The check engine light came on. Took it to the dealer. They said a new transmission was necessary. Honda had extended the warranty to 100K for the transmission so it was covered by Honda.

I use to like Honda because I felt that they gave the less amount of problems. I know problems do occur but my issue is that I bought a 2001 Odyssey in 2003 and it seems to be fine. Now the transmission is acting crazy and when I looked on the Honda website and see that there was a problem with it. Called Honda they are saying that since it's over the miles I'm on my own. That's just crazy because the fact is that it was Honda faulty part so if they don't want to fix things then they should make it right the first time. This is not a matter of wear and tear it's a matter of bad transmission that should have been fixed by the company no matter when it start because it was bad to begin with. A bad product can't automatically be a good product and this was their fault and their mess.

Our 2001 Honda Odyssey always had a bad transmission that kept slipping and you could tell it was going to go out. They would not fix it until it completely went out. They tried to charge us a freight charge. Supposedly they fixed it, but the transmission still does not seem right. There is a delay when I press the gas.

I bought a Honda because they are supposed to be reliable. Now after 1 month of ownership, a light comes on and they are telling me the Torque converter is causing a problem in the transmission, they say the converter clutch has deteriorated and it's leaving metal in the transmission. Supposedly it will lock up on me soon and they are recommending I rebuild the transmission. ???? After reading all of the complaints about other Odyssey model years having transmission trouble, I actually believe the mechanic is telling the truth. Honda knows they made a piece of crap, we need to file a class action law suit to make them pay. I'll never buy another. From now it'll be Toyota or Ford. My Ford Taurus is an 01 with 128,000 miles and has never had a major problem. Drives great, super reliable. I'd take it anywhere with no worries.

Odyssey LX 3.2L
Dependable is what Honda says. I say they suck with their cars. The first one i bought was 2000 Honda Accord, and after 50k miles it had the SRS on. When i went to the dealer they checked it and charged me 100 bucks and they told it was not covered under warranty and would be around 1000 bucks. I thought what the heck and bought 2001 Honda Odyssey. Now at 80k miles the transmission lights are flashing and the dealer told me this time 2000 bucks. Is this dependability ? I would never buy another Honda
