POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
ANOTHER 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY P0740 TRANSMISSION FAILURE. HONDA HAS PREVIOUSLY RECALLED KNOWN TRANSMISSION DEFECTS IN 2002 AND 2003 MODELS. CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY 2000 MODELS ONLY GOT AN WARRANTY EXTENSION. (UN)LUCKILY, MY TRANSMISSION LASTED LONG ENOUGH TO PASS THE EXTENDED MILEAGE LIMIT. HONDA SHOULD RECALL THE 2000 TRANSMISSIONS AS THEY DID WITH OTHER MODELS. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BOTH OF THE SLIDING DOORS WERE EXPERIENCING NUMEROUS FAILURES. THE DOORS ARE SUPPOSED TO AUTOMATICALLY SLIDE OPEN WHENEVER SHE PRESSES THE BUTTONS OR PULLS ON THE HANDLE. WHEN SHE DOES THIS, THE DOORS FAIL TO OPEN PROPERLY. OCCASIONALLY, THE DOORS DO NOT OPEN AT ALL AND WILL CLOSE HALFWAY, FORCING HER TO HAVE TO EXIT THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND CLOSE THE DOOR MANUALLY. THE FAILURE HAS SINCE WORSENED. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR WAS NOT WORKING AT ALL. THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY CLOSE AND MUST BE OPENED OR CLOSED MANUALLY. BOTH DOORS WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE OF THE WORK PERFORMED ON THE DOORS AT THE TIME OF SERVICE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES WOULD IMMEDIATELY RECUR. THE ONLY WAY THAT THE REAR PASSENGERS COULD EXIT THE VEHICLE WAS THROUGH THE FRONT PASSENGER OR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. THE CONTACT BELIEVES THAT IN AN EVENT OF A CRASH, THE CHILDREN WOULD NOT BE SAFE. THE DOORS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED AND ONLY THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR IS CURRENTLY ABLE TO OPEN. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION IS FAILING AND HAS BEEN REPAIRED AT LEAST THREE TIMES. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE AND TCM INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN SHE REACHED 40 MPH, THE RPM DIAL BEGAN MOVING UP AND DOWN RANDOMLY. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY FAILURES. A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, IT FAILED AGAIN SIX MONTHS LATER. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED A SECOND TIME, BUT FAILED AGAIN AFTER A FEW WEEKS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,614 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 137,066.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, A LOUD NOISE FROM THE RIGHT SIDE. ABS LIGHT CAME ON, BUT RESET AFTER RESTARTING VAN. STOPPED AND LOOKED UNDER VAN, BUT ALL LOOKED OKAY. WHEN DRIVING CAR WOULD SUDDENLY PULL HARD TO RIGHT. NOISE CONTINUED AND NEXT DAY REPAIR SHOP INFORMED THAT RIGHT COIL SPRING WAS BROKEN AND WE WERE LUCKY IT DIDN'T PUNCTURE TIRE. THEY CUT A PORTION OF THE SPRING AWAY TO KEEP SPRING FROM CAUSING BLOWOUT. NOT REPAIRED AS COST PROHIBITIVE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I HAVE A 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY. MY FIRST VAN WAS COVERED UNDER THE LEMON LAW BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION AND OTHER SAFETY FACTORS. MY REPLACEMENT VAN HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT 70,000 IN 2004 BECAUSE IT WENT OUT. NOW MY VAN HAS 150,000 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AGAIN. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TRANSMISSION IN MY VAN. THE DEALER REFUSES TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION CONSIDERING IT ONLY HAS 80,000 ON THE REPLACED TRANSMISSION. WHEN ONE PURCHASES A VEHICLE THEY ARE TRUSTING THAT THEY ARE PURCHASING A VEHICLE THAT WILL BE RELIABLE. I JUST WANT HONDA TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR DEFECTED PARTS. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:RADIO/TAPE DECK/CD ETC.
PURCHASED A USED 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY IN 2005; AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE THE VEH WAS STILL UNDER LIMITED MANUFACTURES WARRANTY. VERY WELL AWARE OF THE TRANSMISSION RECALL. WE ARE NOW GOING ON OUR 4TH TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT SINCE THE PURCHASE. THE LAST REPLACEMENT WAS IN FEBRUARY 2008; THEY MADE ME FIGHT FOR A WARRANTY ON THAT REFURBISHED / REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION 3 YEAR OR 36,000 MILES. WELL THIS ONE BARELY LASTED 12,000 MILES AND I AM COMPLETELY FED UP. MY WIFE TRANSPORTS MY REMAINING 4 SCHOOL AGED CHILDREN AROUND. THIS VEHICLE HAS STALLED ON NUMEROUS TIMES IN BUSY TRAFFIC, AND THIS TIME AROUND I WILL NOT EXCEPT A REFURBISHED OR REBUILT OR USED TRANNY. I WILL FIGHT FOR A NEW ONE, OR A COMPLETE REFUND OF THE MONEY SPENT! *TR
