AUTO INDUSTRY REPORT: Honda recalls Accords
February 2, 2005
Honda Motor Co. recalled 486,659 Accord sedans and other cars to fix an ignition flaw that can allow the vehicles to roll after they are parked and the key is removed.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Tuesday that the recall covers some 1999-2002 Accords, as well as 1999-2000 Accord coupes, all 1997 through 2001 Prelude coupes and some 1999-2000 Acura TLs.
No accidents or injuries were reported in connection with the recall.
About 15 months ago, Honda recalled more than 650,000 cars, minivans and SUVs to fix the same problem. NHTSA received complaints in October that additional vehicles could have the problem and asked the automaker to investigate, according to the recall letter.
There were 169 complaints, 28 incidents and three injuries in the prior recall.

WTF is up with Honda and tranny problems? They usually have quality engines and stuff around them but seems they have a big weakness in the tranny department. They need to hire some better engineers and and solve this weakness.

I have a 97 prelude. It kinda sounds like its only automatics though, cuz with the e-brake idk how the car could roll after it was parked cuz of an ignition problem.

Yes every car does have some recall in one form or another, but in the case of Fords it usually includes fires, rollovers and death. With Honda and most reputable car companies, they are smaller problems, like the Accord recall.
