Purchased vehicle from dealership. According to paperwork, vehicle has clean title. When i try to insure vehicle apparently vehicle is deemed "unsafe" because it suffered significant damage and needs a rebuilt title. Dealership never made me aware the vehicle had 3 accidents. After agreeing to buy back vehicle from me, they said they would no longer accept it.

At 95k miles, automatic transmission overheated due to insufficient cooling, faulty torque converter. The vehicle was never used for towing. This seems to be a chronic theme (bad transmissions) with honda odysseys.

I have been experiencing hesitation in acceleration from a stop through third gear at low speeds. I took the vehicle to honda dealership and they had not heard of the problem and were unable to duplicate the severity of my issue but did notice hesitation. Manager said he would speak to corporate representative. Yesterday, while taking a left to cross highway, the vehicle had trouble accelerating to cross highway…

I get a major dead spot on attempted acceleration moving from a slowdown (as toward a signal) toward acceleration (as the signal changes) at about 5 -10 mph. This is consistent. I can step hard on the gas or pump the accelerator and get no response for at least 2 seconds. It seems like if you hit the brake, you cannot use the accelerator unless it is fully reset. I am thinking it is a software problem. The injury…

As soon as the transmission shifts to the second gear, the entire car will shudder. Same thing happens often on the third, fourth, and fifth. Another thing that happens on the transmission is that when it's in overdrive in the sixth gear, the rpm will jump about a hundred or two, up and down, randomely. When it's also in overdrive, it makes a weird noise. In the cabin, it sounds like an extreme wind noise, but you…

Tl*the contact owns a 2011 honda odyssey. The contact stated the transmission shifted hard while slowing down under 30 mph. The contact could feel and hear the transmission down shifting, and the failure became progressively worse. The dealer test drove the vehicle and confirmed that the transmission was defective and that the computer caused the transmission to fail. The manufacturers engineer inspected the vehicle…

The van has, on numerous occasions (approx 1 per 1000 miles) failed to accelerate on command, in fact, it actually seems to stall out for 1 to 5 seconds. The longer it stalls out, the more explosive the acceleration, once it comes. This condition seems to crop up most often just after slacking off on the gas. For example: in traffic, if i and have taken my foot off the gas to maintain space from the car in front of…
