OH yeah. The 98-01 automatic transmissions in the Accords and 99-01
Odysseys had a huge failure rate.
My Honda mechanic (whom I've known for many years) strongly advised me
to do a manual transmission, back when I was looking at a 2000 Accord.
He said at one time his shop was seeing 4 or so transmissions a WEEK.
And customers were paying for them at the time. Imagine the number of
customers who just junked the car and went to Chrysler, figuring if
they're going to dump a tranny they may as well not pay nearly as much
for the car.

Re: Odyssey trasmissions
I have an 04 civic and have had transmission problems with it since DAY 1.
To date, my dealer has not done anything with the problem simply becasuse i
have no "check engine" light coming on, and there computers don't get any
"error codes" when connected to my car. None the less, my transmission
hesitates and mis-shifts.... they have even duplicted the problem at the
dealership, but won't do anything becase of the no error codes and check
engine light. I have done a lot or research since, and it seems that there
are hundereds of people out there with honda transmission problems! Most of
them on next to new cars. My advice.... DO NOT EVER, EVER, EVER buy a
honda product of any type.

the odessy, accord and pelude have an extended warranty covering
they tranny, depending on model year. the acura's have the same
problems. it's not as wide as people would have you believe.
the guy with the 04 civic just has a shitty dealer, find a new
one!!

Re: Odyssey trasmissions
I have had 6 different Hondas in my life- starting with a 1976 Civic, and
currently own a 2000 Odyssey & Civic. All I can say is all the Honda bashing
here is complete nonsense. I have had two domestics if my life-- both of
which have sent me running back into the arms of Honda, apologizing for
straying from the Honda's reliable reputation.
Also, has anybody even BEGUN to consider the resale value issue? The
research has been done many times over!

currently own a 2000 Odyssey & Civic. All I can say is all the Honda bashing
here is complete nonsense. I have had two domestics if my life-- both of
which have sent me running back into the arms of Honda, apologizing for
straying from the Honda's reliable reputation.
Also, has anybody even BEGUN to consider the resale value issue? The
research has been done many times over!

I've had more Hondas than you--and Honda earned every bit of this
bashing with respect to their 98-01 automatic transmissions. They took
many years of hard work and threw them down the drain, making them the
same joke as Chrysler is with respect to transmissions.
