I had the same problem a few months after I got my car the car wouldn't go into gear at all.
If your car is automatic then I can help out.
there is a small square shape buttton just above the (P)parking gear. you need a small flathead screw driver to pull this button back. once the button is open inset your valet key all the way down until you can get it into drive (make sure your car is running) then drive yourself to honda to repair this problem. I hope I was of some help. good luck.

when you start your car, and press on the brake pedal, do you hear a click coming from the shifter area? it should be noticable. if you do, then the only reason it wont go into gear is if the shift **** is not pressing down the.. thing.. hm. take off your shift **** and try pressing down the rod thing to put it in gear, let me know what happens.

it might be a fuse. I hooked up the wires on my spoiler wrong once and it shorted it out, blowing the fuse. didn't think anything about it until i tried to go somewhere. wouldn't go into gear like you said. look under the hood in the fuse box. there might be one blown. just replace it w/ one of the extras in there.

I took it to honda and they replaced the fuse the guy said i had a defective horn since the shifter and the horn are on the same fuse,. but now my power outlet keeps shorting out this car is really starting to give me more problems than it is worth. thinking about selling it .

were you doing anything to your car? or did the fuse just blow for some stupid reason? the reason mine blew was because I added on a spoiler and i shorted the two wires together by accident when hooking the wires up. Were you messing around in your car? if you weren't, then something might be wrong. what exactly were you doing?
