2007 Honda Accord Power Train

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Accord. The contact stated while driving at 40 MPH, the vehicle hesitated and shifted out of gear independently. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.

Power train recall has never been completed. Metro Honda refuses to fix

We heard a pop and the vehicle had no gears ... was told by mechanic that this should have been a recall. If it happened on the highway it may have been a fatality.

WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT LOW SPEED (10 MPH) AND GETTING BACK UP TO SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY (55MPH SPEED LIMIT), THE VEHICLE LOST THE POWER CONNECTION TO THE WHEELS. THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AS THE GAS PEDAL WAS BEING DEPRESSED, BUT THE CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN. SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO DIFFERENT GEARS (FROM D TO D2, D1) DID NOTHING. THE HIGHWAY WAS 2 LANES AND THERE WAS NOT A LOT OF TRAFFIC, SO LUCKILY THE 2 CARS BEHIND ME WERE ABLE TO BRAKE AND SWITCH LANES AROUND ME WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT, WHILE I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE FROM THE LEFT LANE TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. EVALUATION BY AN ASE CERTIFIED SHOP AT A LUTHER DEALERSHIP REVEALED THAT THE DRIVE SHAFT (DRIVERS SIDE) SNAPPED INTO TWO PIECES AT THE JUNCTION THAT IS INSIDE A RUBBER COMPONENT. THE SHOP DISCLOSED TO ME THAT THERE ARE TWO RECALLS OUT FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE BY HONDA MOTOR COMPANY, BUT MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THERE ARE TWO SEPARATE RECALLS RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM PER CONSUMER REPORTS. THE 2013 THROUGH 2015 HONDA ACCORD SEDANS ARE PART OF RECALL #20V769. THE 2013-2015 ACURA ILX, 2013 ACURA ILX HYBRID, 2012 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID, AND 2007-2014 HONDA FIT VEHICLES ARE PART OF RECALL #20V770.

CAR BEGUN TO BEHAVE STRANGELY, SHIFTING LATE, TOO SOON, RANDOMLY, SO I TOOK IT TO 4 SHOPS HERE IN HOUSTON AND THE COMMON RESOLUTION OR OPINION FROM THE 4 MECHANICS IS THAT THOSE TRANSMISSIONS ARE TOO WEAK FOR THE ENGINE THE COME WITH, SO THEY ADVICE TO STOP DRIVING AND JUNK THE CAR, THAT TRASNMISSION SWAP GOES FOR 2400-4000$ AND I DONT HAVE THAT MONEY. NOW GOING BACK HOME THE CAR STARTED SLIPPING THE 4TH AND 3RD GEAR AND PUT ME IN RISK DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT FROM 4TH OR 5TH TO 2ND WHILE DOING 50MPH TO THE POINT I HAD TO STOP AND GET THE CAR TOWED, I ENDED UP JUNK ING THE CAR. NOW MY QUESTION IS, MY CAR HAD 120.000, NO OTHER RECALL ON TRASNMISSION, ALL MECHANICS KNOW THOSE TRANSMISSIONS ARE WEAK, NISSAN ALTIMAS UP TO 2011 HAD A RECALL ON THEIR REALLY BAD CUT TRANSMISSION AND HONDA DOESN'T, IT WOULD BE NICE IF NHTSA OPENS AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS AND MAKE HONDA REPLACE BAD TRANSMISSIONS OR PAY UP PEOPLE WHO ENDED UP TAKING THE CARS TO A JUNKYARD OR REFUND TRANSMISSION REPLAMENT/REPAIR COSTS.

THE RIGHT AXLE BROKE WHILE MAKING A TURN IN FEB 2019 ON MY 2007 ACCORD WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION BECAUSE OF CORROSION. I LIVE IN NORTHEAST OHIO WHERE THE ROADS ARE HEAVILY SALTED. THERE HAS BEEN A RECENT RECALL ON 2007 HONDA FIT FOR THE SAME PROBLEM

HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. IT DOES NOT SHIFT INTO GEARS SMOOTHLY WHEN DECELERATING OR LETTING OFF THE GAS. IT JERKS ESPECIALLY WHEN DECELERATING ABOUT 25 MPH AND 35 MPH. COULD BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN IT STICKS TO GEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP LIGHT WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE RPMS WOULD INCREASE BETWEEN TWO AND THREE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO MOVE FORWARD, THE CONTACT SHIFTED INTO PARK AND THEN BACK INTO DRIVE AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHILE DRIVING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MCCONNELL HONDA (2840 EASTERN BLVD, MONTGOMERY, AL 36116, (334) 271-2500) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT A FAILURE CODE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

BROKEN AXLE NEAR VIBRATION DAMPER LEAVING THE CAR UNABLE TO GO FRONTWARDS OR BACKWARDS UNDER POWER. THIS HAPPENED AT A RED LIGHT IN THE FAST LANE OF A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY. RUSTED THROUGH AT VIBRATION DAMPER WHICH IS A POOR DESIGN.

I HAD RETURNED HOME FROM CHRISTMAS SHOPPING AT 9 IN THE EVENING ON 12/10/16. I DROVE UP MY DRIVEWAY PUT MY CAR IN PARK, PRESSED THE AUTOMATIC GARAGE DOOR OPENER WHICH IS ON MY VISOR AND THE DOOR OPENED BUT MY GARAGE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. I LEFT MY HEADLIGHTS ON FOR THIS REASON AND THE ENGINE ON. I WENT. OUT AND EMPTIED THE BACK SEAT OF ALL THE CHRISTMAS PACKAGES AND WALKED IN THE HOUSE THROUGH THE GARAGE. I WENT TO THE FRONT DOOR TO BRING IN A BOX FROM UPS AND THEN WENT TO THE GARAGE AND WAS SHOCKED TO FIND MY CAR IN THERE CRUSHING MY WASHING MACHINE. ALL OF THIS IN A SPAN OF NO MORE THAN 3 MINUTES. THE CAR WENT IN STRAIGHT SO THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE STRUCTURE TO MY SINGLE CAR GARAGE. IF MY WASHER DIDN'T STOP IT, IT WOULD HAVE GONE THROUGH THE HOUSE. I HAD A $700 SPEED QUEEN WASHER THAT WAS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. I CHECKED ONLINE TO SEE IF MY CAR HAD EVER BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE AND FOUND A NHTSA CAMPAIGN #11V39500 ANNOUNCED ON 08/04/16 INVOLVING 1,512,107 VEHICLES. I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT OF HONDA OF OCALA WITH MY COMPLAINT AND NECESSARY INFORMATION INCLUDING VIN # AND THEY NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. I CALLED HONDA CORP. AT 1-800-999-1099 AND SPOKE TO OLIVIA. SHE INFORMED ME THAT MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, ASKED MY IF I HAD REPORTED THIS TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND WOULD I GIVE HER THE NAME OF MY INSURANCE COMPANY. SHE SAID THIS WAS A MATTER FOR THE ACCIDENT DIVISION. I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT. SHE SAID I SHOULD RECEIVE A CALL FROM THE ACCIDENT DIVISION.. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO FROM HONDA OF OCALA AND IT IS ALMOST PAID FOR AND I CAN NOT AFFORD TO TRADE IT IN. NOW IT CAN'T LEAVE IT RUNNING IN MY DRIVEWAY TO COOL OFF OR AT 6 AM TO DEFROST ON OUR FREEZING WINTER MORNINGS BEFORE I HEAD TO WORK.. PLEASE CAN I GET SOME HELP FROM YOU. THANKS. [XXX].

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY REVERSED WITHOUT WARNING. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A FENCE AND A TREE. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN.

NORMAL CITY DRIVING WHEN I START OUT FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS IT GIVE A HARD BUCK LIKE ITS DEAD THE TRANSMISSION INDICATOR LIGHT GOES OUT THEN RIGHT BACK ON. THE REST OF THE SHIFTING GOES SMOOTH IT ONLY SEEMS TO BE FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. ALSO MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON NOW. I LOOKED UP THE PROBLEM ON LINE THE ECM BCM WAS REPROGRAMED IN 2011 BY JOHNSON HONDA STUART FLORIDA. I CALLED THE DEALER TODAY THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY NEVER HEARD OF ANY PROBLEM INVOLVING THE SECONDARY SHIFT BEARING BUT YET ALL MY SIGNS THE CAR ID DOING POINTS TO THIS PROBLEM. THE SIGHT I VISITED FOR THE INFORMATION SAID TO REFER TO IT A RECALL # R89. HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME.

CLUTCH PEDAL BRACKET CRACKED AND BROKE. PROBLEM WAS UNKNOWN TO USER BECAUSE BRACKET IS BELOW DASH. BECAUSE IT WAS BROKEN, CLUTCH FAILED TO ENGAGE PROPERLY AND ORIGINAL CLUTCH WORE OUT PREMATURELY. EVENTUALLY IT BECAME IMPOSSIBLE TO SHIFT. ONCE CLUTCH WAS REPLACED, THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED BUT ONLY FOR A SHORT TIME. AFTER THIRD VISIT TO GARAGE MECHANIC FINALLY TRACED PROBLEM BACK TO BROKEN BRACKET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT GEARS. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

WHEN INITIALLY DRIVING THE CAR FROM A PARKED/STOPPED POSITION THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS/STALLS. I HAVE NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT DUE TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC NEARLY COLLIDING WITH ME DUE TO THE CARS SLUGGISH ACCELERATION. THERE IS SOME NOISE PRESENT DURING OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

MY V6 HONDA ACCORD HAD PROBLEMS REVERSING UP A SLOPE/INCLINE FROM THE DAY I BOUGHT IT A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS AGO. INITIALLY IT WAS JUST A PROBLEM ON STEEP SLOPES. IT GOT WORSE OVER TIME. IT FINALLY GOT TO THE POINT WHERE I COULDN'T PUSH ON THE GAS AT ALL WHEN IT WAS IN REVERSE OR THE TRANSMISSION WOULD LOCK UP AND THE CAR WOULDN'T REVERSE AT ALL. I CALLED HONDA AND INQUIRED ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO ISSUES REPORTED IN REGARDS TO THE TRANSMISSION ON MY MODEL YEAR. THEY SAID THEY HAD ISSUES ON PRIOR MODEL YEARS BUT NOT ON MINE AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AS IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I ALSO INQUIRED AT TWO LOCAL HONDA DEALERS AND THEY SAID THEY THE SAME THING. I DID FIND SEVERAL OTHER ACCORD OWNERS' POSTS ONLINE THAT STATED THEY HAVE HAD THEIR TRANSMISSIONS FAIL OR CAUSE THEM PROBLEMS AS WELL. I FINALLY HAD TO TAKE THE CAR IN AND HAVE IT REPAIRED AT MY OWN EXPENSE. *TR

MANUAL TRANSMISSION FAILED COMPLETELY, WITH NO WARNING . *TR

I BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY POWER STEERING AT LEAST A YEAR AGO, IF NOT MORE. UPON TAKING THE CAR TO MY REGULAR PLACE OF MAINTENANCE I WAS INFORMED THERE COULD BE AN ISSUE WITH THE POWER STEERING PUMP BUT, SINCE IT WAS EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE, IT WAS SUGGESTED I REPLACE THE FLUID FIRST, WHICH I DID. PROBLEMS PERSISTED AND AGAIN SUGGESTIONS FROM BOTH HONDA AND OTHER REPAIR/ MAINTENANCE FACILITIES WERE TO HAVE THE HOSE OR FLUID REPLACED. THE HOSE WAS NEVER REPLACED BY ME. UPON RECEIPT OF THE SAFETY RECALL ISSUED IN FEB 2013 FOR THE "POWER STEERING HOSE" I TOOK MY CAR IN TO LANDMARK HONDA IN ALEXANDRIA, VA TO HAVE THE RECALL PROCESSED ON MY CAR. I WAS INFORMED THE "POWER STEERING HOSE" WAS REPLACED, PER HONDA BUT WAS ALSO INFORMED THE ISSUE WITH MY CAR WAS NOT THE SPECIFIC HOSE HONDA IDENTIFIED IN THE RECALL???????? I WAS INFORMED MY "RESERVOIR HOSE" WAS LEAKING THEREFORE CAUSING MY POWER STEERING PUMP TO FAIL. UPON ARGUING WITH THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP I WAS INFORMED I WAS OUT OF LUCK TO HAVE THE ISSUE RESOLVED BY HONDA. I PLACED A CALL TO AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC AND WAS INFORMED OF THE EXACT SAME THING BECAUSE "THE HOSE THAT HONDA IDENTIFIED AS FAULTY WAS IN FACT REPLACED, THAT WAS JUST NOT THE ISSUE WITH YOUR CAR." THIS LETTER IS BEING SENT BECAUSE, HOW DOES THE POWER STEERING FAIL ON A 6 YEAR OLD CAR AND HOW CAN HONDA TELL ME ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE NOT RELATED TO THE SAME RECALL? I WANT THESE ISSUES ADDRESSED AS A SAFETY CONCERN AND AS AN EXPENSE CONCERN ON MY PART. ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE 100% RELATED AND HAVE CAUSED MY POWER STEERING PUMP TO GO BAD BUT HONDA WILL TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. HONDA IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS ON MY CAR AND I WANT THIS INFORMATION MADE PUBLIC SINCE CLEARLY THEY WANT TO IGNORE IT. I EXPECT TO BE CONTACTED BY HONDA OR BY THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION AND I EXPECT NHTSA TO DO ITS JOB. *TR

AS I STARTED THE CAR IN THE MORNING, I FELT JERK WHILE IT CHANGED GEARS FROM 1ST TO 2ND AND SO ON. I THINK IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT IS UNEXPECTED AND CAR CAN FAIL ANYTIME AND MAY CAUSE ACCIDENT. I HAVE SPOKE TO OTHER OWNERS OF 2007 HONDA ACCORD 3.0 AND THEY HAVE SAME PROBLEMS, AND I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO CONTACT AMERICAN HONDA BUT RECEIVED NO RESPONSE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR HOME ON SATURDAY EVENING. WHEN I TURNED INTO MY COMPLEX CAR IN MOTION, IT DIED. NO WARNING. EVERYTHING SHUTDOWN. ENGINE, LIGHTS EVERYTHING. I THANK GOD I WASN'T ON A MAIN ROAD OR FREEWAY. I PUT THE CAR IN PARKED AND IT STARTED BACK UP WITH NO PROBLEM. WHEN I MADE IT HOME, I RESEARCHED MY ISSUE ONLINE SEARCHING FOR A RECALL. I FOUND ONE THAT DESCRIBED MY ISSUE. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA ADVISED ME THIS MORNING THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND MY CAR WAS EXHIBITING THE SAME SYMPTOMS. HOWEVER, MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BECAUSE IT WAS MANUFACTURED AT A DIFFERENT FACTORY. WHAT!!! NOW IN ORDER FOR THEM TO FIX MY CAR I HAVE TO PAY $105 FOR HONDA TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT TO TELL ME WHAT''S WRONG WITH IT. REALLY! WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT? I THINK THAT IS UNFAIR TO MY SON''S SAFETY AND ME. YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD RUN A DIAGNOSTIC FREE. I AM SOO AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR. ANYONE OUT THERE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS? I MAY JUST HAVE TO BITE THE BULLET AND PAY THE MONEY. :( RECALL ID # 11V395000 - POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM, PCM). *TR

THE THIRD GEAR IN HONDA ACCORD 2007 V6, MANUAL TRANSMISSION POPS OUT THAT CAN BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD. UPON INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM IS PRESENT IN ALL 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION HONDA CIVIC, ACCORD, AND ACURA FROM 2002 TO 2007. MY RESEARCH FOUND THAT THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH EVEN BRAND NEW HONDA. HONDA HAS ISSUED A TSB, BUT IT REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM THE MOMENT WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. THIS CAN CAUSE POTENTIAL REAR ENDING IN ON RAMP. *KB

I HAVE A 2007 HONDA ACCORD V6 INSIDE THE DOOR IT SAYS IT WAS MANUFACTURE ON AUG 2006 AND I BOUGHT IT THAT YEAR IN SEPTEMBER. WHAT IT HAPPENING IS THE TRANSMISSION IS DOING ALL THE SIGNS OF THE 2003-2006 RECALLS OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE HIGH PITCH NOISE AND IT WONT GO INTO 3RD GEAR. I ALSO SOMETIMES DROP RIGHT IN TO THE FIRST GEAR. I HAVE SINCE STOP DRIVING IT. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY IN THE CARPOOL LANE DURING COMMUTE TIME WITH MY CHILDREN WHEN IT DECIDED TO GO OUT OF GEAR. IT IS AT 90000 MILES RIGHT NOW AND I HAVE DONE ALL THE MAINTENANCE ON IT AND IT IS JUST WENT OUT OF COMMISSION. I CALLED HONDA AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALLS FOR THE 2007. I THINK THEY NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS TO SEE IF SOME OF THE 07 ACCORDS FALL UNDER THE RECALL LIST. I PAID 40000 FOR THIS VEHICLE AND STILL HAVE 6 PAYMENTS LEFT ON IT. PLEASED DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I AM SINGLE PARENT AND HAVE NO TRANSPORTATION. *TR
