Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 honda odyssey ex that i bought in aug. 2003 from auto way honda, clearwater, florida. the vehicle had a recall early this year to install a transmission jet kit. october 2004, started the car up but the gear lights would not light up, the shifter would move up and down but no gear would engage. someone suggested at work that rocking the car would work and it did. i thought nothing of it untill 2 weeks later the same thing happened. this time i drove the vehicle to tampa honda land, tampa florida. after a whole day at the dealorship, i was told that eveything was fine and that they could not duplicate the problem. i had no recourse but to take the vehicle back. i am afraid that the transmission might lock up or fail while the vahicle is moving, with my wife and kids in it. there are no service bulletins or any info. available from honda on this issue according to the dealorship. if this problem persists i am afraid i will have to lemon this vehicle.*ak
