2006 Honda Odyssey XL review from North America
"Awesome car; Honda needs to cancel the contract with the company that produces the navigation disk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only issue that I have is with the company that produces the navigation data DVD disk for the vehicle. When I first called they stated that the 2008 data disk would be out in March. It is now April and I called again only to find out that it will be released in July. As a consumer, tell me why I would be purchasing a 2008 data disk when 2009 is approaching around the corner? The company responsible for the disk data should offer at half price since it is being released half way through the year. How can Honda contract a company for late products? Honda needs to re-evaluate the contract with this company.
General comments?
The vehicle is outstanding. It has great gas mileage, rides like a cruise ship, and accommodates the whole family - even the dog.
