2006 Honda Odyssey Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by jason.dacosta
A member in Ontario, Canada
Brand reputation & image
Perception of quality leads to high resale value
Handling
It handles like a sedan with minimal body roll. Adequate power and fuel economy.
Discounts & incentives
Huge factory rebates and attractive finance offers right now due to new body style
Past personal experience
Only average reliability. Does not represent good value given high initial price vs competition
Reliability & durability
Expensive and frequent repairs. Too many uncommon defects occur at warranty expiry. Honda Plus extended warranty covers everything that never wears out!
Quietness
Very noisy in cabin at highway speed. Front windows creak and rattle horribly. Rear tailgate also shifts and makes noises over bumps. Engine noise is a little loud inside cabin.
Audio & nav systems
They keep breaking! CD player was DOA. Too bad I never tried it until just after the warranty expired.
Past personal experience
Dealing with Honda over warranty issues at/near expiration. Expensive and frequent repairs.
