We have classified the 60 complaints from 2000 Honda Accord about POWER TRAIN into the following categories.
I bought my honda accord this september. it had a rebuilt title due to minor dents and blemishes to the outside. no major wrecks. looked and seemed in good condition. dealer assured me that all of his cars were insurance claims due to minor exterior wear. he didn't take any cars that had been involved in wrecks. he was an "engineer" and didn't need to screw people over for money. i had my mechanic inspect it right away because it had a 30 day return policy, no questions asked. my regular mechanic said the engine was fine but there were minor things i needed such as; new rotors, new tires, and something to do with the emergency brake. his secretary said these were all optional things to have fixed. 1 month later...the radiator goes bad and must be replaced. my regular mechanic charges me $600.00 dollars for the procedure. i compare prices and find a better price for the same radiator. unfortunately, my regular mechanic still charges me $70.00 for his opinion. i go to the cheaper place, get a new radiator and have my rotors replaced. since about 2 weeks after owning the car i notice that the srs airbag light flashes on and off randomly. a $80.00 diagnostic check was performed and nothing showed up. my mechanic didn't notice it when he drove it. i still don't know if my airbags work! a month after that..transmission goes bad when in reverse. makes a terrible grinding of metal sound and lurches when put in reverse. probably needs a new transmission which i have no way to pay for. luckily, it is only a problem during the cold and/or when i first start the engine. im very worried about the safety of my car and myself! because i've had 3 different people assure me the car is in good shape, only to find out about or have a major problem occur. i don't feel safe in my mystery car! i bought a honda after being a loyal toyota customer because i thought they had the best reputation for long lasting vehicles. i'm thinking i made a mistake. please help lessen my worries. *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2000 honda accord. the contact stated that the dealer will not honor the recall (recall number was unknown) for the automatic transmission. the dealer stated that the vehicle is over the mileage, which voids the warranty. the current and failure mileages were 167,000.
I continue to get these e-mail updates and my problems with my 2000 honda accord sound so eerily familiar. i had 2 major issues with my honda beginning well before 70,000 miles. i too was meticulous about maintaining my vehicle every 3 month at the dealer. first i experienced a transmission failure. they "replaced" it under the recall...within 3 weeks the "replaced" transmission failed. they "replaced" it again; i then found out that it was "replaced" with a "rebuilt" transmission and not a new one. shortly thereafter, i experience all kinds of "check engine" light codes. it was never ending for 6 months...of course everything was my fault. the dealer insisted that i replaced my own radiator fluid and that my radiator needed to be replaced. trust me, i am not mechanical whatsoever. it was always serviced by the dealer...finally i got california involved and after alot of hubabaloo it was decided that i might not need a radiator after all after an experienced tech came out to "look at the engine and cooling system". long story short, california called me and told me that my radiator needed to be replaced and they were certain that the engine issues would go away. this was all at 70,000 miles. this car was purchased brand new from the very same dealer. i find it ironic that other folks are having the same issues and are being jerked around in the same manner. i am a single mother of an autistic child living in the ne; i could not afford the car failing me on a cold winter day in the middle of no where. i traded it in and purchased another vehicle. i want nothing to do with honda's for the remainder of my lifetime! *tr
Car key can be removed from the ignition without requiring the driver to place the transmission in park. i purchased the car used last month and am not accustomed to driving an automatic-transmission vehicle. on multiple occasions, i have left the car in drive and attempted to exit the vehicle after shutting off the motor, only to have the car begin rolling forward or backward. condition is extremely dangerous. curiously, this is the exact problem for which the nhtsa issued recall no. 05v025000. however, dealer and american honda motor co. refuse to repair the car because its vin number does not fall within the range that honda believes to be inclusive of cars with this defect. unbelievable. car is a 2000 honda accord. *nm
Dt*: the contact stated while driving 50 mph, there was a lag in the transmission while attempting to accelerate. there was no warning prior to the incident, and the vehicle was not seen by a dealer.
Abnormal downshifting of gears. hardshifting gears between 1 and 2. reported this issue to honda dealer in year 2006 and they said its all okay and no issues. i experienced the same issue over the years. when i initially reported this issue in 2006 for my accord was covered under honda extended warranted for transmission recall, but the honda dealer refused to acknowledge this issue. in year 2010, another honda dealer diagnosed it as a transmission failure, when the car was out of warranty. i have gone to independent repair shops and they also confirm its a transmission issue due to internal mechanical issue. honda customer service is denying the warranty coverage even though the first instance of report was done while the vehicle was in warranty period. *tr
1. early (2006) i took my car in for service because the check engine was on, the car would buckle when changing gears and it was having problems accelerating. the car would not accelerate and this would occur more often after a stop. i would find myself turning at an intersection, etc. and the car would partially stall. honda in jersey city nj rt 440 replaced the erg (?) value after i took it in for service. 2. picked up the car after a 1 mile the check engine light returned and the car was giving me the same issue. 3. honda replaced an additional part, the car appeared to be driving fine for a couple of weeks. 4. dropped off the honda for an oil change at and the buckling issue when changing gears to planet honda on rt 22 in elizabeth nj. the car was returned stating no problem. the issue was never resolved. 5. i problem in recent months had worsen, yesterday 10/9/06 the car started stalling i was able to get it to a mechanic. the problem identified new transmission required. mechanic also identified the problem as being seen by him on other honda v6 cars. i want to mentioned that my car was under an extended warranty while in the shop in jersey city an of course the parts replaced were not covered by the warranty, granted that transmission would have been. i have also found a list of people complaining about their v6 transmission failing around the 85k mileage just as mine. below is one of the list of complaints i found with a simple search. http://www.autofan.com/forum_thread.asp?message=10543. *nm
I purchased a honda accord as a second owner approximately two years ago and after a couple months of driving started to experience transmission problems. after some investigation, i found this is a normal complication with the 2000 honda accord v6 ex. there is website after website complaining about this problem. i wrote honda to see if they had more information on the type of problems that could happen from this faulty transmission and after reaching the highest level person i could get, he told me he had no information. after asking if there was any thing honda could do, realizing that they have moved there warranty from 30,000 miles to 110,000 miles to cover this problem, he again stated he had no information. the honda representative did not know if this specific problem with the transmission could lead to a hazard or not. i do understand that once you purchase a vehicle that concerns are not typically covered, but this is a well documented safety hazard. due to honda's faulty construction, many transmissions were replaced or need replaced at the owners cost. i was wondering why there has not been a recall due to the safety hazards related to a faulty transmission (hesitation with pressing gas pedal, and decrease of use in 1st and 2nd gear). by extending the warranty, i believe honda recognizes they have a problem but leave many individuals to find their own solutions. i have owned honda's for years and will probably make it my last. i am now, however, stuck with a car that has very possibly safety hazards to me as a driver. even if the transmission is repaired, there are many cases of failure multiple times of different transmissions. as to date, i have not had the transmission replaced and the car continues to get harder to drive. thanks *tr
Aamco reports defect in torque converter and vehicle slips into gears in cold driving sticks to second gear even stopped. dealer never replaced tans fluids. during maintenance schedules. *jb
At 84,366 miles my car's check engine light came on. took accord to mechanic and was told the egr valve error code appeared. the mechanic said to take to honda due to recall for this part. picked car up from mechanic and car also had srs light on. researched online since i already have recall for dash light. found many other honda owners with same srs light. found out my air bags will not function if sensor illuminated. also, called honda and they said i was beyond the mileage (80k) for the extended warranty on the defective egr valve replacement. asked what honda was doing about the front airbags and was told no decision has been made. i have also discovered my car has the extended warranty for defective/faulty transmission. so when i'm driving down the highway my tranmsmission may give out at high rate of speed and if collsion occurs, my air bags will not deploy. my seat weld joint broke at 54k too! i used a 99 toyota 4runner as replacement vehicle and discovered the seatbelt warning light came on when my 40lb. dog sat in passenger front seat. my accord never has detected my dog in the front seat ever! this car is riddled with safety defects and poor manufacturing. honda should be held responsible for protecting the owners from injury including monetary repairs/ replacement costs for all of these safety defects and engine defects. *nm
Severe internal transmission damage (1) transmission began chugging and slipping (2) failure is eminent according to honda service department (3) nothing. price for replace transmission: approx. $2900. according to honda repair department.*jb
One day while driving on down the highway, my car shifted from 4th gear to 2nd gear, and about made me run off the road. . i turned the car off for about 15 minutes. i was a long way from home or any place i could stop, so i tried to go again. when i tried again, the car did the same thing, and then became stuck in 2nd gear. i then had the car towed and the transmission replaced. the car had about 96k miles on it. *nm
I bought my 2000 honda accord 2 drive in december 1999 brand new, and my first problem was the clunking noise everytime i would reverse. it felt i had hit something because it would jerk. i contacted the dealer and my transmission was replaced after only 4 months of having the car. then again in 2002 my car started jerking and taking a long delay getting in gear. i took it into the dealer and my transmission was replaced at no charge. now it's 2005, and i was advised i need another transmission because it jerks when i accelerate and it also delays when going into gear (feels like it in neutral when i'm accelerating). i've lost my faith in honda's and something has to be done about this because i know of other people same car same problems. *ak
2000 honda accord lx v6 automatic, with what else " transmission trouble" we purchased car and within 2 months would make horrible bang noide while backing up. took to dealership with complaint 5 seperate times and they lied stating they did not know what problem was and could not find anything wrong. when i demanded the service manager and their transmission tech meet me one morning i described the problem and the tech knew exactly what it was and that a new transmission would need to be installed. after they put god knows what in it i tooks it back complaining of a noise they said they had it on the lift listened to it and could not find anything except tire noise, they thing broke right in there parking lot when we went to pick it up. i just looked at the jerk manager and said to him " couldn't find nothing wrong, don't ever go hicking there are rattlesnakes that make less noise than this transmission did and we don't need to loose anymore liars on our little planet now do we?!!!!". he had no response. well now transmission # 3 is getting ready to bite the dirt, has been serviced every 30,000 miles and needing replaced with only 118,000 miles on vehicle, 68,000 since last one was put in. it will be the absolute coldest day in hell before i ever darken hondas doors again.
Honda automatic transmission are failing left and right, and the new transmission honda is replacing with are as bad as the originals.*ak my 2000 honda accord automatic transmission failed at 53000 mile after many miles of making whistling, clicking, grinding noises and generally giving the impression you were about to be stranded. honda replaced transmission under extended warranty in march of 2005 after requiring me to spend a $100 bucks to service the old one prior to diagnostics. replacement transmission jerks and makes all kinds of noise when put in reverse and hit the gas. local honda dealer (hughes honda in warner robins, ga) tries to link it to the some brake pad alignment non-sense in an attempt to get another $130 out of me. i told the service manager to change the pads with the agreement being the dealership would absorb the cost if the transmission noise was not fixed. then the pads they just told me were worn out all of a sudden had tons of life left. the car with the same brake components and pads did not make the noise until after the new transmission was installed. honda has a real problem and should be forced via recall to address any and all transmission problems or buy the car back.
Vehicle was unable to go into reverse when put into gear, which was preventing the vehicle from backing out if it needed to move out in case of an emergency. consumer contacted manufacturer, and was informed that the vehicle was under warranty but the dealer could not duplicate the problem. *ak updated 3/28/2006 - the transmission is sluggish when going up hills until it reaches 20 mph -3/3/2006. *nm
Tl*the contact owns a 2000 honda accord. while driving 5 mph, the vehicle hesitated and then accelerated when shifted from first to second gear. when pulling out of a driveway, the vehicle stopped after 10-20 seconds. the vehicle was inspected and the mechanic stated that the driver's side axle shield failed. the mechanic stated that there was a 50/50 chance that the repair would correct the failure or a new transmission would be needed. the vehicle has had two transmission repairs, but the second transmission began displaying the same symptoms as the first one. the contact will need a new transmission. the check engine light illuminated during the first failure. the dealer stated that there was class action suit in 2006 that was settled. they also stated that the transmission failure would be repaired under warranty. however, the dealer is currently being uncooperative and will not assist. the vehicle has not yet been repaired. the failure and current mileages were 161,000.
When the key was not in the ignition switch, the gear shifted from park. the dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem. the cause was not determined. please provide more information. since purchase the key could be removed in any position of the transmission lever. *tc
Within the 1st month of the vehicle being purchased a refurbished transmission was replaced on the vehicle. the srs light came on. *tc the consumer contacted the manufacturer about the problem and they indicated that the vehicle was not included in any recalls due to vin. *nm
This is the 2nd time in 6 months that i have had to have my transmission replaced in my 2000 honda accord se. there is 83,000 miles on it this time and approximately 60,000 miles on it the first time.*ak
Purchased new 2000 accord ex v-6, 4 dr-replaced transmission at 10,000 miles, then again around 55,000 miles. now on third transmission and wondering how long this one will last. also, now the srs light is on and they say the seat belt has to replaced, as well as now the alternator and tensioner are being repalced ($600 job!). based on some other complaints, it seems the two are related, as well as the alternator problems being a result of the transmission problems.
The car began to jerk suddenly and without warning. it would "choke" when the accelerator was pressed or when car was in gear shift change. the car would jerk a significant distance, almost to the point where it could have hit another car. it stalled often, especially after being at a traffic light waiting for it to change. i immediately took the car in for a diagnosis and was told that it was a transmission defect and the entire transmission would have to be replaced. i then called the american honda service contract corporation to see what steps needed to take place in order to repair the problem. i contacted a local honda dealership to set up repair. i am currently in wait on their decision as to whether or not they will repair it. i have full coverage under my extended warranty. *nm
The vehicle's has had multiple transmission failures. *nm the vehicles engine revved etween 4000 to 5000 rpm before the consumer noticed the vehicle was not moving forward. once the transmission slipped into gear the consumer was whip-lashed and body slammed into my seat belt. the vehicle driver seat has a sudden shift movement while the consumer drives that occurs intermittently as vehicle rounds sharp corners and turns. in sep 2003 sent a notice about a problem with the drivers seat loosening. the key gets stuck in the ignition. the side airbag light comes on when the consumer has something on the front passenger seat cushion. the consumer hears a rattle in the dash near the coin drawer. *tc

My transmission on my 2000 honda accord just went out. took it to dealer and even though it falls within the perameters of the honda extended warranity, they refuse to fix it. i think these faulty transmissions should be recalled. *ak
I have a 2000 honda accord lx sedan with a little over 75,000 miles on it. saturday may 4th of this year on my way from mesquite to arlington my car just failed to move. engine was running but the car wouldn't pick a gear to move on, luckily a gentleman behind me helped push the car off to the shoulder. i was stranded on the side of interstate 35 and had to request aaa come tow my car to the dealership lute riley in richardson. the dealership was closed sat by the time i got there so monday morning when i went in i had researched and discovered this was a known defect in the sixth generation accords. but i was informed at midday by my service advisor shawn that i needed to pay to have my solenoids replaced since thats what the technician reports as the problem so me being a college student and heavily reliant on my transportation especially during finals week paid for it. sure enough couple of days later same issue where the car dies again in my school parking lot and i had it towed once again by aaa over to lute riley. this time when i went in on thursday may 6th they sang a different tune that my transmission had failed and that it was covered under an extended warranty by honda so they will replace it for free but will need to keep it for a week while they order one. now my issue is returning the $350 plus that i spent on repairing solenoids that weren't in need of being replaced. i will be reporting this to honda's corporate hq like so many other honda owners have already done. please do what you can to help save other people this headache and possible endangerment of life when a vehicle fails on our highways! additionally i request that you include honda's recall\extension of warranty on all 2000-2001 accords, oddesseys, and preludes in your "safety recall" search engine (this is open information on honda's homepage but it would be nice to have it available in as many places possible).
My accord dies out on warm start ups when it is in cold weather conditions. i also called honda usa and they told me that it was not suppose to no matter how cold it was. i brought it to honda of sf twice already, but they couldn't duplicate the problem. a few of my friends have the same problems with their accords. *cb
I have a 2000 honda accord vtec v6. i take good care of it, and all of a sudden all the air bag systems have shutdown indicated by the srs light. now i am starting to have electrical failures left and right. majority of my warning llights on, my console which include battery, all doors, trunk, and brake light lights are on. the transmission is starting to slip. i don't know if i got a bad honda from the batch, but just being 2 years old, it is experiencing some tough problems. i also have the extened honda plan upto 100,000 miles/6 yrs.. but of course the plan does not cover any of my problems. i don't have money to waste on the car that is nearly new, and i still owe 23000 on. please help.
Complaint received via e-mail." am the original owner of a 2000 honda accord se. in 9-25-03 i took the car to the dealership because i was able to remove my key from the ignition without the car in park. was told the switch inside the center console failed because soda was spilled. i would have to pay to replace it. i asked if it was a safety issue, and was told not to worry about it. if i wanted it fixed it would cost me about $200.00, and the part had to be ordered. took car home, inspected under the console, and found no evidence of soda or any other substance. on 6-12-04 the car seemed to be having poor acceleration home at 4 pm, and at 1130 pm police notified me that my car was found in neighbor's yard, had ran into the corner of the home, causing $3000 damage to home and $800.00 to front of car. on july 13 2004 check engine light came on. car had smoke coming from underneath, as well as transmission fluid leaking. had to have car towed to dealership. requested they check the ignition issue. also, next day i received a call, stating that transmission had to be replaced. i asked about the ignition issue, and was told that they forgot to look at it. i insisted it be looked at,and told them what happened the last time at another dealership. i was aware of a recall on the 1999 model, and that other people with same make & model had a similar problem. *ak
I have bought this car new in 2000 and after 3 years of driving i noticed a slipping feeling as i accelerated. i was told by a mechanic that it was my transmission and he suggested doing a full flush. i have done several flushes over the last 5 years and my problem has only gotten worse. this problem is a mechanical malfunction and i feel that honda should have done a recall years ago! *tr
Automatic transmissions problems still persist. transmission has been replaced three times already. each time there is a new occurrence of problems. for this latest transmission when driving in congested traffic areas where the transmission does not always go to the next gear, it will "lag" and fall back to the lower gear as if the brake was being applied very hard. took the car to the service center and was told by the mechanic that the "transmission is shifting through all of its points normally". i indicated to them this is not the reason when i came to them. they ignored my reasons for coming to them and they then proceeded to claim that its normal for the transmission to "hang" and fall back due to "the computer getting confused as to what gear to go to". as a result its normal for the transmission to "lag" or "hang". i have never experienced this problem with the other two transmissions i had....so, this is anything but normal !!! *jb
The first failure was in 2003. while i was driving on the highway my transmission went out completely in traffic. i was able to get off the street before the car completely stopped. the repair was done in 2003 during a national recall. the car started showing signs of slipping in 2009 . i contacted honda about the replacement transmission and they said it was out of warranty. the transmission completely failed in march, 2010. i was traveling at 55 mph when the car started to lose power. this is the second incident with this car where the transmission went out while i was driving this car. *tr
2000 honda accord: power train axle-wheel bearings. both front wheel bearings had to be replaced. 70,000 miles on odometer. car is gently driven over smooth roads. honda contacted. dealer not contacted. *nlm
I started to feel a little slip in the transmission when taking off from a stop sign or backing out of my drive way. i called and set up an appointment with the honda dealer. they could not get me in for three days so i took it to midas it. the man told me i had some very bad transmission problems and could not touch it. he said it was leaking fluid out the left side of the transmission and all he could do would be to fill it up with the special fluid that honda uses. so $80.00 bucks later i got some fluid in it and then called the local honda dealership to ask why my 2000 accord that i paid $25,000.00 had a bad transmission after only 72,000 miles. i was told that ,well there has been a problem with the 2000 accord auto transmissions. i am being told to bring it into the shop to be looked at for a fee of $72.00 an hour and they would try to detect the problem. and i am being told that supposedly that honda had extended the warranty to 72 months or 100,000 miles. i can only hope to god that this is true. or i am going to have to pay at least $3,500.00 for a new transmission. why was i not told about this problem at the time of purchase, or the time of all the different maintenance schedules i had done? i had ran my honda civic up to 240,000 miles with no transmission problems before i purchased this 2000 accord and i was going to buy a new 2003 accord next month. although now i have lost all confidence in the car that i had thought was the very best on the market! is this going to be under a warranty?. *jb
I bought my 2000 honda accord brand new. i noticed immediately it shifted rough but i kept it anyway. in 2003 at 84000 miles i was driving down the interstate and the car would not go over 30 mph, almost causing an accident on a busy day. i took it to the honda dealer and they said i had too much transmission fluid in it. they cleaned the filter, and sent it back. it was still doing the same thing. i took it back and they made some adjustment, and it ran somewhat okay. several months later it began to do it again. i took it somewhere else and they told me it was something else, and that the previous year there was an extended warranty issued on the car. i was 2-3 thousand miles over the extension at that point. i knew the transmission was bad the year before. the car would not run right after that. dealer knows they were in the wrong and they were very rude with me. there has to be something i can do. i can't afford $4000.00 for a new transmission right now. i am thinking of taking legal action.*ak

The problem i have is the transmission leak(bleeding oil) this problem happens twice @ 22500 mi & 39929 mi. the first time happened the dealer added dye and told me to drive it for a week and bring ther car back for check up. they told me that the pressure hose is loose so they tightened it back that was find with me. but then @39929mi it happen again and i took it back to them at the dealer in diamond bar they told me that there is no leak because the oil fliud is at the full level. but when i asked him why is that there are lots of dirt build up around the transmission and it is still wet(oil mix with dirt). they could not give me an answer but just told me to drive the car back and wait to see if it still leak. this is so unprofessional. and all along i do feel that the transmission is not shifting as smooth as before. i know that there are a lot of hondas owners that have transmmision problems as well. i hope that this could be resolve. please let me know thanks. *ak

This is honda accord v6, i have noticed a clunk when operating the vehicle in reverse. i have taken it to a local dealer and they say they cannot reproduce the problem. they informed me that there aren't any complaints or issuances on the bulletin boards of this problem. however, there are. i believe it is referred to as the 'reverse clunk' problem. this problem is not consisent every time i operate my car in reverse, but it happens about 90% of the time. the car is operated under normal driving conditions. this is a manufacturing defect that i want fixed. when you pay for quality that is what i expect to get. i will also be contacting the honda corporation about this problem.*ak
