Odyssey 4-cyl

  • 157,400 miles
Honda Odyssey LX 1996 would not start in a parking lot so I called for a towing service. Towing service tried to unlock engine using door lock trick and the engine started. Two days later the engine died while on the highway. I had to coast to an exit ramp, and it would not start at all after that. Modot truck stopped to check it out and recommended to have it towed. Vehicle was towed to Honda dealer; said it was an ignition switch defect.
