My odyssey dropped to 20 mph on the freeway so I rolled in here as it was the first repair shop I saw and I was worried my van would stop at any moment.
After diagnosing the problem as faulty solenoids I was skeptical and didn't want to be taken advantage of so called the dealership nearby to see if they could fix it. They couldn't fit me in and I needed to get two puppies home to San Diego so after conference calls with the owner (who was kind and humoring me) and dealership they agreed with his diagnosis so I went ahead had him fix the issue.
Dealership only sells the entire part rather than just solenoids but he explained that he could replace only the solenoids and was fairly sure this would fix it. Worked like a charm and car has been running perfectly a month on. This saved me several hours and the associated labor charges.
Not only did he know exactly what he was talking about, he wanted me to feel confident and sent me to drive the car around for 20 minutes and come back before he'd take any money from me. He stayed late to fix the vehicle and get me on my way and went above and beyond when I questioned him repeatedly. I kept the rest of the part (sorry, can't remember name) and have in case I ever need it but thankfully it was not a mechanical issue.
Would definitely go back, great service and put up with me. read more
