2000 Honda Odyssey

ANOTHER 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY P0740 TRANSMISSION FAILURE. HONDA HAS PREVIOUSLY RECALLED KNOWN TRANSMISSION DEFECTS IN 2002 AND 2003 MODELS. CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY 2000 MODELS ONLY GOT AN WARRANTY EXTENSION. (UN)LUCKILY, MY TRANSMISSION LASTED LONG ENOUGH TO PASS THE EXTENDED MILEAGE LIMIT. HONDA SHOULD RECALL THE 2000 TRANSMISSIONS AS THEY DID WITH OTHER MODELS. *TR

MY 200 HONDA ODYSSEY LOST ALL ACCELERATION AS I WAS TRAVELING UPHILL. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AFTER MOVING OVER TWO LANES OF EVERY HEAVY AND FAST TRAFFIC. THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY FAILED. THIS VEHICLE HAD A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN DUE TO FAILURE AT 109,000 MILES.,ABOUT 2 1/2 YEARS AGO. JULY 2007. THE DEALER NOW SAYS THAT THEY WONT COVER THIS NEW TRANSMISSIN. I'VE ONLY PUT 39,000 MILES ON IT AND THE ORIGINAL TRANSMISSION HAD A RECALL OF UP TO 100,000 MILES.. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME. ED RESENDES *TR

FOR MY 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY AT 62,907 MILEAGE. GOT DIAG. CODE P0740, INDICATED IT'S TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. THOUGH GOT SOME GOODWILL DISCOUNT FROM DEALER, STILL NEED TO PAY $500 TO COVER THE LABOR COST. . HEARD LOTS OF COMPLAINTS FROM 99-04 ODYSSEY OWNERS. FEAR MY 2ND REBUILT TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL SOON. TO ME, THIS IS DESIGN DEFECT. WONDER WHY HONDA NOT ISSUE A RECALL? PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT 3 TIMES AND PAID FOR THEM BUT, AFTER READING ALL THE RECALLS I KNEW THAT IS A PROBLEM HAVE TALK TO THE SERVICE DEPT THEY JUST FIX UP AND SENT IT TO BE PAID. MY INSURANCE COMPANY HAS ALSO PAID OUT ON THE VEHICLES 2 OUT OF 3 RECALLS I HAVE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH WITH VEHICLE WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT???? *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BOTH OF THE SLIDING DOORS WERE EXPERIENCING NUMEROUS FAILURES. THE DOORS ARE SUPPOSED TO AUTOMATICALLY SLIDE OPEN WHENEVER SHE PRESSES THE BUTTONS OR PULLS ON THE HANDLE. WHEN SHE DOES THIS, THE DOORS FAIL TO OPEN PROPERLY. OCCASIONALLY, THE DOORS DO NOT OPEN AT ALL AND WILL CLOSE HALFWAY, FORCING HER TO HAVE TO EXIT THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND CLOSE THE DOOR MANUALLY. THE FAILURE HAS SINCE WORSENED. THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR WAS NOT WORKING AT ALL. THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY CLOSE AND MUST BE OPENED OR CLOSED MANUALLY. BOTH DOORS WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE OF THE WORK PERFORMED ON THE DOORS AT THE TIME OF SERVICE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES WOULD IMMEDIATELY RECUR. THE ONLY WAY THAT THE REAR PASSENGERS COULD EXIT THE VEHICLE WAS THROUGH THE FRONT PASSENGER OR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. THE CONTACT BELIEVES THAT IN AN EVENT OF A CRASH, THE CHILDREN WOULD NOT BE SAFE. THE DOORS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED AND ONLY THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR IS CURRENTLY ABLE TO OPEN. IN ADDITION, THE TRANSMISSION IS FAILING AND HAS BEEN REPAIRED AT LEAST THREE TIMES. WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE AND TCM INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN SHE REACHED 40 MPH, THE RPM DIAL BEGAN MOVING UP AND DOWN RANDOMLY. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY FAILURES. A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, IT FAILED AGAIN SIX MONTHS LATER. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED A SECOND TIME, BUT FAILED AGAIN AFTER A FEW WEEKS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,614 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 137,066.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY WITH SYLVAINIA SILVERSTAR II, MODEL NUMBER 90003/HB2 (NA). THE EPC CODE IS 046135317279. THE CONTACT PURCHASED REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHT BULBS AND EIGHT MONTHS LATER, THE LIGHT FIXTURE FAILED. HE FEELS THAT THE LIGHT FIXTURE SHOULD AT LEAST LAST A COUPLE OF YEARS. HE ALSO FEELS THAT THE BULBS MAY FAIL WITHOUT WARNING DUE TO THE 200 HOURS OF LIGHT THE FIXTURE OFFERS. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE LIGHTS WERE DESIGNED TO LAST ONLY 200 HOURS AND NO COMPENSATION WOULD BE MADE. THE MILEAGE WAS NOT APPLICABLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, A LOUD NOISE FROM THE RIGHT SIDE. ABS LIGHT CAME ON, BUT RESET AFTER RESTARTING VAN. STOPPED AND LOOKED UNDER VAN, BUT ALL LOOKED OKAY. WHEN DRIVING CAR WOULD SUDDENLY PULL HARD TO RIGHT. NOISE CONTINUED AND NEXT DAY REPAIR SHOP INFORMED THAT RIGHT COIL SPRING WAS BROKEN AND WE WERE LUCKY IT DIDN'T PUNCTURE TIRE. THEY CUT A PORTION OF THE SPRING AWAY TO KEEP SPRING FROM CAUSING BLOWOUT. NOT REPAIRED AS COST PROHIBITIVE. *TR
