Good news, 2000 Odyssey
 

Just returned from the dealer. They diagnosed transmission, it's DOA and
they have ordered a replacement one. The new transmission, from what I
understand, is a rebuild or remanufactured one. (I hope they find,
eliminate or correct the problem that is the culprit for the failure.) The
new transmission has, I believe, a 36,000 mile warranty.
Man this has been a roller coaster ride. To buy a used vehicle, the tranny
fails on 1900 mile trip home...I am thinking "WHAT in the world have I
gotten myself into?" and then to get a happy ending. Whew.

I was pleased to learn that Honda is helping you instead of treating you
the way so many companies treat their customers. I have had problems with
various companies over the years refusing to help me. It's great to know
that Honda (at least in your case) is doing everything it can to help you
with your problem. I wish that all companies would follow this practice.
