1999 Honda Odyssey EX review from North America
"Awesome!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Recalled items replaced - nothing major.
Stereo replaced soon after purchase.
Problems with automatic doors - fixed, bad ground on the motor.
Tires (Firestone) replaced (couldn't balance properly) with Michelin MX4s at about 20,000 miles - free from Honda.
General comments?
Fun to drive!
I tow a 1500# pop-up camper and it does it very well.
The Honda logos on the wheels are corroding for some strange reason.
Love the fold down rear seat. The one in my previous Windstar was literally a pain.
