Honda Car Forum

Hello all,

I'm currently looking at purchasing a 2000 Accord(in Canada), but have
read many comments on the web regarding problems related to transmission
failure on this model. Almost all of the comments I've read originate
from Accord owners in the USA. So I have a few questions:

1. Is the transmission failure only occuring on Accord models in the
USA?

2. Is the transmission failure occuring on any Accord models in Canada?

3. Are the Accord models that are sold in Canada coming from Japan or
the USA?

4. The warranty extension, provided by Honda America, on 2000-2002
accord transmissions. Does it also apply to Honda Canada?

5. What is it exactly that is failing in the transmission?

Thanks for any input.

It's supposed to be 98-02 Transmissions. Sorry for the typo in the Subject
line.
