This vehicle is recently making noise from the engine compartment area, sounds like the transmission is starting to fail. Inspection from Honda dealer, technician indicates transmission needs replaced, would not offer further symptomatic interpretation. Vehicle has all scheduled service records and oil changes from dealership. Vehicle is not driven much as evident by mileage and years old.
Have contacted Honda America and did receive case number. Internet is full of transmission problems with same model and subsequent year transmission problems. Has anyone experienced similar problems and able to get resolution through either Honda or legal or otherwise? I am really not interested in a transmission replacement bill of $4000 - $4500 to replace the transmission, less interested in the purchase of a new vehicle as an option to repair the transmission.
Advice and recommendations are requested.
Thanks
