    Brought the car to a honda dealership (tony honda, waipahu hi 96797) for recall (fuel pump) and routine maintenance and two broken motor mounts were discovered (right side and rear side). Was advised that repair of the two broken mounts would most likely lead to damage to the remaining mounts, which would then have to be replaced as well. *tr

    Had to replace a front motor mount in my 2005 honda odyssey. My mechanic indicated that he contacted a honda dealer and they were out of the part because there were several odyssey's with the same problem. I didn't know how many complaints needed to be launched before a recall notice would be considered. I wanted my vehicle noted since i did not go to a honda dealer. *tr
