Honda Care is an extended warranty program offered by Honda that provides coverage for repairs beyond the manufacturer’s warranty. While the specific coverage details can vary depending on the plan you choose and the year/model of your Honda vehicle, we’ll explore the general coverage for transmission pressure switches.
Transmission Pressure Switches⁚ An Overview
Transmission pressure switches are crucial components in your Honda’s transmission system. They monitor the hydraulic pressure within the transmission and send signals to the transmission control module (TCM). This information helps the TCM regulate gear shifts and maintain proper transmission operation.
Honda Care Warranty Coverage
In most cases, Honda Care warranties cover transmission pressure switches as part of the powertrain coverage. This typically includes⁚
- Failures due to defects in materials or workmanship⁚ If the transmission pressure switch fails due to a manufacturing defect, Honda Care will likely cover the replacement.
- Electrical failures⁚ If the switch’s electrical components malfunction, causing a failure, it may be covered under the warranty.
However, it’s important to note that Honda Care warranties typically don’t cover⁚
- Wear and tear⁚ If the switch fails due to normal wear and tear over time, it may not be covered.
- Damage caused by external factors⁚ Accidents, improper maintenance, or modifications can void warranty coverage.
