Replying to: jcthoel (Sep 02, 2008 4:51 am) I spoke with the dealer about this and he said that this is totally normal for this vehicle. Right... jcthoel, please keep me updated. |

2001 Honda Odyssey, 3.5L engine. Mileage: 60557 This is my first Honda and I bought from a Honda dealer late last year. I drive around 50 miles a week (from home to office). Around 2 weeks ago, started to have problems on shifting. Check engine light is on with the following three codes: P1457: Evap leak tank system P0740: TC clutch fail P0780: Shift malfunction I have been able to drive slowly and the problem comes when the engine is cold and the first half a mile or so, slow shifting at low speed. When I turn make a right turn TCS light comes and D4 starts to flash. However if I stop the van and restart it again, the problem goes away. Seems to shift ok in the high ways after the engine is hot. Just realized that Honda had extended warranty on this vehicle for 7 years or 100, 000 miles. When I called Honda dealer, they told me that the warranty expired 2 months ago. and the quote I got from Honda was $3400.00. I called Honda Motors and told them about the problem and that they should fix it. After a week (yesterday) they came back to me said that they would only cover 25% of the $3400 and my out of pocket expenses would be $2400.00. I bought the car used from a dealer and it had done around 56000 mile when I bought it. And the Honda dealer did not tell anything about the extended warranty. And the dealer told me that the offer from Honda company would be their last offer. I have not talked to Honda Motors after this and was wondering how should I handle this issue. I have also talked to a local transmission shop and they told me that they would rebuilt the transmission for around $1250.00 and give 1 year, 12000 mile warranty. Please advise what course of action I should be taking. Thanks for your help!

Replying to: ypant (Sep 20, 2008 4:00 am) I just had one put in this summer. I am selling the chunk of junk as soon as the warranty is up (3 years). There is a new class action lawsuit in the works, but I don't know that it would help you since your vehicle was included in the first lawsuit. Everyone needs to call and give their information to the attorney. Takes 5 minutes, the secretary adds your contact info and vehicle to the database. Contact info is here: http://forums.automobilemag.com/70/6556907/technical-discussion/2003-honda-odyss- - ey-transmission-problems/page10.html You might try writing a letter to the president of Honda, I have heard that helped in some cases. Try to push the fact that you are barely out of warranty, and they should cover more... Good luck. |

The (Check Engine) light started flashing a few days ago, when my 2000 Odyssey is started (5 flashes) then goes out. Honda dealer says that the 3rd Clutch pressure switch (Code P1739) has to be replaced, if problem not solved then tranny needs replacement; no talk about any other service or charge. Independent shop says switch needs to be replaced then electronics need to be checked... PLUS fluid and filter might as well be replaced since it will all come out at switch replacement. Which one is BSing me or not telling me the whole story? As it now stands, the dealer is cheaper than the independent--which I've never found to be the case. Maybe I shouldn't complain too much, as this is the first tranny problem in 101K miles! Thanks in advance for any comments! |
