Car Forum / Honda Cars / April 2006'98-'02 Transmissions
Did the transmission problem exist in the entire model style, 1998 through 1992, or was it only a sub-set of years? Consumer reports only shows an issue in 2000 and 2001. If I purchase one of these cars, how can I be assured that Honda will fix the transmission, if required?

The key word here is "V6". : > Did the transmission problem exist in the entire model style, 1998 : > through 1992, or was it only a sub-set of years? Consumer reports only [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] : : The key word here is "V6". Honda sent me a notice of warranty extension for my 2000 Accord SE (4-cylinder). The notice begins, "American Honda is announcing a warranty extension for the automatic transmission on all 2000-01 Accords, Odysseys, and Preludes. The automatic transmission and torque converter are now covered for a total of 7 years or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the date of original sale." No mention of which engine the vehicle has. That said, the transmission in my Accord has always worked a little more smoothly than the one in my '01 Odyssey. Neither has had to be repaired or replaced, though. Paul > Honda sent me a notice of warranty extension for my 2000 Accord SE > (4-cylinder).
