Transmission not shifting right, lock out, car not moving. Van cannot go in reverse. Before it happened notice that when turning left, indoor lighting flickers especially obvious at night time driving. At stop it hesitate and when stepping at accelerator, the van jerks and jumps to high speed causing me to brake right away, felt a whiplash every time. Check recall ended after seven years but owner did nor receive any letter from honda office about the recall. Try to contact honda but told me recall ended.

All the motor mounts and transmission mounts need to be replaced. I've never heard of this being an issue in any other vehicle, but after doing a quick google search I discovered it is common in odysseys. We should be able to drive our vehicles without being concerned for the stability of our engine and tranny. This just shouldn't happen.

My honda odyssey (year 2000) stopped at a traffic light, then when green light was on, it roared big time at very high RPM, and moved very little. Lots of cars behind me. After about a minute, my car suddenly moved, and moved as normal as usual. Since then, especially when it is cold, my cars moves very teeny-tiny bit after a stop, and then suddenly pull forward. The situation is even worse if my car stops at bottom of a hill, then climbing up the hill after that is a big challenge. I was told it is probably transmission problem, there was a recall. But honda dealers said honda does not share any cost if I replace the transmission system (about $4000) which is recommended by the dealer, because it is out of warranty period, even though the mileage is now just a bit more than 70k.

This vehicle has encountered numerous engine and transmission problems since we acquired it in 2006. The transmission failed at just over 100,000 miles. After a huge fight with honda they reluctantly agreed (because it was just outside of the "warranty extension" for this known defect) to pay half the cost of the repair. Check engine lights continued to come on, in addition to other issues, including egr problems, despite replacing the egr, etc. The vehicle is now at approximately 165,000 miles and the transmission has failed again!!

I have bought my used odyssey in january 2012 from a dealer and the transmission failed at 107,000 miles. I know there was a recall in 2004 that had the warranty up to 100,000 miles and an approved class lawsuit in 2006 that extended the warranty up to 109,000 miles. Therefore, my van is still under the warranty since its at 107,000. I strongly request that this issue is resolved as soon as possible and that honda fixes and pays for the repair; or at least give me a call and discuss the matter. It is not possible for me to pay for the transmission entirely because I am a student and I simply cannot afford it. Thank you.

Front motor mount broken and side mount worn. Both need replacing. Reading blogs and finding this is a very common problem on hondas, which honda refuses to take any responsibility for.

Start vehicle and engine light comes on, tcs (traction control system) light goes on and car vibrates. This appears to be a well documented problem with honda transmissions. In fact, there's a dedicated website at www.odysseytransmission.com for people who've experienced similar problems or issues. I called honda america this morning and told there was nothing they could do even though am the original owner and this is the second transmission they've put in. They gave me a case# n012012-06-1100441 at this point am going to the dealer to have it checked out this afternoon weary of having to replace transmission for $3k.
