ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
THIS PROBLEM EFFECTS EMISSIONS, WHICH THE GOVERNMENT HAS MANDATED AN EXTENSION ON HONDA WARRANTIES TO 8 YEAR/ 80,000 MILES. THIS APPEARS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM. ONE TO WHICH THE HONDA CORPORATION FAILS TO RESPOND. THERE APPEARS TO BE EITHER A FAULTY INDICATION OF EMISSION PROBLEMS OR PARTS THAT ARE TRULY DEFECTIVE - WEARING OUT BEFORE THEIR NORMAL LIFE EXPECTANCY.*AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY 1999 HONDA ACCORD WAS AT HOWDY HONDA ON 6/26/2002 FOR TROUBLE WITH HARD, JERKY SHIFTING AT 20 MPH. WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BUT EVERYTHING WAS ALRIGHT. ON 7/31/2002, EXPERIENCED EXTREMELY HARD SHIFTING AT 40 MPH. THE ENGINE WOULD REV, DIE DOWN, AND THEN SUDDENLY JERK INTO GEAR. THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN UNTIL TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP ON 8/2/2002. WAS INFORMED AT THIS TIME BY SAME DEALERSHIP (6/26/2002) THAT MY TRANSMISSION WAS DAMAGED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.*AK

TIRES
CONSUMER PURCHASED FOUR NEW TOYO TIRES AT BURNS HONDA. SHORTLY AFTER, CONSUMER NOTICED A BULGE ON THE SIDE OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. CONSUMER SAYS THAT HIS SON HAD COME ACROSS THE SAME PROBLEM W/SAME COMPANY A YEAR AGO. CONSUMER HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE BACK TO BURNS HONDA (TOYO TIRES)AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND THAT THE RESULT WAS PROBABLY FROM HITTING A POTHOLE AND OR CURB. CONSUMER FEELS THAT THIS PROBLEM CAN BE DANGEROUS AND NO LONGER FEELS COMFORTABLE DRIVING WITH SOMTHING THAT MAY BE A DEFECTIVE TIRE. *SCC
