Default 3rd Gear problems?

First off, I apologize......I know this is a re-post but I couldnt find the previous ones I was looking for.

I own a 2008 V6 6 speed coupe Accord.
The freakin 3rd gear is killing me! It is such a pain in the **** to get in most of the time. The car has 7k miles on it and I've grinded 3rd like 10 times since I've owned it. I don't ever remember grinding a gear in any of my other cars! On top of that its like every up shift into 3rd is like cramming a square block into a round hole.
Can someone supply some insight on this? I know its a persistent issue.
How do I take care of this?
Go to the dealer? How do I prove this is a running issue with Honda?

I appreciate your help

There is a TSB for a CERTAIN NUMBER OF SIX SPEED UNITS... it does not cover all units. Take your car VIN to the dealer and ask him to see if your car falls under the TSB.
