Honda Cr-v Power Train Automatic Transmission Safety Report | July 06, 2004
Reported on July 06, 2004
| PRIOR TO TURNING OVER 50,000 MILES, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED AND BEGAN MAKING A WHINE. PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY AND HEARD THE SOUND OF METAL PIECES ROLLING AROUND IN THE TRANSMISSION NO MATTER WHAT GEAR VEHICLE WAS IN. NO WARNING LIGHT INDICATION HAD OCCURRED. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO HONDA DEALER AND MECHANIC STATED THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER HAD FAILED AND THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. MANUFACTURE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED, ESTIMATED COST WAS 3500 FOR PART AND 700 FOR LABOR. I FEEL IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA SINCE A FAILURE SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURED THIS SOON IN THE LIFESPAN OF THE VEHICLE.*AK | |
