I have Honda Care for 120k miles / 8 years. Just this week I took the car to the dealership for the second time to ask them to fix the issue with the transmission. The manual transmission does not always shift into the the third gear smoothly. The first time when I took the car in the mechanical advisor was not able to reproduce the problem. The second time we were able to. However, the service center cam back and said that American Honda wants me to bear the cost of the tear down for the transmission which is north of $2,000. I am stumped. What do I do? My car is extremely well maintained and attended to by this dealership, but they refuse to do anything unless I approve this expense.

I also have the Honda Care 120k/8 year and it is the most useless extended car warranty I have ever owned, every time you take it to a Honda Dealer to get repaired they find some excuse to keep you from using it, Honda Care= Ripoff.

What about extended warranties due to recall on Ignition coils if they dont specify which coils then does that mean all coils should be replaced at time of recall extended warranty repair? I took my 2005 Lincoln LSE in to the dealership for the recall repair because it was misfiring, but they only replaced two of the 8 coils now here I am less than a year since repair and two more have gone out and I am no longer in extended warranty coverage are they responsible since they did not do it during first repair. It did not specify coils on certain valves it said recall on ignition coils in general as i took to mean all of them should have been replaced when the first two went bad
