#841 of 1290 2002 honda odyssey transmission by suefisch Oct 06, 2008 (8:20 am)
The transmission in my 2002 Honda Odyssey needs to be replaced at 87,000 mile. I bought the 7 year extended warranty. It expired on Friday, Oct. 3rd. I didn't drive it on Friday. On Saturday, Oct 4th I started the car and the MIL was on and the D was blinking. I just brought it to the dealer. I have to pay for labor ($1200) Honda is paying for parts ($3800). How unbelievable is this?!!!! Replies to this message: rfreitas (Oct 06, 2008 8:32 am) suefisch (Oct 06, 2008 1:09 pm) bobber1 (Oct 06, 2008 4:04 pm) suefisch (Oct 06, 2008 4:26 pm)

Replying to: suefisch (Oct 06, 2008 8:20 am) Unbelieveable, it really makes me mad when I see new posts every other day of people having the same problem, and Honda tries to say there is no known issue with the transmission if you had the recall work done. Yet they still cover part of it. They need to be held accountable and cover 100% for everyone since they obviously have a faulty part.   I hate to sound like a broken record, but contact the attorneys. The secretary that I talked to said she gets calls every day. Hopefully the more they get, the quicker the lawsuit will take place and we can all get our money back.

Replying to: suefisch (Oct 06, 2008 8:20 am) I just received a call from the dealer. It turns out the transmission is fine. A squirrel chewed through something called the "TCC Silenoid" (This is possible - I live on 5 very woodsy acres. For the last year the van as been outside (it was previously kept in the garage until a year ago when I replaced it with an Acura MDX) and this time of year squirrels are building nests. Now that it is out of warranty and I can't leave it outside because of the squirrels I will be bringing it to car max. Other than this problem it has been great for 7 years (and why I bought another Honda/Acura.) I "wasted" $1000 on the extended warranty.

Replying to: suefisch (Oct 06, 2008 8:20 am) If Honda is providing the transmission which costs $3,800 and you're paying the labor of $1,200, They're paying for 75% of the transmission replacement which is pretty darn fair in my opinion. Few if any other car companies would do that especially for a vehicle that is very near 100,000 miles. Replies to this message: suefisch (Oct 06, 2008 4:26 pm)

Replying to: bobber1 (Oct 06, 2008 4:04 pm) I agree. I was happy they were willing to pay 75%. I was more upset it happened the day after the extended warranty expired. In the end it turned out not to be the transmission (see post #843). I had all scheduled maintenance done at the same dealer for 7 years. They offered me "the only pay labor deal" right from the start. They initatied calls to Honda without me even requesting it. I know a lot of people on this board have had a lot problems with their Odysseys, but mine was perfect for 7 years and 87,000 miles.
#846 of 1290 Re: 2008 Honda Odyssey.. beware [ljolley] by meetme25 Oct 08, 2008 (4:16 pm)
Replying to: ljolley (Aug 12, 2008 3:50 pm) I opened a case with BBB and sent all my repair documents to them and they had contacted Honda and Honda decided to settle. They offered either to replace the vehicle or buy back. After all I had gone through I opted for buy back.   Here's what I would suggest, open a case with BBB. You can do this online. Once they accept the case they will send you documenation that needs to be filled out. After you send it back to them it takes approximately 20 days for them to contact Honda and get back to you with the next steps.   Good luck.
#847 of 1290 Re: Are there any non-problem trannys out there [bigdadi118] by seminara Oct 09, 2008 (1:11 pm)
Replying to: bigdadi118 (Oct 02, 2008 8:33 pm) Thanks for the advice. Note: mine is a 2003 not 2002 (oops). Autozone ran the codes for free. It came up with one code #1491 the ERG valve. The TCS light came on on the way to Honda.They said it was part of the ERG valve failure.These are extended warranty for 10 years or 84K mi. The dealer replaced this for free and cleaned the ports. They also changed the transmission fluid and said all was well. Is there any advantage to synthetic transmission oil in warding off any catastrophic failure?
#848 of 1290 Goodwill Repair by bigdadi118 Oct 14, 2008 (6:19 am)
If you think the transmission should be fixed by Honda Goodwill Repair, please make sure you contact the right parties...   Out of warranty: Any repair performed after warranty expiration may be eligible for goodwill consideration by the District Parts and Service Manager or your Zone Office. You must request consideration, and get a decision, before starting work. Replies to this message: rik1 (Nov 05, 2008 10:47 am) rik1 (Nov 05, 2008 1:40 pm)
#849 of 1290 Re: My Transmission Problems - 100% covered to nothing covered. [darentx] by eaguirre0 Oct 31, 2008 (5:43 pm)
Replying to: darentx (Dec 19, 2007 3:55 pm) Hi,   Could you tell what exactly what you said to the Honda customer service hotline so that I can tell them the same thing. Please. My trans is also not working. It stopped working at about 104000 miles. Well it will still catch gear when its cold but once it warms up it loses its gears. So, will you please help me out?   Enrique Replies to this message: taggerty (Nov 03, 2008 2:49 pm)
#850 of 1290 '01 Odyssey Transmission by jean185 Nov 02, 2008 (12:11 pm)
I have a 2001 Odyssey with 53,000 miles. This week the local dealer replaced the transmission under warranty. When I got home and checked it out, I discovered it was a used transmssion and the gear shift lever is totally different and filthy. Is this supposed to be acceptable? Or, because I'm a woman, did I get taken? Replies to this message: kominsky (Nov 03, 2008 12:01 pm)
