Odyssey LX 3.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 116,600 miles

We took our honda in at 75k miles to JEFF WYLER HONDA of florence Kentucky when the transmission started acting rough and reverse was clunking into gear. We had also gotten the recall notice on the transmission. They said that nothing was wrong with the vehicle and that I needed to wait until the ck. engine light came on which would be enough of an indicator for them to replace the Trans. Our trans. kept getting worse and worse until a few days ago the CK engine light came on at 116,000 miles so we took it in and they still deny that there is anything wrong with the trans. I asked them if they had drove it? They said around the lot. (come on, around the lot) what a joke!!! They didn't want to fix it. They also said that any work needing to be done to the trans. I would have to pay for which would be 3500$. How convenient now that it is out of warranty on the recall notice. Ridiculous!! They did admit that it needed an EGR which I also received a recall notice on and that would be 370$ out of me pocket. There is one more thing that it needed, which was a new catalytic converter which would cost my family 1375$ I would also like to say that maybe I would expect things to go wrong if I treated this van poorly, but it has been well taken care of, and always had regular oil changes and maintenance work done to it. There is no way in hell that my wife and I will put over $5000.00 into this van with only 116K miles. We own a Toyota Camry that has 175K miles on it and we have never had to put a dimes worth of work in it. I have read thousands of other complaints in this Honda Odyssey, and I wonder why so many people are willing to let Honda put a 2nd, 3rd and 4th transmission which is the exact same faulty transmission back into their vehicle?? My wife and I have decided that we will never own another Honda product as long as we live. My plea to everyone reading this is any company with as many documented problems an Honda has and who is not willing to own up to the problems and make them right is NOT a company you want to do business with.
