[quote=Anonymous]Two days ago, our 2015 Odyssey (which we bought new and has been well maintained and has fewer than 40,000 miles on it) suddenly started shaking while driving. We had it towed to the dealership and after their diagnostics, there are many problems with the engine (I am not a car person, but there is a cylinder misfiring, a “fouled out” spark plug, a piston ring that needs replacing, other issues with cylinders 2 and 3, and they say they can’t confirm whether there will be additional issues once they break into the engine. All of this, plus some separate electrical issues, will cost about $7k to fix. I am speechless. We bought a Honda because the engines are supposed to last forever. We are, of course, just outside of our power train warranty. This vehicle has been a headache nearly since the beginning. We just spent a few thousand replacing the rear breaks, replacing the battery, and other maintenance items. One of the sliding doors won’t open from the inside. This is the second time I’ve had to have it towed in the last month. I am beyond frustrated since these cars are supposed to be so reliable. At this point the blue book value is probably only $15-$17k and I feel like we’re sinking our money.

What would you do here? Is it worth it to have it towed to another place for a second opinion? Assuming we would have to pay for diagnostics again in that case though. Never again with Honda for us. [/quote]
