2012 130kmi and 2018 112kmi. No problems with engine and transmission. If you have glass coverage with insurance it covers the replacement and calibration.
I have a 2023 Odyssey EX-L that I bought in January of this year. It replaced my 2018 that I bought in 2018, it was an EX, last September a young kid ran a stop light and totalled it and it had over 28,000 miles on it. I had no problems whatsoever with it those 4 years. Just sayin.
If you're looking for reliability, moving to an Expedition is going to definitely be a step backwards. The reality is with all of the features on modern vehicles it only introduces more points of failures. It seems like you've had pretty minimal issues.
I have 2007 Odyssey and i love it.what I just noticed is pretty heavy and at the winter is not that good.seems like take more time to stop.slips a lot.
I just got rid of a 2020 Expedition with 60k miles that the transmission needed to be rebuilt. We purchased this Honda and so far love it. Any car is a perfect reliable car as long as you only keep it two years, which is all we need.
Our 2018 expedition max started having issues at 39k miles. The trans eventually was replaced at 90k miles. Took it to every dealer in town to try and fix our trans issues. It wasn’t till it finally gave out completely that they replaced it. But those 50k miles were full dealer trips and a bunch of hard shifts and regrets. Hate not buying my wife the odyssey instead. Fuel economy wasn’t the best either.
Thank you for your insight. I am in the same boat I am trying to convince my wife that we need a minivan we have 3 under 2 and a four-year-old. But I agree that toddlers are best in minivans and once they are older SUV will suffice. Good luck!
For that age group a van will be a home run! They are great to travel with and gas mileage is better than a suv. Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching!
I've had both the 2012 odyessy and currently have a 2012 navigator L. Hands down the mini van has the most room for people, your things and is the easiest to get in and out of. I moved from the odysey because of how it handled in winter here in Canada. Because of my budget at the time i got the Lincoln for a decent price. If i had the money i would have gone for the sienna just because of the AWD. If your winters are bad, this is something to think about. Mini vans are such a large vehicles and to have front wheel drive pulling a large vehicle in the winter, you will have alot of tiring spinning. I've asked alot of other odyssey owners and they say the exact same thing.
Quick tip you do not have to take the vehicle to the dealership to do the recalibration of safety features that’s a dealership tactic to make you go to them call safelite Autoglass and they can do the recalibrations and windshield replacement in the same appointment I work there and get these scheduled all the time for recalibration and windshield replacements 😊
Also if anyone lives in florida state law says as long as you have comprehensive coverage windshield only damage is 100% covered if it’s anything other than windshield damage then you are responsible for up to your deduct
as a Honda guy I can't drive any other car brand apart from my 911 but for daily driving I can't go for Toyota or korean brands. The odessey is more than enough for my kids and family and most problems are not than big of deal to me, engine is good enough, transmission for a minivan is great and overall usability is good, and not very common here in NY.
Have a 2018 with just over 75k on it. To be honest, I beat the livin daylights out of it because it is so much fun to drive. I change the oil every 3k and keep good tires on it. Knock on wood, no major issues yet.
This is every parents dilemma I want to buy an suv , minivans are ugly , i dont want Then reality comes in : you have to buy chevy suburban size of suv to match the interior space of minivan, and pay 20k more , plus you pay more drive more , sell for less after 5 years Logically nothing can beat minivans , period
@@CRAPO2011 think it was around $3000 used. They couldn't rebuild it. Also transmission locked so had to manually under the hood with a sz7 wrench put on neutral for tow truck
@@whateverfoo internals seized damn must have been super overheated. Does the used one shift nice and smooth? Was looking at the OEM trans fluid in the 2018+ odys it's damn expensive compared to dw1 (older Honda fluid)
@@CRAPO2011 was driving good. Went shopping, came out and minivan didnt wanna move into drive. But no it didnt over heat. On the fluids i let my mechanic put whatever he recommended.
just do drain and fills on transmission every oil change or every other my transmission is right as rain at 160k granted you shouldn't have to do that.
The van is going to have more room and be a little bit more kid-friendly while the Highlander will be higher off the ground and feel more like a truck. It will be less kid-friendly but honestly, both are great options. My wife said she would never drive a minivan again.
My 2017 Honda Odyssey it finely died 3rd time we had to replace the ignition coil and me and my mom almost got stranded on Lawrenceville Highway US I-29 we were in the turn lane check engine light starts flashing we get home and my mom is like I got to use your car to go to store I was like ok so she goes to the store and I go to the odyssey and I started it was bad Almost a full Christmas tree full of lights CHECK EMISSION SYSTEM CHECK VSA SYSTEM CHECK LDW SYSTEM CHECK FCW SYSTEM CHECK PARKING SENSOR SYSTEM so more lights came on and we traded it in for a 2023 Honda Pilot EX-L we thought about getting another Odyssey but my sister would be in college and there would be no need for it so we just got a Pilot

I think this depends on region. Where I live, and at the time it had to be done at the dealership but that is good to know!
Out of curiousity what is the cost to replace through Safelite?

@@James-rg2wd awesome… I have to be honest too… I enjoyed driving it too. For some reason my wife hated it. 😂
Good job on the oil changes ! Don't forget to change the trans fluid every 30k.

Thanx for helping us make decision!!
Happy to help! Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching
Very good points. Thank you for this video
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!
I have a 2019 10spd transmission already replaced at 96k miles. Warranty only covers till 60k
It's a same we can't get 150k on these modern transmissions!
How much did the rebuild, replacement run???ouch 10 speed doesnt dound cheap

How often did you have to replace brakes? I don’t think they are big enough for the van
We didn't have any brake issues. We never had to replace the brakes while we owned this van.
just do drain and fills on transmission every oil change or every other my transmission is right as rain at 160k granted you shouldn't have to do that.
Outstanding... Maybe we had a lemon. Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching!
What is a drain and fill on transmission? Are you putting brand new transmission fluid in every oil change?
I've had the transmission fluid change and I have 54 thousands miles
Glad yours is going strong… the one we got must have been a lemon. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
Every 30k is good
Did you run into any transmission problems with the 9speed?
No transmission issues with ours…
I have 2019 LX with transmission problems, when shift to fifth gear at 25-30mpg, and it hear "CRANK" sounds with is not running smoothly.
@@billyyong4711 how many miles do you have? Our expedition’s transmission is falling apart 10-speed 72k miles. Video coming soon on it.
What trim level is this?
does it comes with a spare tire?
Yes I believe it had a spare tire.
How would you compare to Toyota Highlander which is also a 3rd row suv but engine wise
The van is going to have more room and be a little bit more kid-friendly while the Highlander will be higher off the ground and feel more like a truck. It will be less kid-friendly but honestly, both are great options. My wife said she would never drive a minivan again.
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424have you heard of any issues with the 2020 Toyota Highlander’s
Oh is there a usb port or something that I can use to charge iPhone in the 3rd row
I don't remember if this model had a charger back there or not.
My 2019 has 10 speed, I guess I have a good one 😆
You must have the touring model. That was the only model at the time you could get the 10speed for whatever reason.
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 And Elite.
Feels like you’re driving a truck in the Sienna.
The Sienna is not bad….
Doesn't go from 6 to 4 cylinders when you hit the button?
It’s automatic the computer does it when it’s not under load.
Happy new year pal
Hey man! I thought you got tired of seeing my videos hahah. Good to hear from you! Happy New Years! Cheers!
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 of course not but I got busy with work and I just new baby lol.

How is it doing? In some ways I sorta miss the van although my wife would love to never own a van again! Haha
Thanks for watching!
Wow! There are so many complaints on these.
It was great when the kids were small but I’m glad it’s gone.
my second mother has a 2019 Honda Oddysey

Hopefully, you all will have better luck with the pilot! Thanks for watching!

2020 got the 10 speed unfortunately
How's it doing? Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching.
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 I meant to type fortunately 🤣 That was a iphone auto correct.
@@elic5355 I gotcha... How is it doing for you all? Any problems?
should've gotten an Elite
What more would it have offered? I just remember the elite coming with a vacuum cleaner that was about it.
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 10spd transmission. I hav no issues with mine. 58K miles and never had an issue.
I thought the newer Odyssey all trims have 10 speed transmissions.
