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.

Problem same as other complaint. Driver and passenger front doors the windows rise fine, but intermittently wont go up. With the mileage on my car, this should not be happening. I am not happy with the electronics at all--interior light failures --not covered by warranty, gear shift light failed and not covered.
I now have a week left on my warranty and dealer says they cant fix it unless I can make it fail while it is there. It doesn't do it all the time--just on and off . When I am parked in some place not safe, when it is raining. This doesn't make sense that they cannot fix it unless it fails in front of them. My warranty should cover this when it totally fails a couple of months from now
