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.

2005 Honda Accord Owner Comments

problem #1

Accord EX 3.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 76,500 miles

Premature failure of another Honda Accord 5 speed automatic transmission. Unsure if any goodwill repair assistance will be granted to help with the costs of replacement. Original owners with a very high regard for Honda, now very unsure of what to think about their quality. 76K is too early for a transmission to need to be replaced completely and the costs of repair are way too high for anyone to afford.
