Automatic Transmission Control Module problems of the 2006 Honda Element

Automatic transmission: when shifting from 1st gear to 2nd gear, there is a gear slippage action and sound in the transmission. Apparently, this failure is related to NHTSA campaign # 11v395000 / Honda's recall campaign # r89. I had this recall performed last Friday by an authorized Honda dealer. Before the automatic transmission control module software was updated, there was a loud knocking sound while shifting from 1st gear to 2nd gear. After the software was updated, the knocking sound disappeared, but the transmission still slips between 1st shift to 2nd shift. I understand that this failure is due to the malfunction mentioned in this recall. I expect Honda take in consideration my vehicle safety complaint and have a positive response from Honda. Note: I had not received before, a recall campaign about this from Honda.

In November 2009, the consumer took the vehicle to the dealer to check a rattle in the passenger side front tire. The dealer found a problem with the transmission carrier bearing and quoted a price of $3,300. After complaining, Honda agreed to replace the transmission, but the consumer had to pay the labor. The consumer contacted Honda in October 2011 because he did not receive a recall letter. Honda stated his VIN was not included in the recall. The consumer is now concerned that his vehicle has the problem as stated in the recall.
