2001 Honda Accord Power Train

Vehicle 2001 honda accord lx . Approx. 152000 miles transmission shifting down to first when let off of accell Pedal. Causing the vehicle to skid and veer right then left on freeway at 65mph to about 24mph . No crash. But nearly. Luckily light traffic. Check engine light . Blinking D4. And TCS light came on all at once. Passenger was in panic while this occurred. No police report or accident . A P0730( Incorrect gear ratio)code and P1751(2-3 shift malfunction )code. Is present. Turned key off when it was safe ,D4 and TCS cleared ,when key turned back on. Need to see if this is common problem and if it is , it needs to be addressed . Also has a problem with the fuel pump delivery of fuel via relay . May shut off while in motion and cause car to stop running. Changed relay and no other problems with relay. Approx. 130000 miles.

The automatic transmission is failing. Yes it is available for inspection upon request. It is slipping and sometimes will accelerate extremely slow. Will also jolt forward aggressively at times. Making it dangerous and a safety issue. The transmission can go out soon and make the car stop moving. Putting me and everyone else at risk being stuck on the road.

Car shifts really hard and rough out of first gear. Ive driven many many accords from working at auctions, Ive owned two in my entire life and they ALL have shift problems. I can’t believe this isn’t a campaign already????!!!!! These trannys are NOTORIOUS for going out. Please if there’s some sort of bulletin or something i missed let me know lol! (Wishful thinking)

ANY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION RECALL

MY HONDA HAS A LEAKING TRANSMISSION AND IS STARTING TO SLIP HORRIBLY. IT LEAKS ABOUT A QUART A WEEK. EVERY MORNING A COME TO SEE A BIG PUDDLE OF TRANSMISSION FLUID UNDER MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 HONDA ACCORD. WHEN THE CONTACT'S WIFE PARKED THE VEHICLE IN THE DRIVEWAY AND REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION, THE VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARDS AND ALMOST RAN OVER THE CONTACT'S SPOUSE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ARROW HEAD HONDA (8380 W BELL RD, PEORIA, AZ 85382, (623) 562-9054) STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT SERVICE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,632.

I REALLY LOVE MY HONDA ACCORDS. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL. THIS IS THE FIRST ONE I HAVE OWNED WITH OVER 125K MILES. IT WAS GIVEN TO ME BY MY MOTHER-IN-LAW. SHE OWNED IT FOR ABOUT 7 YEARS. IT START TO SEEM LIKE IT WAS A LITTLE OFF MECHANICALLY. SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE ISSUES WERE AND AFTER 7 YEARS SHE DIDN'T WANT TO PUT A TON OF MONEY INTO IT. SO SHE PARKED THIS ONE AND BOUGHT A NEW ONE. IT WAS PARKED FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS BEFORE I STARTED DRIVING IT. SINCE IT WAS SITTING FOR A WHILE I DID CHANGE THE OIL AND MAKE SURE OTHER FLUIDS WERE TOPPED OFF. RIGHT AWAY, I NOTICE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTING HARD AND SLIPPING A LITTLE. SO I PULLED OVER AND CHECKED THE GRANNY FLUID WHICH WAS PERFECT! I JUST FIGURED MAYBE IT JUST NEEDED TO BE DRIVEN A LITTLE AND LUBE EVERYTHING UP AGAIN. I CHECKED THE FLUID DAILY WITH NO CHANGE TO THE LEVEL. A WEEK LATER IT'S STILL THE SAME. WITH NO IMPROVEMENT I DRAINED A LITTLE FLUID OUT AND ADDED LUCAS AS RECOMMENDED BY MY HONDA SERVICE TECH. STILL NO IMPROVEMENT. I RESEARCHED A LITTLE AND FOUND THAT THIS IS COMMON TO START HAVING ISSUES AROUND 150K MILES. THAT'S HARDLY ANY MILES FOR A HONDA! IN FURTHER RESEARCH I FIND THAT NEARLY EVERY HONDA FOR SALE IS BEING SOLD DUE TO THE START OF GRANNY PROBLEMS AND EVERY ONE THAT'S BEING PARTED OUT IS BEING PARTED OUT BECAUSE THE GRANNY WENT OUT. SO NO LUCK ON A USED GRANNY SWAP! I AM ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED THAT WITH THE EXCELLENT REPUTATION HONDA HAS THAT THIS HASN'T BEEN A PART OF A RECALL! I MEAN COME ON HONDA...I REALIZE THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE PART TO HAVE RECALLED, BUT WHEN YOUR REPUTATION GOES DOWN THE TOILET OVER THE 6TH GEN ACCORD TRANSMISSION...WHAT WILL EFFECT THE COMPANIES WORTH MORE? THE COST OF THIS BECOMING A RECALL AND REPLACING THESE TRANSMISSIONS OR THE DECLINE IN FUTURE SALES DUE TO NOT REPAIRING THE VEHICLES THAT PEOPLE PAY HARD EARNED MONEY FOR?!

I HAVE 117000 MILE ON HONDA ACCORD 2001 (V4) AND CAR IS SLOW TO ACCELERATE AT SIGNAL OR STOP SIGN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY ARE RECOMMENDING TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION FOR $4600 BECAUSE IT'S FAULTY.

ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES,THE INTERLOCK OPERATION OF THE IGNITION SWITCH MAY NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY, MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY TO THE "OFF" POSITION AND REMOVE THE KEY WITHOUT SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO PARK

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS HARD GOING INTO SECOND GEAR. KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH 2001 HONDA V6 TRANSMISSIONS. AMERICAN HONDA ("AH") HAS ADMITTED MY CAR'S TRANSMISSION SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED, BUT THEY DID NOT SEND ME THE NOTICE AND NOW THE WARRANTY HAS PASSED. MANY OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AND NOW WE ARE STUCK WITH TRANSMISSIONS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED AT $4500. MY CAR IS UNDER 143,000 MILES. DRIVING MY CAR WITH THIS ISSUE IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND AH DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS ISSUE DESPITE MY VARIOUS CALLS TO THEM AND THEY ACKNOWLEDGING IT WAS A FAULTY TRANSMISSION.

HARD SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON THE 2001 HONDA ACCORD TRANSMISSIONS. I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT BELIEVE HOW GREAT HONDA VEHICLES ARE AND IT SEEMS THAT HONDA DOESN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY SISTER INLAW WAS LOOKING AT A NEW 2016 HONDA. I SHOWED HER ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT HONDA HAD AND SHE DECIDED TO BUY SOMETHING ELSE. SHAME ON HONDA FOR NOT TAKING CARE OF THERE CUSTOMERS. YOU NEED TO RECALL THIS TRANSMISSION AND DO THE RIGHT THING. WE CALL THIS ( STANDING BEHIND OUR PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMERS ). HOPE YOU DO THE RIGHT THING...

I CANNOT MAKE IT ACROSS BUSY STREETS SAFELY DUE TO MY VEHICLES TRANSMISSION TORQUE CONVERTER. IT TAKES TOO LONG TO ENGAGE FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BACK IN 2004. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM SOMEONE IN 2014 NOT KNOWING ABOUT IT. ISSUES INCLUDE: TRANSMISSION SLIPS OR WON'T ENGAGE. CAR STUTTERS OR JERKS WHILE ACCELERATING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2001 HONDA ACCORD, THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILED AT 78800. I PAID $4000 TO HONDA DEALER TO INSTALL A REMANUFACTURED AUTO TRANSMISSION, THE SECOND TRANSMISSION FAILED COMPLETELY AT 14600 MILES AGAIN.

CAR STARTED SHIFTING HARD INTO FIRST AND SECOND GEARS. THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CODE: P0740 CAME UP. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND THAT THERE WAS A LAWSUIT IN CA REGARDING THIS AND THAT IT IS A MAJOR ISSUE FOR MY GENERATION HONDA. I HAD MY TRANSMISSION FLUIDS CHECKED AND THE LEVELS ARE FINE, COLOR IS GOOD, AND IT DOES NOT SMELL BURNT. BEFORE I PAY FOR A HEFTY REPAIR, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF HONDA HAS, OR WILL, TAKEN ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR REPAIRS OR REPLACEMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A NOISE UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE CONTACT NOTICED FLUID LEAKING UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND THE ACCELERATION DECREASED. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 20 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT THE RESULTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 212,000.

TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC, CLOSE CALL ACCIDENT AVERTED BY DEFENSIVE MANEUVERS BY TWO VEHICLES. REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE TO HONDA AMERICA DENIED. VEHICLE WAS ONE COVERED BY A HONDA AMERICA EXTENDED WARRANTY AS THE RESULT OF A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ALTHOUGH MI. WAS STILL BELOW EXTENDED WARRANTY LIMIT TIME LIMIT WAS EXPIRED AND HONDA DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE. *TR

2001 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER WAS QUOTED A PRICE OF $2400 FOR A RE-BUILT TRANSMISSION FROM ONE DEALER AND $3,000 FROM ANOTHER DEALER FOR A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION. *JB

TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CAR WILL NOT GO INTO REVERSE. THIS IS A HONDA RECALL AND HONDA WILL NOT HONOR SINCE THE CAR IS OVER THE AGE FOR THE WARRANTY BUT STILL WITHIN THE MILEAGE. THIS VEHICLE WAS ALWAYS SERVICED AT THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED AND WERE NEVER INFORMED OF THE RECALL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED JERKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WERE 91,000. UPDATED 08/11/14*LJ

NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. YET. AROUND 5/22 MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON. ON 5/29 I HAD MY MECHANIC SCAN THE COMPUTER. WHAT CAME UP IS TRANSMISSION ISSUES. HE TOLD ME THAT MOST LIKELY IT WILL NEED TO BE REBUILT OR REPLACED. SO FAR THERE ARE NO BEHAVIORAL SYMPTOMS, ONLY THE WARNING LIGHT AND THE COMPUTER READING. I WILL HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR IN FOR AN EXTENDED TEST BEFORE KNOWING THE FULL EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE. MEANWHILE, I AM DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT COULD KILL ME OR OTHERS AT ANY TIME IF THE TRANSMISSION SEIZES UP IN AN INOPPORTUNE SETTING AND TIME. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION STARTED MAKING HARD SHIFTS . IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT NOW THAT I AM GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. *TR

OUR 2001 HONDA ACCORD EXPERIENCED A FAILED TRANSMISSION AT 180,000 MILES. THE CAR STARTED SHIFTING ROUGH AT 70,000 MILES, AND WE REPORTED THE ISSUE TO THE HONDA DEALER. THEY INSPECTED AND SAID THAT IT WAS NORMAL. WE CONTACTED HONDA OF AMERICA (1-800-999-1009) AND THEY WOULD NOT HELP US AT ALL. WITH A BIT OF RESEARCH WE FOUND OUT THAT ACCORDING TO A LOT OF REPORTS ON THE INTERNET HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, AND HAVE HELPED SOME OWNERS PAY FOR THE COSTS OF REPLACING OR REPAIRING THE TRANSMISSION. HOWEVER, THERE IS A LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY ISSUE HERE AND WE, AS WELL AS EVERY HONDA OWNER SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE THAT THERE VEHICLES MAY HAVE TRANSMISSION DEFECTS WHICH COULD LEAD TO TECHNICAL AND SAFETY PROBLEMS. HONDA SHOULD HAVE SENT NOTICES TO HONDA OWNERS ALERTING THEM TO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO NEARBY DEALERSHIPS TO HAVE THEM INSPECTED. IT IS APPARENT THAT HONDA WAS AND IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND BY NOT ISSUING A RECALL OR AN ALERT, THEN THEY ARE AVOIDING LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO CORRECT THEIR DEFICIENCY AND ARE HANDLING THESE ISSUES ON A CASES BY CASE BASIS, HOPING THAT THEY CAN STEER CLEAR OF A NATIONAL RECALL. THIS PROBLEM IS A CLEAR RESULT OF HONDA'S NEGLIGENCE AND ATTEMPTS TO CONCEAL A MATTER FOR WHICH THEY HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF AND FOR WHICH THAT HAVE ALREADY ADMITTED TO BY ASSISTING CUSTOMERS ON A CASES BY CASE BASIS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE UPON SHIFTING GEARS. THE SERVICE ENGINE SENSOR AND THE GEAR SENSOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 11V395000 (POWER TRAIN). THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE INSPECTED AND REPAIRED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

I OWN A 2001 ACCORD V6 WITH A LITTLE OVER 136,000 MILES. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER CAR HAD BEEN HESITATING AND SLIPPING WHEN CHANGING GEARS. ALSO WAS PULLING WHEN GOING AROUND CORNERS (ALMOST FELT LIKE BRAKING AUTOMATICALLY). TOOK THE CAR IN, AND INITIALLY THERE WAS A CODE FOR IACV (IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE). AUTO SHOP FLUSHED THE SYSTEM, RESET CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE NEXT DAY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. BROUGHT IT IN AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND IT'S A CODE P0740 FOR TCC (TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH) SOLENOID VALVE CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION. WAS TOLD IT'S THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING QUITE FREQUENTLY - AND CONVENIENTLY AFTER THE 100,000 WARRANTY EXTENSION WAS GRANTED. FEELS UNSAFE DRIVING THE CAR, NOT KNOWING IF/WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO FAIL, SO NOW I'M FORCED TO SPEND $2000 GETTING THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT. *TR
