Re: bad transmission on my 1998 Honda with only 7,900 miles. Anyone has the same problem?
The transmission went out on our 99 V6 accord with 71,000 miles on it. I
called Honda and they replaced the transmission with a remanufactured unit. We had to pay $400 for the labor. But that is better than the $4,000 the dealer wanted! Call Honda and see if they will do anything for you. They will ask if you have your service records. We had all services performed at the dealer so they had proof that we had changed the transmission fluid. It doesn't hurt to try! <youremail@somehost.somedomain> wrote in message news:c847b$42d16c90$45283079$10999@ALLTEL.NET... > In article <8a614$42d004bc$45283079$21134@ALLTEL.NET>, > you@somehost.somedomain says... >> >> >>I have a 1998 Honda Accord LX automaitc 4 door with 79,000 miles.

Re: bad transmission on my 1998 Honda with only 7,900 miles. Any
A couple of thoughts to consider. First, no one accidently put non-honda
transmission fluid in the car, right. Second, you might want to buy an extended warranty on any car you purchase in the future and keep good records of maintenance and fluid changes. I know of several cases where domestic manufactures have refused to make warranty repairs because of lack of maintenance documentation. I too feel Honda should help you out if you had the required maintenance performed and can prove it. |
