Brought vehicle to dealer, who didn't find actual problem but during an evaluation of the vehicle detected a weakened engine mount and leaking spool valve, both of which could have lead to a loss of the engine if condition persisted. Both needed replacement at high cost, and to demonstrate that this…

After reversing out of the driveway (slowly) and putting the car in drive i noticed a hard clunking sound. I thought it was just a rough shift. When i continued to drive down my block 5-15 mph to the stop sign it continued. It feels like another vehicle is crashing into you and slamming on the breaks. You lose 'control' of the gas pedal (your foot is on the gas, you hear a large clunk and the gas pedal doesn't make…

While accelerating after being stopped at a stop sign, the car made a clunking noise and the car jerked severely as we accelerated into gear. It happened at least 2 more times after being stopped at a couple of stop signs. It was very frightening when it happened and is a safety issue as the driver's attention is taken away when it happens. The scariest part is not knowing when it's going to happen. When there is a…

When the eco button turns on, the transmission starts to make a rattling noise and it changes how the car drives. The steering wheel and foot petal start to shake or tremble. Also, the suspension on the car is extremely noisy and honda has failed to fix it.

This happened consistently every time we accelerated to or decelerated to 20mph. Took it into honda the next day and they couldn't find a problem. The jerking was very strong and consistent for about an hour or driving. We…
