We had this van, and three time transmission blew first time it blew at 50,000 mile, second time it blew at 70000 and third time it blew at 112000 mile, and we are not getting good response from honda customer service. First time when it blew, I call them they said you passed the number of years so we are not going to fix it free, I end up paying from my pocket. I got new transmission form honda, second time when it blew that time it is only 20,000 mile, when I went to dealer, they said they cover only 1 year 12,000 warranty, I end up paying from my pocket, now this third time it blew up, if I am not proper response then I need to think in future, I might go with different manufacture. Electrical panel is also not working. If honda making this kind of car/van and this kind of customer service, then I need to think in future, I might go with different manufacture.

The battery on my honda odyssey was found dead this morning. This is more than 10 times in the last 2 years and more than 50 times since I got it in 2007. Have had the battery replace and still no improvement. Reading on the internet suggest a honda issue with the electrical system that they do not acknowledge. A lot of people are having the same issue. Letting the odyssey sit for an hour or two somehow fixes the issue and it starts. Very frustrating and need an authority to put pressure on honda.

We were driving down the road and noticed a small wisp of smoke coming from the steering column. We exited the highway and took the plastic cover off the steering column and investigated. Seeing no more smoke we figured a fuse had blown or some such and took a short break from driving. We got back in the van and started off down the highway and for 30 miles or so no problems. Suddenly we noticed the smoke again but this time there was a small cigarette lighter type flame coming from the turn signal box on the column. We immediately exited the next exit and parked on the exit ramp. We tried mango juice to extinguish the fire which worked for a short time but then the fire was back. We called 911 and before the fire department could get there (approx. 2-3 minutes) the small little flame had grown to consume the entire car in flames. The car was totally demolished by the fire.
