POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
VEHICLE HONDA ODYSSEY 1999 WITH 42,549 MILEAGE ENCOUNTERRED PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND THE GEARS WERE SKIPPING. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A BAD TRANSMISSION AND MY WARRANTY ON THE CAR HAS ALREADY EXPIRED. THE DEALER CONTACTED HONDA AND HONDA INFORMED THE DEALER THAT I WAS THE FIRST REPORTED TRANSMISSION PROBLEM FOR THE THE 1999 ODYSSEY BUT THEY AGREED THAT SINCE I WAS A ONE TIME GOOD WILL TO CUSTOMER, THAT THEY WILL REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION PART, HOWEVER I HAD TO PAY $535.19 FOR THE LABOR COST WHICH I DID. AS I AM NOW READING ABOUT HONDA EXTENDING THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY ON THE HONDA 2001-2 MODELS FOR THE ODESSEY, ACCORD AND PRELUDE DUE TO TRANSMISSION FAILURES, I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT FOR THE HONDA ODYSSEY 1999 MODEL AS WELL. I BELIEVE THAT HONDA SHOULD HAVE PAID FOR THE PART AND LABOR. I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS LUCKY THAT IT ONLY COST ME THE LABOR. I HAVE THE RECEIPT FROM THE DEALER AS PROOF. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I CAN RECLAIM MY $539.19. THANKS COLLEEN AHAD. *AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
PURCHASE VEHICLE 12/02, SOON AFTER PURCHASE RETURNED AUTO TO DEALER FOR PULSING / BUMPING IN DRIVE TRAN AT SPEEDS OF 50-65 MPH. TOLD COULD NOT DUPLICATE AND THE THEY ALL DO THIS. (SOME REPLY). AT 46K MILES VEHICLE CONTINUED PULSING BUT NOW WAS AT TIMES SLIPPING INTO A NUETRAL GEAR, (AUTO RPM WOULD RED LINE WHEN THIS HAPPENED) TRANSMISSION WOULD THEN RENGAGE. DEALER THAN CHANGED A SOLENIOD VAVE AND DID ANOTHER FLUID FLUSH (I HAD ALREADY DID THE FLUSH). DEALER ATTEMPTED TO CHARGE ME FOR VALVE. WE AGREED WITH ODYESSEY CRONIC TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS IT SHOULD BE WARRENTEED. AT 48K MILES TRANSMISSION CONTINUED SLIPPING / BUCKING. I WOULD NOT ALLOW MY WIFE TO DRIVE IT AT THIS POINT FOR SAFETY REASONS IN ATLANTA TRAFFIC. I DROVE IT TO WORK AND AT ABOUT 75 MPH, IT STARTED LOOSING POWER (DRIVE TRAN POWER). THE LOSE OF POWER WAS FOLLOWED BY AND HARD BUMP, BUCKING, TCR LIGHT ON, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, BRAKE LIGHT ON. I PULLED OVER AND NO FLUID WAS LEAKING. VEHICLE WA S ABLE TO CONTINUE ON NORMALLY (??) ALTHOUGH LIGHTS STAYED ON. I CALLED DEALER AND BROUGHT BACK IN THAT DAY. TRANSMISSION WAS CHANGED. NOW AT 61K MILES THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO PULSE / BUCK AT 50-65 MPH. THERE IS A RECALL ON EARLIER ODYSSEY'S TRANSMISSIONS WHY NO 2002'S.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS ON 2001 ODYSSEY'S AREN'T LIMITED TO US MODELS. WE PURCHASED A CANADIAN MODEL, AND ARE ON THE 3RD TRANSMISSION, AND NONE OF OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIPS WILL ASSIST US BECAUSE IT'S A CANADIAN MODEL. DEALER WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS CANADIAN MODEL, AND THAT WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE WARRANTY COVERAGE WAS. DEALER INFORMED US THAT 2ND TRANSMISSION WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, AND THEN SUED US BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T COLLECT FROM AMERICAN OR CANADIAN HONDA. WE HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA PRODUCT CONSUMER, BUT THE TREATMENT WE'VE RECEIVED FOR SUCH HAS BEEN A SEVERE DISAPPOINTMENT. WE WON'T BE PURCHASING HONDA IN THE FUTURE. *AK

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
I HAVE A 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY. ON AUGUST 2ND, I WAS PUMPING GAS AT A GAS STATION ON THE NORTH SIDE. THE GAS NOZZLE WAS IN THE GAS TANK. THE SLIDING AUTOMATIC DOOR IS NOT SUPPOSED TO COME OPEN WHEN GAS IS BEING PUMPED, HOWEVER IT DID. I TRIED TO STOP THE DOOR, BUT COULDN'T, ENDED UP CUTTING MY HAND, THE DOOR JAMMED, THE PUMP WAS STUCK, GAS CAP HOLDER CAME UNDONE AND COULDN'T GET THE GAS DOOR SHUT. MY PAINT IS SCRATCHED ON THE GAS DOOR AND THE GAS DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED WITH THE GAS LEVER RELEASE BUTTON INSIDE THE CAR. AN ATTENDANT AT THE STATION CAME TO HELP, BUT I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SEVERE FIRE HAZARD.*AK

POWER SEAT WILL ACTIVATE ITSELF WHEN DRIVER SITS ON IT, WITHOUT TOUCHING ANY CONTROLS. THE SEAT MOVES FORWARD PINNING THE DRIVER INTO THE STEERING WHEEL. THE SEAT JUST ACTIVATES ITSELF. I AM NOT AN OVERWEIGHT PERSON. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN FIRST ENTERING THE VEHICLE AND SITTING DOWN ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT. THIS ANOMOLIE HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN. *AK
