The Honda Odyssey has a well known manufacturing defect with it transmission, including a class action lawsuit that was withdrawn by the plaintiff for an unknown reason- (likely settled by Honda outside of the Class is my guess), related to the Torque Converter that American Honda Motor Co is unwilling to acknowledge and repair. https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=odyssey+torque+converter+judder
On May 9, 2016 Scott Clark Honda at 13000 E Independence Blvd, Matthews, NC 28105,Phone:(855) 507-6727, diagnosed this problem on my 2008 Odyssey and quoted $1727 to replace the torque converter. I contacted Honda Customer relations at 310-783-2000 and was told that they would not cover the repair of the Torque Converter as there is no recall and they vehicle being out of the warranty period.
Given the consistent problem being reported by others I feel this is a manufacturing defect as opposed to normal “wear and tearâ€. I am hoping the State of North Carolina would consider investigating this matter including consulting its files for similar complaints by North Carolinians and bring action against Honda or influence them to add this problem to their recall list for the Honda Odyssey.
