Total transmission failure at 66,559 miles. I heard a noise when accelerating on the last part of a trip from FL to WI. A few days after arriving home in WI, I was pulling out of a parking lot when I suddenly had no drive capability. The engine only revved as if it was in neutral. After a tow to the Honda dealership, I was told the transmission completely failed and had to be replaced at my cost. I am filing this complaint because after researching this issue, it appears to be a problem with the 2016 Hr-v. I'm only glad it failed in a parking lot near home instead of on the highway where it may have caused an accident or far from home where I would have been stranded.
