  Great Car - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By jv.wojciechowski - June 26 - 11:54 pm

  Well I purchased my 2000 Honda Odyssey brand new. I personally have never had problems with my car! No transmission problems, my cd and navigation work fine, and no repairs on the sliding doors! My wife drove this car around and never a problem, so I totally recommend this car! If you were to take a look at my Honda it still looks brand new! I liked the Honda Odyssey so much that I actually recently purchased the 08 Odyssey touring, more expensive than the 2000 but same quality. And quality doesnt come cheap!

  Lucky I guess - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By Robert Smith - June 11 - 11:14 am

  I bought my Odyssey new, performed scheduled maintenance and havent had any major problems. Did have EGR valve replaced under warranty. The transmission has a small leak that is annoying but has never failed. As a side note, I never used Honda Transmission Fluid, and I changed my transmission fluid every 40K miles or so - usually after towing a small utility trailer or u-haul. I now have 156k miles and given the history of cars Ive owned before, if it broke down tomorrow I wouldnt be upset. What will bother me more about buying another Odyssey is that inflated price for a comparably equipped model but considering I had to pay sticker for this one, I guess its to be expected.

  Honda Odyssey - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By carnut0118 - May 28 - 10:00 am

  My wife has driven the EX w/Navi since new. The navigation system is extremely useful and user friendly. Weve had only two irritants. 1. The rear AC knob has broken off twice. Poor design in my opinion. 2. A piece of the roof rack fell off. The dealer did fix both items under warranty. We are no longer under warranty.

  A Honda Lemon? - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By Joei - May 22 - 10:00 am

  I switched to the Honda so that I could feel safe that my wife and children were in a dependable car. Three transmisions (within the first 30,000 miles), cooling system fix, four door handles, and a variety of other annoyances later, and I would not recommend this to ANYONE! The van looks good and drives nice, but not worth the worry. My wife has no sense of security.

  ENGINE CHECK LIGHT - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By RICVEGAS - May 10 - 2:00 am

  I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR ABOUT THE ENGINE LIGHT ALWAYS COMES ON. I BROUGHT IT TO THE SERVICE TO FIX IT. THE CORRECTION THAT THEY MADE WAS TO REPLACE A PIPE INSIDE THE GAS TANK OR WHATEVER. AFTER TWO MONTHS THE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN, THEN BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE SERVICE TO FIX THE SAME PROBLEM. NOW EVERY ONE OR TWO MONTHS THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS COMING ON. IM TIRED ALREADY BRINGING THIS CAR TO THE SERVICE.

  Great Now, Greatest w/Improvements - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By DDH - May 10 - 2:00 am

  First 4 months were the pits doors continueously had problems. The contineous returns to the dealer eventually fixed the door problem. Then a low grinding noise when backing up, the transmission was replaced Dealer had vehicle more than we did. Even with being put out over the period of problems, I love my Odyssey. It is roomy, it is great for the kids, my elderly Mother who is handicapped finds little difficulty getting in and out of the Odyssey. Lastly the knobs for the driver side are in a bad place, I have had to have the knobs replaced due to the children stepping on the knobs.

  Transmissions!!!! - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By Dick - March 3 - 8:54 am

  I was first caught in the Canada vs. US fight, but finally resolved through Tokyo to correct first transmission failure at 78K mile. Second transmission has now failed after 70K miles and every dealer and transmission shop is familiar with the problem. Honda US will not help because of the gray market status! What a joke. All 2000 Odysseys were built in Canada and I do not believe built in Canada with US use is why the transmissions fail. US Customer Service is useless. Im going to try Tokyo again.

  My Honda is Awesome - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By TW in New Hampshire - February 16 - 1:27 pm

  I pulled her off the showroom floor in November 1999 and have for the most part put every mile on her. She is phenomenal. No Major repairs. Tires, oil changes, spark plugs, the regular maintenance. I would recommend a Honda to anyone who works hard for their dollar.

  Not the Best Honda ever Made - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By TerryW - February 10 - 12:20 pm

  Bought used w/ 44K mi. EGR problems @ 70k (fixed free by dealer). This van eats batteries and front brakes. On my 4th battery, and 3rd set of brakes in past 65K miles. Also for past yr. have a recurring fuel vapor leak (EVAP system) fault. Tried new gas cap, but that did not fix. Does a good job pulling our pop-up camper (2500#) though. No engine or transm. issues.

  Hoping for 10 good years - 2000 Honda Odyssey
  By Bob H - December 29 - 1:35 pm

  Bought the van used with 20km. Certified so when the door motor died it was free. I now have 65km and no significant issues. Replaced timing belt and brakes and have intermittent issues with doors buzzing and check engine light coming on. Most are liveable issues with a 8-yr old car. It is tough to get transmission into D3 other than when I am parked, but I havent really needed to do that all that often. Great car for long family vacations. I will probably keep the car for a few more years and get another Honda.
