Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION FAILURE - 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY @65,000 MILES - LOST 4TH GEAR FIRST, THEN 2ND GEAR WHEN I SLOWED DOWN. BY THE TIME I GOT TO THE DEALER, ALL OF THE GEARS WERE MALFUNCTIONING AND CAR WAS UNDRIVEABLE. PENDING A RESPONSE FROM HONDA AS TO WHETHER THEY WILL GRANT ME A "GOODWILL REPAIR" ALLOWANCE, I HAVE NOT TAKEN ANY REPAIR ACTION. THIS TRANSMISSION WAS THE SUBJECT OF A RECALL IN 2004, WHICH I RESPONDED TO. HONDA SETTLED A LAWSUIT REGARDING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS IN THEIR 1999-2002 TRANSMISSIONS. IT'S TIME FOR AN INVESTIGATION ON THE 2003-2004 TRANSMISSIONS, PARTICULARLY THOSE WHICH WERE SUBJECT TO THE ORIGINAL RECALL. *TR
