![]() ![]() Ride is still comfortable with none of the squeaking, groaning, rattling old age noises of 10 year old vehicles. The Odyssey nears 80,000 miles, we've done the timing belt and other goodies according to recommendations, have new tires on it and this is still the long trip go-to vehicle. This will be the 4th new Honda and we are still so pleased with this make and the models. In 2020 we have a new CR-V in our garage to keep our Odyssey company. I'm still impressed with the Honda resale value and that's made buying the Odyssey a wise investment. Now, in 2017, at a little over 64,000 miles the vehicle still handles well (except for the stupid brakes), rides well, looks good and I can't see why we need to replace it. So, we do like our Odyssey because it's been a great "buy" and a vehicle that lives up to its reputation. With a Honda reliability is mandatory because dealerships are generally located in cities and often cities are few and far between. Vehicle's outside appearance is still very good, interior shows little wear, engine still sounds and feels sound, transmission doesn't whine, gas mileage still ranges around 20 to 24 mpg (on the road), handling hasn't loosened up to any significant degree and resale value is excellent. … The problems I have with this vehicle have to do with braking (although there's never been a loss of braking there's a softer pedal than I like) and when you do longer road trips across the prairies you have to be aware you're not driving a Ford, for example, with a Ford dealer and shop in almost every town. Īt five years and 56,000 miles we find our Odyssey hasn't aged as much as I have, thank goodness. They are all VERY consistent in their complaints. Please read the other reviews before buying or even going near this place. I honestly feel bad for Jonathon the sales guy and I hope he runs and finds another place to work. I would have bought it if they allowed me to have someone look at it for an hour and a half, the sales guy even offered to accompany and Gaby still would not allow it. So that confirmed that I needed to walk away. We then drove the car, it was better than yesterday but didn’t feel right. He tried offering me a bunk warranty knowing full well it doesn’t cover preexisting conditions. I asked Gaby to give me just a few hour “refund guarantee” and he wouldn’t even do that. That no mechanic can see the sludge in the engine in a parking lot and not having the full equipment to run the tests it needs to inspect the car. So after a little back and forth he said he would give me names of third party inspectors to come and check out the car, after I tried calling several-I got the same answer. The handful of mechanics I spoke to told me to be very skeptical of that. No certified mechanic will perform an inspection offsite. I imagine they knew what the answer would be. They asked me to get the mechanic to come to the dealership as it’s their policy to not allow the car off the lot. I went to the dealer the next day with intentions to buy they car if it checked out OK, not fully ingoring the red flags already about the owner “s”. I was advised to get a pre purchase inspection (a normal protocol for a consumer doing their due diligence). Also saw that the car was on a lot for three weeks before being auctioned. The carfax came out clean but said 3 owners as opposed to one pr two which they had inconsistently advertised. ![]() They don’t provide Carfax so I went home and purchased the carfax. ![]() Stay away from here!! I was set to buy a jeep, had issues while I was test driving but they gave me their word they would address it! I also liked my sales guy Jonathon and wanted to give him he business because he did seem very genuine and trustworthy. G motors also would love to take your trade in for top dollar. G Motors offers financing for all types of buyers. Located in Houston, TX / 23 miles away from Houston, TX ![]()
