2002 Honda Odyssey LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The power passenger door jams quite often.
The battery has died numerous times in the past two years. I keep a spare set of jumper cables.
The clock light burned out at 20 K miles.
The side mirrors do not work.
The transmission is inconsistent. Sluggish, under-powered, and never know if it will go or bog down.
Most uncomfortable front seats I've ever sat in.
The windshield has a glare. I can see a reflection of the dashboard in it.
The headlights leave much to be desired for night driving.
Over-rated, over-stated, over-priced. My first new vehicle in 13 years and I wouldn't have another Honda if it was a freebie!
