My 2000 honda shut down while driving on the freeway in 2010, restarted right away. when i took it to my mechanic he couldn't find anything wrong. since then it has done it about 10 times, a few times when cold starting but usually in summer when air temperature is very hot. my mechanic has kept it over a weekend to see if he could get the car to fail starting, but no luck. i am afraid to take it on a long trip even though it has only 129,300 miles on it.

I backed my 2000 honda accord sedan uphill into my garage, took the key out of the ignition and started to go into my house when i heard a strange noise. when i turned around the honda was rolling downhill towards my neighbors house, it stopped short of hitting my neighbors house by some shrubs and a small tree. no serious damage happened. i still had the key in my hand and when i checked the honda the transmission was in reverse. i tried several times to remove the key in each gear and i was able to remove the key in every position. i took the honda to a local dealer and they said no recall was on my honda for that problem and that i had no recourse except to have it repaired on my own. i always heard safety recalls never expired but i guess i was misinformed. i located an nhtsa recall campaign number: 05v025000 that stated honda accord 1999-2002 ignition key interlock (the key can be taken out of the ignition in any gear and the car could roll and a crash could occur). possibly causing damage or death? *tr

I recently took my car to honda with problems accelerating up a hill and sometime on flat land and they told me i needed a new transmission at a cost of $4300. i asked to speak with a service manager because i only take my car to honda to be serviced and now all of a sunden i need a new transmission. well the service manager told me the transmissions on the 2000 honda accord ex v6 were bad. this prompted me to go online and do research, and there were a whole lot of complaints. these complaints stated a lot of issues i had with my car when i first got it specifically i couldnt get my car to shift out of gear from park. my car broke down on me so much in the earlier years it was ridiculous. so i called honda to no avail since i felt my issues were covered up when i had a warranty with them. they said they couldnt help me im at 116,000 miles and they extended the mileage to 109,000 on their transmissions. i would say that this is bad business for honda. they should have done a recall. ...
