First time honda owner need advice

I bought a very used 2004 honda pilot last may, 236k on it. Ran great except for some tire noise i was ok with. October i pulled out of a roadway and it just stopped going, it revved real high and wouldnt drive. had it towed home, figured maybe it was the transmission fluid, nothing. towed it to a trans shop and they said it was the transmission it had gone out i needed a new one. It sat there for 3 weeks and after i paid them did nothing. i towed it home, and it drove great for 3 hours and went back to not shifting from 1st to 2nd again. put it in 3rd and it drove. Ive had it parked for a month or so, not knowing what to do. it was one of the hondas that the transmission recall was fixed on so im not sure what to do or where to take it. I need it fixed can anyone help?

Considering the abuse a lot of Pilots and Odysseys receive I would say it's time for a new transmission!
At that age and those miles you might consider a used transmission from a trusted wrecking yard that will guarantee that it works OK when installed. That's all the guarantee you'll get!
