Check engine light kept coming on and wouldn't go off. Car was struggling to automatically shift into gear. When it got really hot, car would not start up right away. Would take several times of having one foot on brake and one foot on gas to get it to start again.transmission is acting like it is slipping. Just bought this used car last year. Local honda dealership, don wessel, of springfield, missouri acted like everything was fine with the car when we bought it. Took it in there they got the check engine light to go off but then it came back on a few days later. Tried to get them to fix it but they wouldn't. Took it to another place they, hooked it up to the computer and said that all cylinders were misfiring, and that there was a problem with transmission. Trying to find a place to fix the transmission. We think dealership should fix it since we bought it there and they did not think anything was wrong even after we brought it back and told them that check engine light was still on and car is still acting up.

Check engine light is on and has to do with the emission system. Mechanic says there is a pin hole in the hose to the gas tank causing this. This is the same issue I had will my 1984 honda accord and it was covered under a recall. Has there been or can there be a recall on this 2000 model as well? Thanks!

I was driving my honda accord on a residential street, when the transmission started to shift erratically. The d4 light started to flash and the 'check engine' light came on. The honda dealership that serviced the vehicle told me that the transmission had failed. This from a car that I had purchased six weeks earlier. Luckily the incident happened on a vacant road and not a highway on-ramp where smooth shifting is a life or death scenario.

I have a 2000 honda accord with an automatic transmission and v6 engine. On 12/13/2008, the transmission was shifting hard and check engine light came on. The transmission has to be rebuilt at the tune of $3200. Here has been yearly service done to prevent any other issues. On 12/28/11, the transmission was shifting hard, engine light came on and a p740 code was found. Clearly this is a faulty transmission design and a recall should be in order. There are many people that had the same issues from years 1999 to 2001. This issue is a hazard.

I am the original owner and bought my 2000 honda accord brand new from the same dealership that has done 99% of the maintenance on the vehicle, minus a few oil changes. The car has had a "hard" shift at times for approximately a year. I had never thought much about it until the last few weeks when the car started to rev up at low gears and then violently jerking to shift to higher gear. This in addition to also displaying check engine light constantly while green d or drive light is blinking. When this occurs the car will not accelerate when gas pedal is depressed for a few seconds and then will slowly begin to go. I was almost rear ended twice on my way home with my 7 year old son in his booster seat. The car would act like it was going to go and then I had no power, could not even get over to the curb. Closest dealership is 30 minutes away via interstate and after reading multiple online complaints and stories of near fatal accidents online I am at a loss as to how to handle this. Dealership told me it was okay to drive as long as engine light was steadily on. Luckily, I am in walking distance to my job, but I need to make a decision on how to proceed. It appears that honda has known of the defective transmission, but I never received a letter in the mail alerting me to the fact I was facing possible total transmission failure that could have endangered not only myself, but my small son and those drivers around me. I have read that honda will not offer any financial compensation for replacement of the defective transmission. I am going to continue to research the issue, but if this is accurate it is a shame as I have owned two honda's and always bragged about how much I loved driving my honda. Not thrilled about owning a vehicle made by a company who is aware of a serious safety hazard and does not do a better job of alerting their loyal customers.

Transmission slips between 1st. And 2nd. Gears. Occurs often enough that it is causing check engine light to come on and stay on. Not repaired as of yet due to excess cost involved.
