my 2003 honda odyssey needs new motor mounts after only 41,000 miles…yes front and rear broke, etc…big bucks to replace!! drove cars over 100K miles and never heard of such a problem…guess this is special design of all new hondas to keep service money flowing in…they would never recall…or fix correctly!!!

We seem to get lots of posts on this (Odyssey motor mounts), you might find a Honda forum, see what they have to say there.

This does seem to be an issue for the Odyssey and MDX. I understand your frustration, but almost every car has a weak spot or two.

Have you asked about goodwill help on the repair, especially if you bought the car and serviced it regularly at your local dealer?
