Transmission Issues
From an article about the transmission problem: Honda's Unexpected Gear Shift
Of 1 million vehicles sold in the U.S. with those transmissions, Spencer said, Honda has replaced the transmissions in about 16,000, or 1.6%.
Cost to replace transmission: $3,000 - $4,000 at a Honda dealer.
Reason to replace transmission at a Honda Dealer: longer warranty on new transmission.
Motor Mount Issue
A number of consumer reviews mention they've needed to replace motor mounts around 90K miles. More information needed. May be good to ask specifically about this if you get a mechanic to inspect the vehicle prior to purchase.
