  Odyssee - 2012 Honda Odyssey
  By Larry B - December 13 - 6:31 am

  Very reliable with excellent gas mileage for such a large vehicle. Very few maintenace issues encountered over 4 years. Have owned two and will probably consider getting another one. Recommend with anyone with a family. Lots of features.

  Riddled with problems, do your research! - 2012 Honda Odyssey
  By Cathy - December 6 - 9:47 am

  In the last year I have been in the shop 7 times for failed mechanics. The spark plugs have been replaced 3 times due to failure (this is a known Odyssey issue), leaving me stranded. Both sliding doors have failed mechanically. The brakes stopped engaging a few months ago. An engine mount broke. And the transmission has had problem after problem, transmission was flushed, had a software update, replaced the torque converter and still there is a loud vibration from the engine.....the dealership will not acknowledge an issue but there is a class action lawsuit out there (google "Honda transmission vibration problems"). I will never buy a Honda ever again after owning this vehicle.

  2012 Odyssey Touring - 2012 Honda Odyssey
  By Stan F. - September 20 - 10:52 pm

  Have owned five Odyssey minivans since they were redesigned in the late 90s. This unit has been by far the most reliable, trouble free one. Highly recommended. Always had issues with the "lightning rod" design, introduced in 2011, which I thought was downright ugly. So sad to see that Honda did not get rid of that design element in the new 2018 model... an opportunity to reinvent itself.

  Battery drain issue - 2012 Honda Odyssey
  By Ody-driver - May 25 - 10:40 am

  We really like our 12 Odyssey, and if it werent for the annoying battery drain problem weve had since we bought the van new, we would have rated it a lot higher. The dealership admitted to me there was a design problem, and I should lock my van when parked in garage, or to make sure the dome lights were switched to Off instead of on Door as this somehow deactivates a circuit that remains energized. It still doesnt seem to help as the battery has been weakened enough after being killed a dozen times, so now if I know I wont be driving it for several weeks, I hook up my battery charger.
