There's nothing much you can do at this point except bone up on the lemon law literature that came with the van. Although it varies by state, three unsuccessful attempts usually equals a lemon.
 
They are now on number two and, it seems, trying hard to get it right. It sounds as though they are doing what they can to avoid replacing the transmission.
 
This is why new cars have warranties. Unlike certain other manufacturers, Honda (at least in my experience) does stand behind its products.

Have they provided you a "loaner" vehicle while they are trying to repair yours?
 
Keep all the work orders to prove it had problems shortly after delivery in case it can not be satisfactorily repaired.

Sudden loss of power by nolan12

I have a 2000 Odyssey. When I accelerate up a hill and I get to about 3100 rpm my engine shudders and I lose power. If I let off the gas I regain power but my check engine light and my TCS light is on. I've replaced the cadilitic converter and the oxygen sensor. This only happens on hills when I'm pushing the engine. It never happens at lower speeds on a flat service. Has anyone else had this problem?

Could be your transmission failing or a bad EGR valve.
 
Both problems have similar characteristics & are common problems with the '99-'01 Odysseys.
 
Have somemone check the error code with a diagnostic computer.
 
If you have a bad trans...make sure you are well informed about the class action lawsuit + surf Edmunds for advice. Don't pay for a replacement.

Thanks for responding. I had the transmission replaced under warranty after the first time I had this problem. I thought that would fix it. The error code is saying that I'm losing oil pressure.

The Honda Dealer did provide a very nice "loaner" vehicle to us while they were fixing the problem. It took them 18 days total and finally determined that it was the Power Train Module that was defective. We got the car back on Tuesday of this week and have driven it twice without incident. Additionally, the Honda dealer has compensated us for the 'inconvenience' by giving us the 6 yr/100,000 mile extended warranty at no cost to us and by paying the first months payment on our behalf. They kept us informed every step of the way about what was going on and what they were doing to attempt to fix the issue. The intial problem aside, I am very impressed with their service and how accomodating they have been to see that we walk away as satisfied customers. I would definitely go back to Honda again (at least at this point) based on their willingness to correct the initial problem and customer service. I'm truly amazed.

Warning Lights by hondalova

My wife advises me that two different warning lights have come on in the last two days on her '07 Odyssey EX.
 
The first was the low tire pressure warning light, which has come on 2-3 times when the car was cold and first beginning to be driven after being left outside for 3-4 hours (I should add that the temperature here has been in the single digits and low teens for the past week). I attributed that to marginally low pressure to begin with that further dropped when the car sat out in the cold (if she'd stop driving it for 30 min. or so, I'd add air to the tires). The light went off not long after she started driving (presumably b/c the tires heated).
 
The second light she described said "Side Airbag Off" and came on shortly after she went through the car wash with the car and began driving again. It stayed lit for a few minutes and then went out too. She was alone in the front of the vehicle with nobody else in the car and I believe had no things on the seat.
 
Car is going in for its first service early next week - I already have a laundry list (2000 rpm drone, loose glovebox, transmission shift delay) and would like to know if there anything else I should know or is this just likely extreme cold-weather related jitters?
 
Thanks!

My wife's 06 Touring did the same with tire pressure warning. Due to the low temps, you need to put at least 30 lbs of pressure when cold. I put in 32 to be safe and problem solved. Some folks also pay extra to have their tires filled with Nitrogen which does not change as dramatically as normal air with temperature.
 
My Passenger airbag light does not stay lit either and will be checked at the next oil change.

passenger airbag light by speterson1

With the passenger airbag light, check your owner's manual. IIRC your Odyssey is working as designed because I believe the passenger side airbag does not activate when less than 60 lbs are in the front seat. I think that's a safety feature.
