#1 of 4 2003 Honda Odyssey Powertrain Warranty by jmoss1

I read this on consumer guides. Can anyone verify if this is true or requires purchase?
 
Automatic transmission problems prompted Honda to extend powertrain warranty coverage to 7 years/100,000 miles.

#3 of 4 Honda Used Certified Warranty Question by sonicw

Sep 11, 2009 (10:33 am)

I just bought an Odyssey that was 14 months used by prior (original) owner. I took out the 7 year/100,000 mile "Honda Certified Odyssey" warranty.
 
What surprised me was the effective date. I find it stated, "This warranty begins on the date the vehicle is delivered to the first purchaser by a Honda dealer."
 
So, I am effectively buying only a 5.8 year/100,000 mile warranty? Does this seem fair? I am being asked to re-purchase a warranty that had already been owned by the first (original) owner?
 
What am I missing? Is this standard operating practice for auto manufacturers?
 
Has anyone else questioned the logic in buying use vehicle warranty from Honda?

Well, effectively you are getting less than that. If the Ody comes with a 3 yr/36k mile manufacturers warranty, you are effectively only getting 4.0 more years.
