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.
THERE IS A WHINING AND CLICKING NOISE FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO LINDSAY HONDA IN COLUMBUS A NUMBER OF TIMES. THE ONLY ACTION THEY OFFER IS TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION OIL AND CHARGE ME FOR THE SERVICE. I ALLOWED THEM TO PERFORM THIS SERVICE WHILE THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS.
<p>In the 2ND and 3ND GEAR has a strange sound and at the same time the car trembles GEAR 2ND and 3ND<p>The car is treated like a baby, before buying all my friends told me that Honda Accord is the best and not so ... I learned to not buy another Honda in my life.<p>That is not in warranty, but I see so many people with the same problem or think that the mechanical model of the car did not come out good
