CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2005 Honda Accord suffers from transmission failure. It's not a huge widesperad problem like in prior years, but definitely still something to consider.
The transmission begins slipping & eventually has to be replaced, typically soon after 90,000 miles & with a repair cost of over $2,000.
Transmission failure problems have been a huge problem for the Accord & several other Honda models all through the early 2000s model years. Honda eventually extended the transmission warranty to 93 months/109k miles for the 2000-2001 Accords as a class action lawsuit settlement, but owners of other Accord model years with transmission problems are out of luck.

Starting in September 2007, I had vibrations on my 2005 Honda Accord. Tried many repairs like balancing tires and aligning front end. On 2/4/2008 dealer stated that left front axle is bad and charged me 50% of cost. After repair dealer return car to me with no air in right tires. Seemed that to test the car, dealer removed air and did not replace and returned my vehicle to me and I drove on the highway.
