when did you get the 1st one swapped?

I believe all Honda installed transmissions are covered up to 100K from time of replacement.

what gear are you driving it on when u go on the fwy? do you do full stops when reversing to driving... vise versa? either your buying shitty used transmissions or you dont kno how to drive.
