ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:CATALYTIC CONVERTOR
ON 12/17/03, I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE HONDA DEALER BECAUSE MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN 2 MONTHS THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON. I TOLD THEM THAT I AM STILL FEELING SOME HARD SLIPPAGE ON DOWNSHIFTS. WITH APPROXIMATELY 82,500 MILES ON MY CAR, THE TECHNICIANS BELIEVED IT WAS THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE ESTIMATE WAS $701.90. THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THE PART AND I WOULD HAVE TO PREPAY. I WAS UNEASY ABOUT THIS (AND NOT TO MENTION THE AMOUNT OF MONEY), SO THEY RESET THE INDICATOR AND SAID THAT "IT WOULDN'T DO ANY DAMAGE TO THE CAR IF I DIDN'T FIX IT NOW. ALL THAT WOULD HAPPEN WOULD BE THAT THE LIGHT WOULD CONTINUE TO COME ON. *AK

ENGINE
2012 HONDA ODYSSEY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ACCELERATION PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN SHE SLOWED DOWN OR LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL, THE ENGINE ACTED AS THOUGH IT WAS GOING TO SHUT OFF, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WOULD LURCH FORWARD. IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN LETTING OFF THE GAS TO TURN A CORNER, AND WHEN SHE ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE, IT FELT AS THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS GOING TO STALL.
