Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We have a honda odyessey 2002, it was subject to a recall for possible transmission problem, the dealer determined there was no wear to the gears and installed a oil kit. this was done at 52000 miles(mainly highway miles). soon after we noticed some revving of engine when we try to accelarate off and on. on 12/10/04 while driving my wife suddenly could not go beyond 20-30 miles after stopping at a traffic light. we have had it towed to the dealer who now says the transmission needs to be replaced. he is not attributing it to the reason for the initial recall. we have contacted honda customer service who will get back to us in 1-2 days after talking to our dealer if they would cover the cost of rreplacing the transmission. there are 100's of reports which sound identical on the internet. honda has extended warranty on honda odyessey vans for 2000 and 2001 to 100000miles. we were lucky that this did not happen onthe highway, my wife could have got seriously hurt.
