It seems like it shifts funny, but hopefully that's just me getting used to a new car (fingers crossed). The comfort and technology is fantastic! It's so easy to get to the third row to buckle my child in with the easy to slide second row seats. There aren't many vents in the third row, so on hoping that will be ok. Otherwise great car!

So Close, Yet So Far

Well, we upgraded (mostly anyway) from a 2018 Kia Sorento EX V6. We needed more space and that's basically the #1 reason we went with a minivan. The #1 reason we went the Odyssey is because of the magic slide seats in the 2nd row. We love being able to adjust them front to back and side to side. Overall we are pleased with our decision. But there are a few things that we miss from the Kia that our Odyssey EX-L doesn't have... 1.) Power folding side mirrors. It was so nice to have on the Kia because we park two cars in the garage and the auto folding mirrors made it easier. With the Honda you have to manually fold them in each time. 2.) Rear camera beeps when approaching an object behind you. (The Honda has rear cross traffic alert, but not when you're going approaching something while going straight back. 3.) The volume button on the steering wheel is not placed well in the Honda. The Kia had a much more natural feel. The Honda's volume control is placed further away from the left side of the steering wheel so it required a further stretch with the left thumb. 4.) The Kia has 10 more horsepower, but the engine is smoother. The Honda has nine gears so it shifts a lot and early, especially from first to second gear. 5.) The Kia steering wheel is a little thicker and feels overall better to my wife and I. Obviously none of those five things listed were deal-breakers for us. Having more space was the top priority, which led us to getting the Odyssey.

A total nightmare

The minivan is super comfortable. For a family of 5 and I am always with my 3 nieces. My nightmare started when the sliding doors stopped working properly sometimes didn't open or closed. I was going crazy cuz I was afraid to take the kids out of the car or put it in. I have a baby and sometimes I was un able to take her out of the carseat. For several times we took her out of the car thru the window. The dealer didn't believe it but when I started recording video they saw what's going on. It was a hard month back and forth from the dealership. They replace sensors, sliding doors motors, handles and others pieces and the problem never stop. They didn't have another choice and they exchange it for a Pilot after I call a lemon law attorney.

Impressive for the 2019 model

I used to drive the previous years model of Honda Odyssey. The transmission used to be a common concern. The newly bought model, however, impressed me a lot. The most impressive thing is the transmission--so smooth for accelerations that is totally different from the previous years, although I don't know the reliability yet.

2019 Honda Odyssey Elite 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 10A)

Love my Honda but batteries on a new 2019 odyssey elite should not have to get batteries jumped at four months. That is after Honda replaced battery at 3 months when I took it for a software recall. If it proves to be more unreliable and can’t count on a reliable starting car. It will be the quickest turnover in vehicles in my 40 years of driving. Also electronic transmission cannot be put in neutral if cannot start car. Hence tow trucks have to drag it out of a garage if nose in and cannot get it started with a jumper battery. There is a manual switch on front of engine, but designer lacked foresight. Three large plastic pieces have to be removed along battery and battery holder before it can be accessed. Had to adjust habits to make sure all electrical items are off before turning car off, especially cannot leave the headlights in auto position. Still plan to get new vehicle next year and will spend more time checking out other manufacturers, especially want a 360 degree camera on next vehicle.
