2006 Honda Odyssey

I TOOK MY VAN IN TO WILDE HONDA ON 9/17/14 FOR A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP NODULE. THE DAY I PICKED IT UP, I NOTICED A VERY LOUD SOUND FROM MY ENGINE. I HAD A FRIEND DRIVE THE CAR THE AFTERNOON OF 9/26/14 TO SEE IF HE COULD UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. WHEN HE GOT IN TO DRIVE IT, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON, MY D LIGHT WAS BLINKING AND THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF SECOND GEAR. ADDITIONALLY, THE TRANSMISSION FLUID SMELLS LIKE IT IS BURNING. I HAVE NOW HAD A MECHANIC REVIEW IT AND THE TRANSMISSION HAS COMPLETELY FAILED AND I NEED TO HAVE A NEW ONE PUT IN. *TR

MY ODYSSEY NEEDS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION OVERHAUL, AND WILL COST MORE THAN $3,000.00. I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT JAPANESE VEHICLES ARE DURABLE, RELIABLE, AND LONG-LASTING, WITH TOYOTA BEING ONE OF THE BEST, BUT HONDA BEING THE BEST OF THE BEST. NOW, I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH HONDA. I AM HOPING FOR HONDA TO RECALL THE TRANSMISSION FOR THE ODYSSEY. I HAVE 4 FRIENDS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR OWN ODYSSEYS. AND MY AUTO MECHANIC DISCLOSED TO ME THAT THIS IS A REGULAR AND CONSISTENT PROBLEM THAT IS BROUGHT TO HIM BY HIS CUSTOMERS. PLEASE RECALL THE ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION TO RELIEVE US OF THE FINANCIAL BURDEN, AND TO REGAIN OUR CONFIDENCE TO HONDA VEHICLES. THANK YOU. *TR

I WAS BACKING UP IN MY HONDA WHEN I STOPPED TO SEE IF I WAS GOING TO HIT SOMETHING. I AM SURE I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK, STARTED TO EXIT THE VAN ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, I WAS THE DRIVER, AND REALIZED THAT THE VAN WAS MOVING BACKWARDS. I HAD MY LEFT FOOT ON THE GROUND BEFORE I KNEW I WAS MOVING. THE DRIVERS DOOR HIT ME AND I WAS ON THE BLACK TOP HITTING MY FACE AND KNEES, MY RIGHT LEG WAS UNDER THE VAN AND THE LEFT FRONT TIRE TORE UP MY RIGHT LEG. MY DRIVERS DOOR CLOSED AND I YELLED FOR HELP WHICH SEVERAL PEOPLE CAME TO MY AID. THE PEOPLE WAS ABLE TO SHUT OFF MY VAN AND THEY LIFTED THE VAN OFF MY LEG. I WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL WHERE THEY STITCHED UP MY LEG AND TOOK SEVERAL X RAYS, I HAD NO BROKEN BONES. IT TOOK 3 MONTHS FOR MY WOUNDS TO HEAL AND MY KNEE STILL HAS A LOT OF PAIN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT HESITATED THREE TIMES AND SEEMED TO KINDA STOP.....MOVING FORWARD CAME UPON ANOTHER RED LIGHT AND WENT TO GO AGAIN AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO....OVER TWENTY MILES AN HOUR ANOTHER RED LIGHT AND THEN THE SAME THING COASTED TO THE SIDE AND PUT IT IN PARK CALLED AAA DEALERSHIP WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED SAID THE TRANSMISSION IS OUT. *TR

I NOTICED AN OIL LEAK ON THE VEHICLE. WHEN TAKEN TO THE MECHANIC HE FOUND THAT THE SPOOL VALVE IS LEAKING. THE HONDA DEALER INFORMED US THAT THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE. THE OIL IS LEAKING ON THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND IS A VERY POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. THIS IS A FAMILY VEHICLE AND THIS ISSUE IS A VERY SERIOUS ONE. *TR

ENGINE VIBRATING VIOLENTLY AT SPEEDS OF 35-40 MPH AND WHEN RPM ARE BETWEEN 1,500 TO 2,000. THE POSSIBLE CAUSES ARE FAULTY ENGINE MOUNTS, TRANSMISSION, OR ENGINE. HONDA REPLACED THE POWER STEERING DUE TO PROBLEMS. I ALSO REPLACED THE RUN FLAT TIRES WITH NON RUN FLAT BECAUSE THE RUN FLAT LAST ONLY 1 YEAR. I WANT TO VIBRATION TO BE RESOLVED. THE VIBRATION APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT ACCORDING TO ONLINE HONDA OWNERS GROUPS. *TR
