Problems with 2000 Acura Integra POWER TRAIN

I am told that a bolt came lose inside the transmission and i was very lucky it not happened when i was on the freeway. there was no warning the car worked fine and then it didn't. it is still in the shop. they have to replace the transmission. and since i have such high milage it is no longer under warrenty. i have been without transportation for over 2 weeks and it will be another week before i can pick my car up. i know from reading your web sight that my model acura is not the one thats suppose to have the transmission problem.. however, a bolt is is not suppose to just fall out and destroy a transmission in a auto 3 years old.

I purchased my 2000 acura integra new in jan 2000. approx 2 weeks ago, with no warning, it stopped changing gears. i've been told that i'm lucky i was not on the freeway. i had it towed to an auto repair shop last friday. 2 days ago they called to inform me a bolt had come off inside the transmission and it would have to be replaced. the transmission not the bolt!!! it would cost $2550.00 and would not be ready until next week. i informed them i wanted a detailed report on exactly what had happened and all damaged parts. i have high mileage on my auto (82,000) and it is no longer under warranty. i don't think it is reasonable for a bolt to fall off and destroy a relatively new transmission. this is my 2nd integra ... i purchased my 1st new integra in 1992 and had it 9 years with 186,000 mi before i sold it. the biggest problem i had the entire time i owned it was replacing the radiator. this is the reason i purchased the 2nd one. there must be something i can do about this!!! any suggestions you might have will be greatly appreciated. *nlm
