrecker and my car was towed to lute riley Honda. On Feb. 10th, the service mgr at lute riley Honda said the technician found oil in the pcm and that may have been the cause of the issue but he wasnt sure. He blamed the oil on someone spilling oil during an oil change but I said that was impossible since I hadnt had my oil changed in over 30 days. I asked if it could be related to the recall issues and he said no, all the recall issues had been taken care of. I drove the car back to houston and it was fine until yesterday when it repeated the same issue-the car engine would start but it would not move out of park. It was towed to gillman Honda, houston, TX and they told me it was a bad brake switch and pcm.

Honda Civic 2000 with 58,000 miles with transmission failure. Honda refuses to fix because my daughter bought the car used - not original owner. Daughter bought the car on Sunday night - rush job. Daughter told salesman during test drive something wrong. Salemans said they would take care of it - wrong. Anyway - defective transmission on Honda car at 58,000 miles. Why?.

: the contact stated the transmission locked in the drive gear and would not accelerate. An attempt was made to change gears by turning off the vehicle and restarting it. When the shifter was put into park the indicator was still in drive. The dealer was able to diagnose the problem and informed the contact that the transmission control module needed to be replaced.

I received a warning light on my instrument panel in may, 2005. I was told by my local mechanic that this was due to my gas cap being loose. Tightening the cap did not resolve the problem. When I had the car inspected in June, 2005 it failed due to a "torque converter circuitry" problem. I took it to Honda service and was told that the on-board computer had to be reset and that I had to drive it around for 2 weeks and it would clear. It did not and the light was still on. I took it back on September 28, 2005 and was then told that the transmission was in need of replacement because of the electronic controls. The car itself is still drivable and has demonstrated no bumping or noises. Honda America has said that it will pay for remanufactured parts if I pay for the labor which will be $500. I have 67,000 miles on the car. The car's transmission should not be failing after 4. 5 years and excellent driving habits. The car still cannot pass NJ state inspection because of this failure. I am currently waiting for the part to come into the Honda service department and they will call me to make an appointment to have the work done.
