When traffic permitted I tired to pull out the car lunged forward a few feet putting the hood area completely in the road when the d light started flashing and the car stopped moving . The motor reves up but the car wont move. I was almost hit bye a semi truck . After replacing att sensors the d light is still flashing and the car wont move . …”

“When driving at 50mph on a national highway 95s heading to philadelphia around 11am,the speed of the car suddenly reduce to 20mph and then stalled and stopped moving. I had to pull aside to check the engine. After some thirty minutes of rest,I had to return home with an idea of getting the car checked by the dealer.the dealer reorted of having no problem in the engine and I had to take the car back and running as carefully as possible without using for a long trip. …”

“I drove this 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid took my baby honestly from the shopping market. It was just at the right turning corner, the vehicle suddenly lost power to move, I immediately press the emergency button, got out off the vehicle let other autos passed me ahead by the side way. Later some kindly guys help me pushed the car to a parking lot near by. The transmission was out of work. After my friend help me took baby home, the vehiclel was towed back. Glad is not on the highway. It only just passed 100k miles. The transmission fluid was good, output speed sensor is ok. …”

“My car has a manual transmission. The auto-stop feature cuts in sometimes when I shift into neutral preparatory to downshifting to accelerate. If this happens when I am trying to make a left turn through a break in oncoming traffic or pull into a gap in traffic on the expressway, it can be quite frightening. Fortunately, I haven't been hit yet, but my wife is reluctant to ride in my car. There was a recall several years ago which the Honda serviceman told me would fix the problem, but it didn't.”

“For no reason whatsoever the transmission is no longer working and apparently there is shrapnel everywhere- according to the mechanic. A total loss in that it costs twice as much as the car is worth to find a new transmission. We are out $800.00 for the mechanic to tell us this news- for he had to take the transmission down to inspect it. A new one would be $4880.00. Could've caused a major accident or death, had this occurred on the freeway 5 minutes earlier! Not funny Honda! After looking up similar incidents online- I'm grateful we're alive.”
