Description of the problem | Hi, my honda odyssey ex has just 65000 miles on it and always maintained very well. But suddenly engine blinking check sign and steady traction control sign turn on. Took to dealer right away as i was just quarter mile away of it. Dealer says it is code p0302 issue and they need to rebuild engine and replace piston rings, spark plugs , etc. Estimated cost is $5000/-. I just don't understand how come well maintained brand name car has engine problem in just 65k miles?!! I never have any problem with toyota cars. I also find from google that some 2013 model do had recall with similar type engine issue but dealer says my car is not part of that recall. This is a very bad experience. Dealer says as warranty expired just 6 months ago, honda will cover 85% repair cost. I can say this is still costly repair for me. Now how can i trust honda and this care for reliability as i need to make long distance family trips??? |
