    Driving on a residential street at approximately 25 mph, the engine suddenly stalled with no warning. After bringing the car to a stop, i was able to restart it. The idle speed is normal (~900 rpm). The engine and rest of drivetrain have been fairly trouble free. The only possibly related thing is that the car sometimes hesitates under normal acceleration around 30mph. I am taking the car to the shop tonight. *tr

    I bought a 2002 honda odyssey from small dealer. Come to find out that the engine oil is leaking. It had 52000 miles on it. Dealer says it is out of warranty due to mileage. I believe that honda should fix that problem for me as it is not due to wear and tear of the vehicle. I believe the seal is defective and should be replaced free of charge. The dealer is asking $600.00 to fix the problem. The vehicle also lunges…

I accelerated to merge with traffic and the check engine light and tcs light came on. I immediately returned to the dealer to have the car checked out.
