I purchased a 2000 Honda Odyssey in September, 1999. At approximately 42,000 miles the transmission went out and it was replaced under warranty. No rental car was available from the dealership. Approximately 49,000 miles later the first replacement went out and it had to be replaced again...this time under warranty with a warning that I was getting a big break. Again, for 4 days I had to go without a vehicle. Now it's 45,000 miles later and the second replacement is also done...this time the car was dangerous to drive as the gears slipped and there was no power to accelerate. This time I have been denied any assistance or compensation by Honda and the bill for the "new" transmission is $4,700. This is due to being outside of the extended warranty of 109,000 miles. I left the car at the dealership in order to think about my options. Three (3) transmissions in 136,000 miles. Are you kidding me" my question is...and I don't think it's an unfair one...what kind of sub-par transmissions were they throwing into my vehicle? this is not a normal life span of a transmission; 40,000 miles. If I were to have it replaced again, I would be driving on my fourth transmission in 10 years. Please; someone explain to me how this is permissible. Like most everything these days, where is the accountability"

I have a 2000 Honda Odyssey LX. The cup holder in the rear seat does not hold the cup properly and often falls off. This has caused beverage spill on the persons in the car at that time. At least two of the spills were from hot beverage. I have reported this to the manufacturer but they say that it is not a recall. Interestingly they have changed the cup holders in their newer models.
