Only if they use genuine Honda Transmission Fluid. Most of the time they don't. They use generic Dexron fluid because it's cheap. Then they add a bottle of friction modifier to match the friction characteristics of Honda. Honda has a special transmission fluid and if you don't use it, you can void your warranty. So you can have Jiffy do it if you want to buy your own fluid.
idk accords that well, but more then likely its a maintenance issue!! Oil change is probably the main factor.
It is never a bad idea to change transmission fluid. However I would recommend you change it every 75,000 miles. This is sufficient on any vehicle.
According to the maintenance guide at 100,000km

Honda Accords do not have transmission fluid filters. That is why they recommend changing the transmission fluid so often. If you can change your own oil, you can change the transmission fluid - it is easy.
Probably every 50K should be sufficient
Consult the maintenance section of the owners manual.

Yes, all V6 Accords are Interference engines with a cam belt. Change the cam belt at 100,000 miles. The 2003-up 4 cylinder has a chain and no maintenance is necessary.
Yes, yes and yes!!!The number one reason for people to have to spend $1600-2000 for a rebuilt transmission is:Failure to change the transmission fluid!The Ford maintenance schedule specifies a 30,000 mile interval for fluid / filter changes.Did I mention it's a good thing to change your transmission fluid?See "Related Questions" below for more
Some require no maintenance at all. I would recommend changing it when the clutch is replaced.
Maintenance Required. It means there is scheduled maintenance due. Can be an oil/filter change, transmission fluid change, replace spark plugs, or replace cam belt, or can be something else. Look in your owners manual at the maintenance schedule to find out what needs to be done.
