2002 Honda Odyssey EX review from North America
"Expensive overrated Junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission started to slip and would not go into reverse or drive. So it stalled on the freeway. Had to get it towed.
Took it to the local dealer. They gave a quote of $4000+. Would not give any on the repair price. Took it to a non Honda transmission shop. Cost about $3300. They showed me some broken bent metal parts. I don't know what they really were.
General comments?
I thought Honda was reliable. Not. They didn't give me any consideration on the repair cost. So that really is a hidden warranty when so many many others get theirs fixed for free. Hidden warranties are illegal. Never again will I buy a Honda.
