The transmission was shuddering when shifting.the dealer said to fix itthey would have to flush the transmission three times with new fluid anddo a computer upgrade to fix it.since my car has is six years old and over 75 thousand miles 86 thousand.they charged me $550.00 for this service. my problem is this is a known prolem with honda odyssey, its all over the internet.many different year models, the service mgr. and my salesman both told me 2014 was a year that had many transmission troubles. if its been going on for years they should fix it. and i should not have to pay for itbecause of their neglect warranty or not.
In the morning when i first turn on the car there is big jerk when changing gears from 15 to 20mph i turn the car off and back on and it goes away this happens only once in the morning. during the day driving the streets a very small shudder jerk is felt not as big as the one in the mornings but this one is constant through the day
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 honda odyssey. while driving various speeds, the vehicle jerked and did not change gears without warning. the vehicle was taken to bergstrom honda (located at 3285 s washburn st, oshkosh, wi 54904) where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 80,000.
Transmission shakes, judders about 20mph thru about 50mph. transmission jerks and lungs. i have seen countless other complaints *all the same* this should be recalled and fixed.
Went to start the the van wouldn't start. pushed the push start again it started. got 10 minutes down the road going about 30 mph and felt a hard jerk and it shook a few times and the started idling hard and jerked forward . sounded like something was going to fall out the bottom of it.no service lights came on. then got to work shut it off when back out 10 min later and the check engine light and the fcw light was on felt like it was still ideling hard. looks like there is a lot of complaints about the same issue. wonder why honda is not recalling them. i have 61,300 miles on mine. so how many complaints does a car company have to have to issue a recall. these are not inexpensive vehicles. may have to look into an attorney. i can see where this could be a safety issue.
2 potential safety issues occurring at 55000 miles or less with no recall from honda: transmission jerking at low speeds and warped brake rotors at low mileage: issue 1: when traveling up a hill (small to moderate grade) the van has a jerking motion and the needle on the odometer bounces back and forth about 200 rpms with the foot steady on the gas pedal. this has happened for quite some time on hills but now at 55000 miles the van is doing it on a level service while in 2nd gear (or when transitioning to 2nd from 1st). again the foot is steady on the gas pedal and the van jerks with the needle bouncing on the odometer a few hundred rpms back and forth for a short bit until into 3rd gear. i read of a tsb 16-060 that the cause is improper heating of the transmission fluid. the short-term fix is to drain and fill the transmission fluid while a future fix is a software update that is not yet completed. issue 2: when braking there is violent vibrations in the steering wheel. i took it ...
When accelerating from a stop light or from a situation such as slowed traffic in a stop and go setting, vehicle regularly lurches and transmission hesitates before locking into correct gear and suddenly accelerating forward. it seems as if the computer is searching for correct gear, but hesitates way too long to lock in as engine speeds have already increased. this happens most often after engine has warmed fully.
We came to a stop at a light and as we started moving when light was green in slow speed something made a big clunk and each time we came to a stop and pressed on gas pedal to proceed then clunk and jerk became louder and more intense. we pulled over turned van off started it again and it quit. we have it in the honda dealer now and they can't find anything. they did add transmission fluid. keeping over night per our choic out of two (or pick up and take home), to see if it does same thing in the morning. it's very scary we don't really trust it on trips. so disappointed. please help us! there is on youtube the very same thing happening to ours in same make and year van. https://youtu.be/4d2ljtbuaks. seems as though when it goes to shift into second thats when it clunk and jerks.
Car jerks violently during mild acceleration, when the transmission shifts between first and second speeds. this can occur right after startup or can start after the car has been running and the car slows down to first gear. it continues until the ignition is turned off. the problem dissappears when ignition is turned off. it occurs very randomly, i.e., intervals of weeks or even months. it is almost impossible to have it occur at the dealer service dept., and it does not give a computer code. the dealer checked the transmission and could not find the cause.
Despite keeping up with the required maintanence, i had to have the transmission rebuilt at 100k miles. shifts very hard when i'm in traffic- lurches. huge spot of paint peeling off the back (since ineasnt the original owner honda wouldn't fix it) paint is now starting to chip heat the chrome on. both doors.
Transmission bucking at low speed after driving a while. when i drive my van off the drive way, everything behaves normally. the issue happens when it was driven for 30 minutes or so. after on the freeway for 30 minutes or longer while stopping at the off ramp waiting for the green light, the vans has problem trying to shift between speed of 20-40mph. the vans body shakes violently as if it was driving on a road with multiple low speed bumps. the transmission has difficulty hunting for the correct gear. i can see the rpm moving up and down crazily as if it engages a lower gear and immediately decides to switch to higher gear multiple times. the problem is most prominent when the vehicle is at complete stops and trying to speed up on the incline street. when it is on high speed, such as 50 mph and above, it drives smoothly. i think the vehicle is trying to compensate between best gear ratio and best fuel economy gear at the given speed. a the speed where constant speed is not achieved such as hill climbing or accelerating from stop at the off ramp ...
When accelerating from a stopped position, the car did not accelerate and at approximately 20-30 the car violently bucked/jumped. this happened ever time i tried to accelerate onto an interstate highway, after slowing down on a city street, or in my neighborhoodt to make a turn or for a red light. so, it happened actually anytime the speed dropped below approximately 20 mph.
Clanking and jerking will not accelerate also was hit in dc traffic and it could not keep up. took it in a with video and honda acted as if they didn't know what was going on.
Transmission exhibits jerky shifting under low speed, light acceleration conditions. generally when going from first to second gear. not performing. at all what a car of this price should no recall but plenty of people are complaining about this lousy transmission.
When pulling out after a stop sign or turning right after a full stop the transmission will violently jerk the car forward. honda recommended flushing the transmission two times to fix "manufacturer defect" and it did not work, actually is now worse than before the flushing, we paid $297 and not fixed. see attached receipts.
