 Description of the problemI just had a complete transmission failure with my 2006 honda cr-v 4wd at 118,000 miles. The transmission failed within a few days and gave little warning until complete failure occurred. The transmission would slip in all gears, so i could not put the vehicle directly into 1st, 2nd, 3rd,or 4th gear to get the vehicle off the highway. Luckily, i was close to home when the transmission failed but it took a few engine cool downs to get the vehicle driven off the highway to a safe location to be towed to my local honda dealership. Honda said the transmission was completely blown and needed to be replaced with a factory-rebuild. I own two other honda's (one is a 1990 accord with about 250,000 miles on it) and have never had a transmission problem in either car. I just don't understand how i can have a 23 year old honda with 250,000 miles on it that has seen absolutely no transmission problems but have a much newer 6 year old 118,000 mile honda cr-v with a 100% failed transmission needing compete replacement. I have searched all over the internet and i see numerous complaints about 100% complete transmission failures with 2004-2006 honda cr-v's. There is definitely something going on with these newer cr-v transmissions that honda has not reported (as of yet). The honda dealership i took my car to, said that i was the 1st cr-v transmission they ever replaced from the 2004-2006 cr-v series. Honda originally quoted my $4000 to replace the transmission with a factory-rebuilt but they contacted the regional honda rep and was able to lower the price down to $3000. That price is absurd, as i just cannot believe that a transmission will only last 118,000 miles. It will be very tough for my family to even think about purchasing any honda's in the future. I have talked to everyone about how great honda cars are, with a 23 year old honda still going. No more will i recommend a honda!

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
