  • Lots of Problems - 2002 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    Weve had our van for about 1 year. In that time its been in the shop over 20 times. New struts, DVD player, seat belts, etc. Most recently weve learned that the intake manifold cover gasket was install "upside down." As a result, EGR and air intake ports are/were covered so the whole air/fuel mixture was messed up leading to a "multiple" cylinders failure. BTW: This problem also affects Pilots. So, weve now had the gasket changed but havent seen an improvement. So many repair under warranty what can we expect once the warranty has expired?

    Nothing but trouble with the van and Honda. Sliding doors rattle and squeak, dash rattles and squeaks, windshield whistles at freeway speeds, gas sloshing in tank noise, brakes clunk when reversing direction (beware, Honda says it is normal for their vans. Wait for the 2004 Ford Windstar. Its going to blow Honda away.

    2002 EX.Great Pickup and Room! Apart from that, there is nothing good about this minivan. 28000 is too much for the quality of this minivan. Horrible music system. Problems with automatic doors. Vibrations in Steering wheel. Very high road noise. Drivers seat unstable. Poor braking. This MINIVAN IS BEEN OVERATED. NO WHERE NEAR HONDA STANDARDS. Owned a civic for 4 yrs.. no problems. This one, right from the word go is having problems. Cannot believe that Honda and make such a poor quality vehicle. Had to find another dealer to fix the problems as the buying dealer would not fix it.

    I traded in my 2000 Town and Country for this Honda. I thought I was getting a better vehicle, but now I wish I had simply bought another Town and Country instead. The Odyssey is not as comfortable for both the driver and the passengers. Doesnt feel as solid as my old Town and Country and the road noise is bad. The third seats folds into the floor is nice but I think thats where most of the road noise is coming from though. All the reviews I read seem to suggest its a better van, but I now do not agree with most of those reviews.
