#10016512April 25, 2003
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I NOTICED MY 1999 HONDA ODYSSEY HAD TROUBLE SHIFTING INTO 2ND AND 3RD GEAR. THEN THE CHECK ENGINE AND TCS LIGHTS CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY. TOOK VAN TO THE DEALER. I WAS INFORMED, WITH 57,600 MILES AND LESS THAN FOUR YEARS ON IT, MY VAN NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. WARRANTY WAS RECENTLY EXPIRED. CALLED AMERICAN HONDA TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COVER ANY REPAIRS. OPERATOR ASKED WHAT I EXPECTED OF THEM. I ASKED THEM TO COVER THE COST OF PARTS (ABOUT $4600). SHE SAID SHE'D SUBMIT THE REQUEST. SHE DIDN'T MENTION THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A LARGE NUMBER OF 1999 ODYSSEYS (APPARENTLY ALSO 2000'S, 2001'S AND 2002'S.) SUSPECT (FROM A WEB SEARCH) THAT THIS WILL BE A RECURRING PROBLEM. *JB

#10016464April 24, 2003
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEM ON MY 99 HONDA ODYSSEY. REPLACED IT AT 60000 MILES AT AAMCO TRANSMISSION. HONDA DENIED MY CLAIM BECAUSE I DID NOT BRING IT TO THE DEALER. NOW AT 90000 MILES, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THE SHIFTING FEELS ROUGH. THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM THAT HONDA TRIES TO IGNORE. THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF THE SECOND GEAR DOES NOT ENGAGE WHILE WE ARE ON THE FREEWAY. *NLM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
MY 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY MAKES A HORRIBLE NOISE IN THE REAR BRAKES. THIS HAPPENS WHENEVER I CHANGE DIRECTIONS FORWARD OR REVERSE. I CALLED EVERY HONDA DEALER IN SAN DIEGO AND WAS TOLD THIS IS NORMAL. AFTER THEY FIRST DENIED HAVING ANYONE ELSE COMPLAIN OF THIS. FINALLY A SERVICE ADVISOR ADMITTED THEY ARE TRYING TO FIX THE NON-EXISTING PROBLEM. I HAVE OWNED MANY HONDA'S AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE SOLUTION AT THIS TIME IS TO HAVE THE BRAKE CALIPERS LUBED FOR THE SHORT TERM BUT THE NOISE WILL COME BACK. HONDA IS APPARENTLY TRYING TO REDESIGN THE SPRINGS ON THE CALIPERS SO UNTIL THEN HAPPY CLUNKING.
