Car started juddering and loosing power. I took the car to the dealer because there was a "judder recall". After getting the car back, transmission is not working correctly. Contacted american Honda and they mentioned to me that the flywheel had grease and had to be replaced. American Honda denied my claim to get this covered. Cvt transmission is skipping, juddering and fails to deliver power correctly.
