2022 Touring 10k mile review

So far, so good in my 2022 Touring. The darker grey color with the black interior looks quite classy. Interior is much quieter than I expected. The engine has more than enough power to lug around our family of five plus cargo. Very comfortable on the few 4+ hour road trips we have taken. We definitely like the amount of USB cords available. Overall, this van seems to be a solid buy. I will update with more mileage. UPDATE: 20,000 trouble free miles now on this van. I’ve come to appreciate the adaptive cruise and lane keeping assist when I go on long road trips. The interior is holding up well as is the exterior. Tires still have plenty of tread, brakes working almost as new. We upgraded the rear suspension with a set of Timbren SES’s. It tightened up the back when we had a heavy load in the vehicle. Highly recommend this van to anyone looking. UPDATE: 30,000 miles now and nary a problem. I appreciate the automatic hi-beams and the interior and exterior are holding up well. Starting to look into a set of upgraded front brakes, a vibration is starting to occur at times under anything harder than normal braking. Tires have been rotated At recommended intervals and have a good amount of tread left. Nothing negative to report at all, the van is serving our family well. UPDATE: 40,000 miles, zero issues. Will be putting new tires on this van within the next month, the original tires are about to tap out as are the front brakes. I’ll replace them with some Centric rotors and Akebono pads. A few 17+ hour road trips under her belt and still rides tight and comfortable. UPDATE 1/10/24: Dropped 4 new shoes on the van at 43,000. I really like these Michelin Defender 2’s that we purchased at COSTCO. I also installed a set of Centric rotors and Akebono pads at around 46,000 miles. The original pads had plenty of life on them but the current setup is definitely an upgrade. The fan stops much better now. Currently at 49,000 and zero major issues with the van. Minor concern is it seems the FM reception is awful. Other than that I’m very happy with the vehicle. The interior is wearing very well and no exterior issues.

Transmission Died at 2k miles

We were 2 hours into a 5-hour road trip when the transmission on our brand new 2022 Elite Odyssey slipped into neutral going 70 mph on a busy interstate. The fact we made it over to the shoulder safely is a miracle. There were no warning lights that came on to indicate a problem, the car just stopped accelerating out of nowhere. The van was towed to a nearby dealer (hours from our house) and it remains there over two weeks later while waiting for the transmission to come in. Honda America has been completely unhelpful and I am counting down the days for my state's lemon law to kick in. I reported the issue to the NTSB and have seen multiple other reports of the same issue with the 2022 model in other forums. Honda should be taking this seriously before someone is seriously injured or killed...as I mentioned we were lucky. Our case manager has been completely useless. Please take note future buyers and Honda if you care to read reviews such as mine.

We purchased our BRAND NEW 2022 Odyssey in May 2021. 300 miles into driving it the transmission went completely out on the highway without warning and left us stranded in an unsafe situation. They had to completely replace it. Since that incident, we’ve gone on two family road trips and it has left us stranded both times in the way home with our two toddlers and dog. Zero warning. Neither the dealership nor Honda corporate has done anything to make it right. I would NEVER EVER recommend this van or another Honda to anyone. It’s completely unreliable and unsafe.

Never thought I would love a minivan

This is the ultimate family vehicle. Honda has thought of everything with this car. It makes mom life easier with alot of hands free features like the kick open tailgate and the doors that open with the fob. The magic side seats are a back saver if you have little ones in car seats. The ride is smooth and it has a lot of get up and go when you punch the gas. I never thought I would love a minivan but this is seriously the best vehicle I have ever owned.
