SOMEHOW MANAGED TO PUT THE PARK GEAR TO PULL OVER TO A LEFT TURN LINE TO AVOID COLLISION WITH OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. 911 WAS ALERTED SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS BLOCKING THE LEFT TURN LINE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO EVEN OPEN THE DOOR TO COME OUT OF THE VAN.

AFTER TWO WEEKS THE ENGINE SIGN CAME UP AND WE TOOK IT TO THE HONDA AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP. THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WHICH CAUSES THIS ENGINE SHUTDOWN ABRUPTLY. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER TWO DAYS THE BATTERY WENT DOWN. SO WE REPLACED THE BATTERY WITH A NEW ONE. ON JULY 21, MY COUSIN WAS DRIVING THE VAN AND THE SAME HAPPENED AGAIN.

THEY OK'D US TO TAKE THE VEHICLE SINCE THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE . WE ARE VERY MUCH CONCERNED TO RIDE IT AGAIN FEAR OF SAFETY TO OUR OWN LIFE AND THE OTHER INNOCENT FELLOWS ON THE ROAD. WE REPORTED THE HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SUGGESTED TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF SOMETHING HAPPENS WHEN WE DRIVE THE VAN.

ON JULY 15, 2017 WE WERE LOADING THE VAN FOR VACATION AND THE PASSENGER SLIDING DOOR FELL OFF, LANDING ON MY 14 YEAR DAUGHTERS LEG/FOOT. ON AUGUST 28, 2017 MY SON WENT TO UNLOCK THE VAN AND PRESSED THE SLIDING DOOR OPENER BY ACCIDENT, THE PASSENGER DOOR AGAIN FELL OFF. THE DOOR FELL OFF ON TOP OF MY 8 YEAR OLD SON. THE KIDS WERE THEREFORE LATE FOR THEIR FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. WHEN THE DOOR FELL OFF, IT BENT THE TRACK AND SCRATCHED THE WHOLE PASSENGER BACK SIDE OF MY VAN. WHILE MY DAUGHTER AND I TRIED PUTTING THE DOOR BACK ON THE DOOR SLIPPED OUT OF THE TRACK AGAIN AND DAMAGED THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR, DENTING THE BOTTOM OF THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. THAT AFTERNOON I WENT TO THE HONDA DEALER IN GRANDVILLE MICHIGAN AND TALKED TO RANDY HOWES. HE REFUSED TO LISTEN TO ME AND DIRECTED ME TO LOOK IN THE MANUAL AND CONTACT HONDA. SO I CALLED THE 1-800 NUMBER IN MY MANUAL. I RETOLD WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS A SERIOUS INCIDENT AND THAT I WOULD HEAR BACK WITH IN 2 DAYS. AFTER A WEEK A BEGAN CALLING AGAIN, I FINALLY RECEIVED A CALL BACK FROM RIO WARDANA FROM HONDA. I RETOLD HIM AGAIN WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND TOLD HIM I WANTED THE DOOR FIXED AND THE DAMAGED FIXED THAT THE DOOR CAUSED. HE WAS VERY DISRESPECTFUL AND TOLD ME HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF ANY DOOR FALLING OFF A HONDA VAN. I INFORMED HIM OF THE 100S OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE BUT HE REFUSED TO LISTEN. I WAS TOLD THE DOOR FALLING OFF WAS MY FAULT AND NOT HONDAS. I ASKED HIM WHAT TO DO BECAUSE THE OTHER DOOR WAS ACTING FUNNY AS WELL. HE SAID TO USE THE HATCH BACK DOOR FOR ENTERING IF I NEEDED TO AND HE HUNG UP ON ME. I HAVE BEEN BATTLING HONDA EVER SINCE AND CAN GET NO WHERE. MY DOOR IS NOT DANGEROUS. I CANNOT HAVE MY CHILDREN NEAR IT WITH THE FEAR OF IT FALLING OFF AGAIN AND I CAN FIND NO ONE TO HELP ME WITH THIS CASE. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO TO HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR VEHICLE SAFETY CONCERN!!

MY HONDA ODYSSEY SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING, AT THAT TIME YOU CAN'T TURN THE STEERING WHEEL (OR IT IS VERY VERY HARD TO TURN). THIS IS PRECEDED BY USUALLY THE LIGHTS ON DASHBOARDS FLASHING. SOMETIMES IT WILL SHUT OFF (DASHBOARD WILL GO BLACK) AND COME RIGHT BACK AFTER FEW SECONDS. OTHER TIMES THE I HAVE TO STOP AND TURN IT ON AGAIN AND IT WORKS. YESTERDAY IT TURNED OFF AND THE CAR CAME TO STOP THEN I MOVED THE BATTERY LITTLE AND THE HAZARD LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. WHEN IT'S COMPLETELY DEAD EVEN HAZARD LIGHT WOULD NOT BLINK. TODAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND EVEN AFTER MOVING THE BATTERY IT DID NOT GET POWER BACK. I HAD LEFT THE HAZARD LIGHT ON BUT IT WAS NOT BLINKING. HOWEVER AFTER AROUND 5 MINUTES OR SO ON IT'S OWN THE HAZARD LIGHT STARTED BLINKING AND I COULD DRIVE OFF.

WHILE DRIVING 60MPH ON THE FREEWAY, I HEARD A "CLICK" SUDDENLY ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD WENT OUT AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. THE SECURITY KEY LIGHT BLINKED LETTING ME KNOW IT WAS A SECURITY ISSUE BUT MY CHIP KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION THE WHOLE TIME. I HAD TO STEER OFF TO THE SHOULDER, PUT VEHICLE IN PARK, TURN KEY OFF, THEN BACK ON AGAIN AND IT DROVE AWAY FINE. I'M REALLY THANKFUL THAT IT DID NOT DO THIS DURING PEAK TRAFFIC OR IT EASILY COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. SINCE I WAS BEHIND THE WHEEL ON THE FREEWAY, I DID NOT TAKE A PICTURE OF THE DASH COMPLETELY OFF EXCEPT FOR THE SECURITY KEY LIGHT FLASHING.

MY WIFE TRANSPORTS OUR GRAND CHILDREN, THE CHILD'S CAR SEAT HAS BEEN MOVED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN THERE WOULD BE NO ESCAPE FOR THEM. I NEED AN ANSWER. I SEE THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ON LINE THE DEALERS HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEMS THEY RE-SURFACE A SHORT TIME LATER.

THE PASSENGER SIDE POWER SLIDING REAR DOOR BEGAN INTERMITTENTLY HAVING ISSUES CLOSING-IT WOULD CLOSE ABOUT 75% OF THE WAY, THEN BEEP AS IT DOES IF THERE IS AN OBJECT BLOCKING IT'S PATH, THEN OPEN BACK UP. I WOULD HAVE TO PULL THE DOOR TO HELP GUIDE IT CLOSED. BEFORE I COULD GET IT TO THE HONDA DEALER, THE DRIVER SIDE POWER SLIDING REAR DOOR BEGAN DOING SOMETHING SIMILAR. IT WOULD CLOSE ONLY ABOUT 90%, BUT I WAS UNABLE TO PULL IT FULLY CLOSED. I FLIPPED THE SWITCH TO TURN THE DOORS FROM POWER OPERATION TO MANUAL OPERATION, THINKING EVERYTHING WOULD BE OK. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR CLOSED MANUALLY. HOWEVER, WHEN WE ARRIVED AT OUR DESTINATION, I TRIED TO OPEN THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR (SWITCH WAS STILL IN THE MANUAL POSITION), AND WAS ONLY ABLE TO OPEN IT ABOUT 8-10 INCHES. I COULD NOT GET MY 2 YR OLD DAUGHTER OUT OF HER CAR SEAT. I PUSHED WITH ALL OF MY STRENGTH, AND IT WOULD NOT BUDGE. I RAN BACK AROUND, FLIPPED THE SWITCH BACK TO AUTO, AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE DOOR OPEN THAT WAY. HOWEVER, THIS ORDEAL HAS SHOWN ME A SEVERE SAFETY FLAW WITH THE POWER SLIDING DOORS ON THE 2007 ODYSSEY. IF WE HAD BEEN IN A SITUATION WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS ON FIRE--POSSIBLY FROM THE NOW RECALLED FUEL MECHANISM THAT CAN CATCH FIRE--I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET THEM OUT. IN AN EMERGENCY, WHEN EVERY SECOND COUNTS, THE DOOR ISSUE COULD LITERALLY HAVE MADE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. MY HUSBAND LOOKED AT THE DOOR THAT EVENING, AND HE, TOO, WAS UNABLE TO GET THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR TO BUDGE WHEN SET TO MANUAL OPERATION. HE HAD TO LIFT THE BACK OF IT AND PULL IT OPEN. ALSO, HE LOOKED AT THE DRIVERS SIDE SLIDING DOOR AND NOTICED METAL SHAVINGS ON THE DOOR WHERE METAL HAD LITERALLY BEEN GRINDING ON METAL. THE ROLLER MECHANISM IS NO LONGER WORKING. I AM TAKING IT IN TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER. *TR

ON MY DAUGHTERS 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY, IT HAS AN AUTOMATIC UP FEATURE FOR THE DRIVERS WINDOW. ONCE THE WINDOW STARTS UP (CLOSING), IF YOU PUT DOWN PRESSURE ON THE WINDOW IT WILL REVERSE, DO DOWN A FEW INCHES AND STOP. BUT IF YOU PUT PRESSURE ON THE WINDOW, LIKE A CHILD LEANING OUT THE WINDOW, AND IT STARTS UP THE OVERRIDE FEATURE WILL NOT STOP THE WINDOW AND MAKE IT GO DOWN A FEW INCHES. THE WINDOW WILL CONTINUE TO CLOSE, ONLY STOPPING WHEN THE MOTOR IS OVERPOWERED. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN UNTIL QUITE A BIT OF FORCE IS APPLIED TO WHATEVER IS BLOCKING THE WINDOW, AND IN THE CASE OF A SMALL CHILD IT COULD CAUSE QUITE A BIT OF INJURY. I HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED A VEHICLE WITH AN AUTO-UP FEATURE FOR A WINDOW. WITH THE AMOUNT OF FORCE IT TAKES TO OVERLOAD THE MOTOR A CHILD CAN BE SERIOUSLY INJURED. *TR

I CONTEND THIS IS RELATED TO DESIGN DEFECT OF THE FRONT BUMPERS AND LACK OF GRILL IN LARGE OPENING. HONDA PROVIDED NO COMPENSATION AND EXTENDED WARRANTY REFUSED BY STATING "DEALER STATED ROCK IMPACT IS CONSIDERED A COLLISION UNDER WARRANTY" A GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALS THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH MANY MODELS OF HONDA, NOT JUST ODYSSEY. *TR

MY 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY LOST IT'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FUNCTIONING - WHEN IT DID ONLY THE DRIVER'S DOOR COULD BE OPENED. THE OTHERS ARE AUTOMATIC AND WOULD NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. I HAD TO PULL MY 2 GRANDCHILDREN FROM THE BACK THRU MY DOOR. IF THIS HAD BEEN A WRECK & THE DRIVER'S SEAT WAS BLOCKED BY DAMAGE, NO ONE COULD GET OUT, AND NO ONE COULD GET A DOOR OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE TO HELP. *TR

MY 2 WEEK OLD HONDA ODYSSEY HAS 1200 MILES ON IT AND A DAMAGED AIR CONDITIONER A/C CONDENSER. A ROCK WENT THROUGH THE WIDE OPEN FRONT GRILL AND EASILY PUNCTURED IT. THE REPAIR COST WAS $600. MY DEALER SAYS IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY. I COMPLAINED TO HONDA, BUT HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM THEM YET. MANY ONLINE CAR FORUMS REPORT THAT THISWAS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW IN THE ODYSSEY AND I AGREE. I'M GOING TO SPEND $600 TO REPAIR AND NO TELLING HOW MUCH TO TRY TO PREVENT MORE DAMAGE TO MY BRAND NEW $30,000 VEHICLE. THAT MADE NO SENSE. I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA ,AND I WILL TELL EVERYONE THAT CROSSES MY PATH THAT THEY SHOULDN'T EITHER!*AK
