2000 Honda Odyssey EX review from North America
"Overpriced junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Great van with a lot of faults. Never thought that could be said about a Honda. Have had numerous problems with the power sliding doors, jamming in the open position, not working at all to opening while driving (scary considering kids were in the van). Coupled with that problem, which seems to be ongoing, is now it needs a new transmission (at 40,000 miles). It is obvious that Honda has some very serious problems with this van and needs to come clean on this. How many other people have had similar problems and is this what the new owners can expect?
General comments?
Is this what Honda has fallen to? Power sliding door problems should be investigated by the government. Defective transmissions.
