If you read in the forums you will see some members have had tranny problems in 04 with as little as 3800 miles on the ODO. Honda has no knowledge on the problem, but it is there. Denied warranty claims is one problem the members face.

sorry but it's not....there is no evidence of anything...barring a TSB of some sort you really can't say anything. One case of an event is completly meanless. Does not mean there is any sort of defect.

You can see the TSBs for the '03 model here:

But 'tis true, there are no known transmission "issues" for '04 that didn't exist in the previous model years. If you're referring to the infamous 1-->2 "grind" or "crunch", then the general consensus I've seen is that this has actually improved a bit in '04.

The 04-05's may not have an official TSB to declare it a problem but I've read on this forum alone cases in the double digits of people having their tranny throw the gear back in to neutral in the middle of driving.
From what I recall reading it seems to be a 1st and/or 2nd gear problem only.
