Used 2010 Honda Odyssey Consumer Reviews
313,000 miles
Bought with 150,000 miles on it nearly 8 years ago. Only recently had issues to where I am concerned to drive long distances after heading 10 hours one direction to visit family. Mechanic said it has done well but not sure issue can affordably be fixed. Still driving it 35 miles a day. Thankful!
Honda's reputation exceeds reality
Purchased car 2 years ago with 126k, with the though that this was a Honda....no more repairs like my other cars I had. Wrong! First month I had it power steering hose went bad. Next, I heard a knocking noise in it. Took it in....timing belt. Oh....reality check -- Honda still uses belts - not chains. Luckily, I caught it before it broke and could do further damage. Automatic slides doors -- oh yah...does not last -- luckily they built in an "off" switch so we can turn it off and push it by hand. I bought new tires for it...oh my does this car eat up front tires. I bought 65k mile tires, and they are already bad at only 30k -- after further research-- it's the car, not the tire. This summer, the A/C unit went out....I let it go through the end of the summer because it's going to cost $1k+ to fix. Ughh....more $$$ I haven't even paid for it yet. I've had plymouth, fords, general motors, and toyota. The cost of ownership on this one has been super high - and I'm extremely disappointed in that. Ride-wise...has been very nice. This one has the 8th seat in it, and I do love that. Very nice. The leather seats and roominess of the inside is great. I love the way the seats fold down in back -- great features. But this has not been the "reliable" brand I expected, especially it being my first Honda.

Overall nice car
Bought our first minivan 3 months ago with 3000 mi driven. Getting 18-22mpg so far on freeway/city driving. So far no major problems except a few body panels being loose at the edges. Taking it to dealer to get it fixed. Hard to modulate brakes smoothly. Noticed you have to press pretty far down in order to stop if you are going at a decent speed (30-40 mph), but I think it's just a matter of getting used to the weight of the vehicle. Overall, nice size vehicle if you want to haul people and things.
Nice family minivan!
Traded our 2007 EX-L RES with 2010 Touring ,and we loved it!.I heard a lot of reviews about transmission problems on odyssey van but so far I didn't have problem with our 07.There are complains about MPG ratings too!you know what,maybe you forgot that this is a 6 cylinder,not 4,so don't expect that it's as fuel efficient as civic.We drove our 07 to New York 2 yrs. ago and I filled the tank twice only all the way.We started from the midwest.Very reliable van!!
Don't buy if you live where it snows
I have had this van for a year, and have missed my SUV ever since I bought it. The dealership was great, the service is fabulous, and Honda's reputation is the best, which is why I bought the van in the first place. However, I will not buy another Honda or a van. I was just stuck on a tiny hill in the snow for :15 minutes until some good person towed me up the hill. EVERYONE was going around me, including cars and other makes of vans. This van is not comfortable to me to drive, and it does not allow electronic devices to be charged when the vehicle is off.
