NHTSA Complaint #10558564 — 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY

THIS WAS ABOUT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. I WENT TO HONDA DEALER, AND THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING BECAUSE IT'S OVER 100,000 MILES. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD CONTACT HONDA CORPORATION, THEY MIGHT GIVE ME A DISCOUNT. THEY GAVE ME $1000 DISCOUNT, FROM $4700 TO $3700. AAMCO KNEW ABOUT THE ODYSSEY PROBLEM WAS WILLING TO FIX IT FOR $2592, AND I WENT FOR IT BECAUSE MY WIFE NEEDED THE CAR. I CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATION, ASKED TO SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE, FOR $1296. CASE# N012013-08060-1869 CASE MANAGER: CAROLINE (8000-999-1009 EXT. 117739) I EVEN SUBMITTED TO THE CASE MANAGER THE GRAPH OF THE ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION-RELATED COMPLAINTS TO NHTSA PER 100K SOLD. SHE TOLD ME THAT HONDA DOES NOT TRUST OUTSIDE REPORT. I TOLD HER THAT THIS IS NHTSA REPORT. THERE IS NOTHING THAT SHE COULD DO. I CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATION THREE MORE TIMES. THEY ONLY OFFERED ME $375 IN THE FORM OF DEALER CREDIT. I REJECTED. ABOUT A YEAR LATER, THE TRANSMISSION WENT BAD AGAIN, I SPENT TOTAL ABOUT $4000 TO REBUILD THE TRANSMISSION AGAIN. THEY LET YOU KNOW THAT HONDA IS SO BIG THAT A CUSTOMER LIKE ME, WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FIGHT THEM. I WILL NOT BUY A HONDA CAR ANYMORE. *TR
