I swear to God, if I get any resistence getting this car fixed to how it should've been from day one after this "fix" comes out, I'm selling the car and never buying a Honda again. That would be the final straw.
you have to expect some resistance when it first comes out... they will adress the worst cases first then the weaker ones next... like some people rairly get the problem... enough for it to be annoying but not enough to disrupt life, others have a notchy feel. then there are the more extreem cases. for example, i had 4th pop out on me 3 times 2nd twice and this was in a one hour span at 2pm.... and later that day 4th refuse to engage alltogether under heavy acceleration....


BUT!!! im going to wait a few weeks before going in. i want to make sure that this fix is real and wont be a waist of my time and their rental..
