My 2003 Accord V-6 has had more nagging problems than has any other new car
I've purchased in the past 25 years.  So much for "legendary" Honda quality.

The latest fiasco is that the automatic transmission case is porous and
leaks.   It is now in the shop for the second under warranty repair of this
problem.  Imagine my surprise when the dealership told me that "Honda's fix
for these kinds of pinholes in the aluminum transmission case is to have us
apply sealer to the outside of the case".

So, they are going to slap some epoxy or JB Weld type stuff on there and
hope it holds.

If Honda made and sold me a defective transmission case they should replace
the **** thing.
