3 Manual Transmission problem of the 2002 Honda CRX

Failure Date: 03/08/2003

At around 22,000 miles my transmission was feeling very erratic. Many problem happened since, shifting into 2nd gear grind sometimes, and 4th was hard to !@#$% into, must used a lot of force. Now, 3rd grid while hit at higher rpm, about 4,000 and over. During the morning, or just starting to drive the car, sometime, I would shift into 5th gear and while release the clutch, it would grind 5th gear and prevent from going in. This happened between 3-5 times before it would go into gear. I brought it to the dealership many time, and they told me that it was problem from the abuse which I don't abuse me car. There are many other same car, make and model with the same problem. Some dealership are nice enough to fix it, but around here, they just want to rip me off.
