CAR WILL LOSE POWER AT HIGH SPEEDS AND LOW SPEEDS FOR 10-15 SECONDS 2X - 3X IN A 15 MILE DRIVE. DANGEROUS IF I'M IN FAST LANE OR CAN'T PULL AWAY FROM LIGHT. DON'T EVER ACCELERATE HARD, FEAR OF SLIPPAGE. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACING. COST $6100. CALLED DEALER SERVICE MANAGER AND ASKED FOR ASSISTANCE. HE CALLED HONDA FACTORY REP AND REDUCED COST TO $3440. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING OUR FAMILY BACK TO ELKO, NEVADA 54 MILES OUT OF WENDOVER UTAH OUR CAR MADE A SOUND AS IF WE HAD A FLAT TIRE OR HAD HIT SOMETHING WE PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. NOTHING, MY HUSBAND THEN PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE NO MOVEMENT REVERSE NO PROBLEM. OUR VAN WAS TOWED TO SLC, UTAH TO THE DEALERSHIP WE PURCHASED THE CAR FROM, THE NEXT DAY WE WERE INFORMED THAT WE NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION AT THE COST OF $5600.00. MY VAN HAS ONLY 99,000 MILES ON IT AND IT IS A HONDA! THIS HAPPENED THREE DAYS AGO I HAVE CALL INTO THE HONDA CORPORATION WAITING TO HEAR WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY AND WHAT THEY ARE WILLING TO DO. MY MAIN CONCERN WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD OUR FAMILY BEEN IN CITY TRAFFIC! *TR

INTERNET SEARCH REVEALS NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THIS PARTICULAR ODYSSEY ENGINE. OWNER BELIEVES HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ENGINE PROBLEMS DUE TO NUMBER OF ISSUES. POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE, AS FAILURE TO SHIFT CAUSES VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER, AND ONLY ABLE TO RE-ENGAGE IF SLOWED TO 1ST OR 2ND GEAR. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
PURCHASED 2002 ODYSSEY IN DEC. 2001. I PAID OVER $31,000 INCLUDING A 6YR 75,000 WARRANTY. WHEN I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE BACK IN 2004 THE ODYSSEY ONLY HAD 13, 460 MILES ON IT AND BECAUSE IT WAS SHY 1300 MILES, THE DEALER REFUSED TO INSTALL A NEW TRANSMISSION THEY ONLY INSTALLED SOME JET KIT. THEY PERFORMED A TRANSMISSION FLUSH AT 17180 MILES THAN AGAIN AT 29435 BECAUSE I COMPLAINED THAT IT WAS SHIFTING HARD. THAT WAS 2 TRANSMISSION FLUSHES IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS, WHEN THEIR MAINTENANCE SPECIFICATIONS SUPPOSEDLY IS TO BE REPLACED AT 45,000 MILES THAN AGAIN AT 75, 000. AND THE HONDA CORPORATION DOES NOT WANT TO ADMIT THAT THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW, COME ON THERE IS OVER 500 PEOPLE ON THE NHTSA SITE JUST LOOKING TO HAVE A $35000 PIECE OF SCRAP METAL PARKED AT THE HOME FOR NO REASON BECAUSE WE JUST HAVE MONEY TO THROW AWAY LIKE THAT, I USE TO HAVE PRIDE OF HONDA OWNERSHIP, NOW ALL I FEEL IS RIPPED OFF. I HAVE 5 KIDS AND IN THEIR LIFETIME I DO NOT THINK THAT I HAVE SPENT $35000 DOLLARS ON THEM AND THEY WON'T LEAVE ME STRANDED AT 63, 600 MILES WITH OUT A MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION FOR THEM. WHAT A RIP OFF, OF THAT $35, 000 THAT I HAVE INVESTED IN THEIR CORPORATION, THEY DO NOT EVEN HAVE THE COMMON COURTESY TO PICK UP THE COST THEMSELVES . WHAT COWARDS, PEOPLE WORK HARD FOR THEIR MONEY AND WE ARE TRANSPORTING KIDS, I HAVE 5 KIDS, 4 ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 6, INCLUDING A SET OF TWINS. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR? FOR SOMEONE TO LOSE THE LIFE OF A CHILD OR TWO. THIS IS RIDICULOUS, THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AND YET THEY ARE ONLY WILLING TO PUT THE COST OF 50%. HAVEN'T WE ALREADY INVESTED ENOUGH NOT TO MENTION THE STRESS OF DRIVING A CAR IN FEAR OF LOOSING YOUR LIFE! *TR THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. UPDATED 11/18/08. *JB

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TRANSMISSION FAILURE ON 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE HONDA SERVICE PLAN FOR THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN STRICTLY FOLLOWED WITH SERVICE BEING PERFORMED BY THE HONDA DEALER. AT 90,000 MILES MY VAN STARTED EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH NO INDICATED FAULTS (SLIPPING WHEN SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR). THE DEALER QUOTED ME $3,000 TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION WITH A REBUILT TRANSMISSION. PER WHAT I HAVE READ THIS SAME PROBLEM IS SURFACING IN MOST HONDA VANS. IN TEN MONTHS THE PRIVATE PARTY RE-SALE VALUE ON THE VAN HAS GONE FROM $10,500 TO $7,500. IT IS MY COMPLAINT THAT HONDA IS WELL AWARE OF THIS DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM BUT HAS NOT OFFERED TO PROPERLY ADDRESS IT. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL
MY HUSBAND, 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND MYSELF WERE DRIVING TO MAINE FROM NEW JERSEY AFTER PURCHASING OUR USED 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY JUST THE PREVIOUS MONTH AT 102000 MILES. ONLY AN HOUR INTO THE TRIP AFTER PASSING THROUGH THE TOLL PLAZA AND GETTING ONTO THE NY THRUWAY THE VAN HAD NO CONTROL. I PUSHED THE BRAKE AND THE VAN ACCELERATED, I PUSHED THE GAS AND THE VAN LURCHED TO A STOP AS IF SOMEONE PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. I LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING AND THERE WAS NO SHOULDER TO PULL OVER TO SINCE THERE WAS CONSTRUCTION. CARS, AND 18 WHEELERS WERE FLYING PAST ME AND I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE. AFTER PUTTING MY HAZARDS ON AND DRIVING NO MORE THEN 5 MILES AN HOUR I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. AT THIS TIME ALL THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AND SMOKE STARTED POURING OUT OF THE HOOD. WE GOT IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST HONDA DEALERSHIP, AND THEY TOLD US THE TRANSMISSION WAS FRIED AND THE DEALER THAT SOLD IT TO US HAD OVERFILLED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID BY 3 QUARTS. THEY SAID WE WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. OUR WARRANTY SHIPPED A REBUILT TRANSMISSION. NOW AFTER ONLY PUTTING AROUND 2000 MILES ON IT AND ONLY 2 MONTHS LATER WE ARE STARTING TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. IT BUCKS WHEN IT SHIFTS, IT BRAKES WHEN I ACCELERATE AND THE WHOLE CAR SHAKES WHEN I SHIFT. I HAVE A 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND I AM SCARED FOR OUR LIVES TO DRIVE IN THIS, AS MOST OF OUR EXTENDED FAMILIES LIVE 1 HOUR OR MORE SO THAT REQUIRES US TO DRIVE ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS. THIS IS DEFINITELY A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2002 HONDA ODYSSEY EX TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I HAVE A ODYSSEY WITH CONTINUOUS ISSUE REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION. I BOUGHT THIS CAR THINKING THAT I WAS PUTTING MY FAMILY IS A SAFE RELIABLE VEHICLE AND I WOULD SOON FIND OUT I WAS VERY WRONG. THE DEALERSHIP WILL DO NOTHING TO ASSIST . I HAD A 2 WEEK WARRANTY FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THE VEHICLE SPENT 10 DAYS WITH THEM TRYING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. WITHOUT CHOICE I SEND MY FAMILY OUT IN THIS VEHICLE EVERYDAY. EVERY DAY MY WIFE TELLS ME HOW THE CAR WILL START TO BUCK AND VIBRATE AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING. I SUGGEST TO HER TO CHANGE HER DRIVING HABITS AND THESE CHANGES SEAM TO MAKE THINGS WORSE AT TIMES. ACCORDING TO HONDA THEY WILL PUT ANOTHER FAULTY TRANSMISSION IN MY VEHICLE WITH MONEY OUT OF MY POCKET. I GUESS MY ONLY OPTION IS TO SELL THIS VEHICLE AND MAKE THIS SOMEONE ELSE'S PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS INJUSTICE THAT HONDA IS ABLE TO PUT THESE VEHICLES ON US ROADS. I CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY CLAIM THAT THEY WILL PAY 50% OF PARTS SO I AM ON THE HOOK FOR $2000+ FOR SOMETHING THAT WILL JUST FAIL AGAIN. I HAVE JUST RECENTLY READ AN ARTICLE THAT CONCERNING AN INCIDENT THAT DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING TRANSMISSION A MAINE FAMILY WERE IN A HORRIFIC ACCIDENT DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION DISLODGING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CAUSING THE CAR TO FLIP. I HAVE READ ALL THE REVIEWS ON THIS ISSUE AND ALL OF THE OWNER COMMENTS AND I AM DUMBFOUNDED THAT THEY THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED IN 8 YEARS AND THEY CONTINUE TO MALFUNCTIONING TRANSMISSION IN THESE VEHICLES. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SELL THESE VEHICLES IN THE US. I HAVE READ THAT THE AMOUNT OF AFFECTED PEOPLE CONCERNING THIS ISSUE HAS TOPPED 500,000. THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL ALL THE VEHICLES JUST AS TOYOTA HAS FOR THE DETERIORATING FRAMES. ATLEAST THAT IS A VISUAL ISSUE AND ONE THAT YOU COULD BE ADDRESSED. THIS TRANSMISSION THING WE HAVE NO IDEA IF OR WHEN YOU COULD BE IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

EQUIPMENT, TIRES:VALVE
THIS COMPLAINT DOES NOT CONCERN A FAILURE. IT DOES HOWEVER ADDRESS A RECALLED TIRE VALVE STEM, TECH INTERNATIONAL / TR413. AFTER HAVING 4 NEW TIRES AND VALVE STEMS INSTALLED ON MY 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY MINIVAN ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO, I LEARNED OF THE RECALL NOTICE IN CONSUMER REPORTS MAGAZINE. SINCE THEN I WENT TO WALMART STORE IN KENNER, LA.(SUBURB OF NEW ORLEANS) WHERE THE VALVE STEMS WERE INSTALLED AND GOT ONE OF THE STEMS THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING INSTALLED AND IT IS A TR413. AS YET I HAVE NOT HAD A PROBLEM WITH ANY OF THE 4 STEMS THAT WERE RECENTLY REPLACED, HOWEVER I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR RECALL AND THEIR CURRENT AVAILABILITY AND USE AT A MAJOR RETAILER. I ALSO WENT TO SAM'S CLUB IN KENNER LA. AND FOUND THAT THEY HAD THE SAME STEM ON HAND THERE TOO I PLAN TO HAVE THE STEMS ON MY VAN REPLACED ASAP AS TECH INTERNATIONAL HAS OFFERED TO DO SO UPON MY REQUEST. MY MAIN CONCERN IS WHY THE VALVE STEMS IN QUESTION HAVE NOT BEEN REMOVED FROM INVENTORY AT WALMART, SAM'S AND ANY OTHER OUTLETS THAT RECEIVED THEM ? ACCORDING TO CONSUMER REPORTS MAGAZINE, A FATAL ROLLOVER CRASH HAS ALREADY OCCURRED IN ORLANDO, FLA. AND 2 RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED BY TECH INTERNATIONAL SINCE THEN. *TR

TRANSMISSION ON 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY WITH 49,000 MILES IS SLIPPING AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH. DEALER RECOMMENDS THAT TRANSMISSION BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $3000.

I HAVE A 2002 ODYSSEY WITH 101,000 MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION JUST FAILED. DEALER IS SAYING $4,600 TO REPLACE IT WITH A REBUILT ONE, PLUS $396 FOR TWO CRACKED ENGINE MOUNTS (CAUSED BY THE VIOLENT SHAKING OF THE VAN DUE TO THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION). THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS THE RECALL IN 2004 AND I HAD THE VAN INSPECTED AT THAT TIME AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. THEY SEEM TO IMPLY THAT SINCE THEY INSPECTED THE VAN AT 30,000 MILES, THEY'RE OFF THE HOOK. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH AMERICAN HONDA AND AM WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER REAR SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT LATCH COMPLETELY. WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING THE DOOR DISENGAGES AND CAUSES THE BUZZER TO SOUND. BECAUSE THE DOOR DOES NOT LATCH OR CLOSE COMPLETELY THE DOOR CANNOT BE LOCKED.
