Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2003 honda odyssey participated in the transmission recall back a few years ago. has 55 thousand miles. took it into dealership for 48k mile service, found it already was performed the last time it was in, so we got it the 60k mile service early. vehicle was returned to us with a transmission that shifted violently into lower gears when slowing down, and sharply when speeding up. we immediately returned it to the dealership where they determined that it needed a new transmission at 55k miles. we never drove the vehicle in any way that would cause the transmission. to be ruined. when we dropped it off for service, it was running fine, when we picked it up, transmission was ruined. honda replaced the transmission at no charge as a "goodwill" act, but charged us for a broken engine mount that also should not have happened at this mileage / age of car. *jb
