POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION SURGES. WE HAD THE CAR IN FOR SERVICING THE WEEK BEFORE AND THEN OUR SON LOST CONTROL AND CRASHED INTO A TREE. HE WAS ONLY GOING 35 MPH AT THE TIME AND WAS BRAKING AT THE TIME. WE HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING AND SURGING. THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS A BROKEN SEAL AND THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS LEAKING OUT. THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED 3 DAYS AFTER WE PICKED THE CAR BACK UP FROM THE DEALER AFTER SUPPOSED REPAIRS. AFTER READING OTHER CONSUMER COMPLAINTS, MAYBE THIS IS THE FUEL THROTTLE LINKAGES CONTROL AND NOT THE TRANSMISSION. WE DON'T KNOW. AFTER THE CAR IS REPAIRED FROM THE ACCIDENT WE ARE TAKING BACK TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR MORE WORK ON TRANSMISSION/FUEL THROTTLE PROBLEM.*AK

AS I APPROACHED A STOPPED VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES FAILED TO RESPOND AT ALL. THE PEDAL RESPONDED APPROPRIATELY, HOWEVER THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN AT ALL.
