2002 Honda Odyssey LX review from North America
"Stinks!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I picked up the car, the dash lights would come on and go off intermittently.
Brake light bulbs burned out over and over at 10,000 miles.
Wiring harness burned out at 40,000 miles.
Many other electrical ghosts.
Alternator replaced at 120,000 miles. So far it has fallen off twice now.
Many other minor problems like doors sticking, Idle air control valve replaced, EGR valve replaced.
General comments?
When I bought this Honda I was told that if I really liked the reliability of a Toyota I would love the Cadillac of Japanese cars and I should buy a Honda.
Will never buy a Honda again! More problems with this Odyssey than friends have with their Chrysler products.
