THE SLIDING DOORS ON MY HONDA ODYSSEY 2001 DO NOT STOP WHEN CLOSING AND A PERSON GETS IN THE WAY. IT IS WAY TOO DANGEROUS!*AK

AFTER GETTING OUR 30000 MILES MAINTENANCE COMPLETED WHICH INCLUDED (BUT NOT LIMITED TO) AN OIL CHANGE AND REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION FLUID, WE STARTED NOTICING A HESITATION IN THE CAR WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS DEPRESSED. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS REPLACED, IT TOOK LONGER THAN EXPECTED THUS I ASSUMED THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER TO HAVE THEM ASSESS THE SITUATION AND THEY FOUND THAT TWO OF THE ENGINE MOUNTS WERE BROKEN. THE CAR ONLY HAS 34K MILES ON IT. IT SEEMS PREMATURE THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD HAPPEN, THEREFORE, I FEEL IT NECESSARY TO BRING THIS TO YOUR ATTENTION TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY OF THIS PART (THE ENGINE MOUNTS).*AK

VEHICLE WAS TAKEN FOR A ROUTINE GENERAL MAINTENANCE, AND MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT ENGINE MOUNTS WORE OUT PREMATURELY.*AK

CONSUMER'S DAUGHTER FINGER BECAME WEDGED IN THE HOLE IN THE MALE SECTION OF THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE. THE BUCKLE WAS CUT FROM THE VEHICLE AND CARRIED TO THE HOSPITAL FOR REMOVAL. THE CHILD SUFFERED TISSUE DAMAGE AND MUSCLES BRUISING.*AK

I OWN A 2001 HONDA ODESSEY. 2 WEEKS AGO WHILE DRIVING THE VAN BEGAN SHIFTING HARD UP AND DOWN. IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING. MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR WITH ME AND I WENT TO TURN LEFT AND PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL DOWN TO GO BEFORE A CAR CAME AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD!! THEN THE CAR SUDDENLY SHIFTED SENDING US FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY. I DID NOT WANT TO CHANCE ANYTHING HAPPENING AND TOOK IT RIGHT INTO A TRANSMISSION PLACE. THEY TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REBUILT OR REPLACED. I WAS SURPRISED BECAUSE IT WAS SUCH A NEW CAR AND WAS SUPPOSED TO BE "RELIABLE" . ALSO, I HAD ANOTHER CAR WHERE THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND THE EFFECTS WERE NOT SO SUDDEN AND FREIGHTENING! I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WHEN I BEGAN TO RESEARCH MY PROBLEM AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WERE MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. I WAS EVEN MORE UPSET WHEN I CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL, ONLY A "GOODWILL" WARRANTY. THEN THEY TOLD ME THAT I COULD NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS WARRANTY BECAUSE MY CAR WAS INITALLY PURCHACED IN CANADA AND THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY. SHE PROCEDED TO TELL ME THAT THEY WILL ONLY FIX THE CAR IF THE NHTSA TELLS THEM THEY HAVE TO ISSUE A RECALL. I THOUGHT A HONDA WAS A HONDA. I AM EVEN MORE FRUSTRATED IN READING OTHER ACCOUNTS WHERE REPLACED AND REBUILT TRANSMISSIONS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. *AK

CONSUMER NOTICED THAT TRANSMISSION WAS ACTING DIFFERENT WHEN STARTING. DEALERSHIP SAID THAT TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MANUFACTURER DOESN'T WANT TO HONOR WARRANTY BECAUSE IT WAS MADE OUTSIDE OF THE U.S. *LA *SC

AT 49,000 MILES THE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS WERE REPLACED BECAUSE OF A ROARING NOISE IN THE FRONT END WHICH BECAME LOUDER AND LOUDER DAILY. THESE BEARINGS ARE SEALED AND SHOULD AT LEAST LAST FOR 100,000 MILES. THEY WERE REPLACED AND THE NOISE STOPPED.*AK

THE MINIVAN HAS AUTOMATIC SLIDING REAR DOORS THAT DO NOT STOP CLOSING EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN OBSTRUCTION. I HAVE 2 SMALL KIDS AND AM VERY AFRAID THAT IF THE DOOR DOES NOT STOP WHEN I AM OBTRUCTING IT, THAT IT IS SIMILARLY NOT STOP FOR UNKNOWING KIDS.

THE POWER SLIDING DOOR FAILS TO OPEN ELECTRONICALLY, EITHER THROUGH THE REMOTE, THE DRIVER'S CONTROLS ON THE DASH, OR THE HANDLES (BOTH INTERIOR & EXTERIOR) ON THE DOOR. THIS ONLY AFFECTS ONE DOOR (SO FAR). THE DEALER SAYS THAT WASHERS HAVE TO BE ATTACHED TO FOUR GROUNDING WIRES INSIDE THE DOOR IN ORDER FOR THE ELECTRICAL CIRCUITRY TO WORK CORRECTLY, AT A COST OF $240. IT IS ALREADY OUT OF WARRANTY, BUT IT SEEMS THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY TO REPAIR WHAT APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN EITHER THE DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING OF THE VEHICLE.

THIRD BRAKE LIGHT FAILED DUE TO BULB BEING DEFORMED FROM HEAT BUILD-UP. *LA *SC *JB

I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT WHEN MY HONDA 2001 ODYSSEY SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTED WHILE DOING ABOUT 50 MPH. THE SHIFTING WAS CRAZY AND HIGHLY ERRATIC. IT HAS BEEN FIXED BY THE DEALER BUT HAS TO BEGGED FOR A LOANER CAR FROM THE MANUFACTURER. *LA

THE 2001 HONDA ODYSSEY FAILS TO RESTART FROM TIME TO TIME REQUIRING JUMPSTART. BATTERY WAS CHANGED EARLY LAST YEAR WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND THE PROBLEM STILL HAPPENS. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM SO FAR. THE LATEST ONE OCCURRED YESTERDAY WITHIN ABOUT THREE WEEKS OF THE PREVIOUS SUCH INCIDENT. THE VAN HAS BECOME VERY UNRELIABLE NOW. *LA

HONDA IS NOT HONORING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT THEY HAVE ON THE TRANSMISSIONS OF THE 2001 HONDA ODYSSEY. I PURCHASED A HONDA RECENTLY AND IT TURNS OUT THE SELLER DID NOT DISCLOSE THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT. I FOUND OUT 5 DAYS AFTER BRINGING IT HOME FROM A HONDA DEALER. I ALSO FOUND OUT HONDA HAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS BUT WILL NOT COVER IT BECAUSE THE CAR CAME FROM CANADA WHICH WAS ALSO NOT DISCLOSED. BOTH HONDA US AND HONDA CANADA HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTIES ON THIS BUT WILL NOT COVER IT BECAUSE IT IS A CANADIAN HONDA (ALTHOUGH IT WAS SOLD BY A US DEALER IN THE US TO THE PARTY I BOUGHT IT FROM) AND BECAUSE I AM A US CITIZEN. I READ AN ARTICLE IN USA TODAY THAT SAID HONDA HAD SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THEIR TRANSMISSIONS THAT WERE EXTENDING THE WARRANTY ON THIS YEAR OF HONDA ODYSSEY AND OTHER VEHICLES THEY MAKE TO 100,00 MILES OR 7 YEARS DUE TO CONSUMER COMPLAINTS MADE TO THE NHTSA BECAUSE NHTSA WAS GETTING READY TO ISSUE A RECALL. HONDA HAS REFUSED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY ON THE HONDA I PURCHASED AND IT ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT AND IS A 2001. I DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT AS HONDA TERMS GRAY MARKET CARS. AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED MOST OF THE HONDA'S ARE MADE IN CANADA THAT COME INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST , SOME ARE ALLOTED FOR CANADA AND SOME FOR THE US AS I HAVE FOUND OUT. BUT ME AS THE AVERAGE CONSUMER KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THIS AND HONDA DOES NOT WANT TO HONOR THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THAT. HONDA MADE THIS AUTOMOBILE, THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANS

ODYSSEY SURGES AT SPEEDS OF 40-45 MPH. DURING THIS TIME THE RPM SURGES TO 4000 AND THEN BACK DOWN TO 1.5-2000. DEALER HAD ATTEMPTED TO FIX PROBLEM 5 TIMES, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM IS SO INTERMITTENT THAT THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN OR DUPLICATED THE ISSUE. THEY EVEN KEPT THE VAN FOR A FULL WEEK AND DROVE IT. AMERICA HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE IS VERY UNRESPONSIVE AS I HAVE FILED ISSUE WITH THEM AS WELL. THEY JUST SEEM THAT THEY WOULD RATHER HIDE THE PROBLEM THAN RESOLVE THE ISSUE AND HOPE THAT THE ISSUE BECOMES LARGE AFTER THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE QUALITY OF THIS HONDA PRODUCT.*AK

PROBLEM WITH SWAY BAR LINKS ON 01 HONDA ODYSEEY. *AK

WHILE THE VAN WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY THE CONSUMER HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE VAN LIKE METAL HITTING METAL. THE NOISE WAS DUE TO THE COIL SPRING BREAKING.

VEHICLE FIRE WHILE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF AND PARKED.*MR THE CONSUMER HAD BACKED HIS CAR INTO THE PARKING SPOT, AND THE TAIL PIPE WAS JAMMED INTO THE MULCH. THE BLOCKING OF THE TAILPIPE CAUSED THE HEAT OF THE EXHAUST TO START THE MULCH ON FIRE SPREADING TO THE PLASTIC BUMPER OF THE CAR AND INTO THE CAR. AFTER THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED IT CAME TO THE CONSUMER ATTENTION THAT THE TAIL PIPE WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD PAY FOR ALL EXPENSES AND REPAIRS MADE AS A RESULT. *CB

AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS APPLY DANGEROUS PRESSURE TO PEOPLE BEFORE RETRACTING. I HAVE BEEN HURT TWICE BY BEING CRUSHED AND BRUISED BY DOORS CLOSING ON MY BODY WHEN DOOR WAS ACCIDENTLY ACTIVATED WHILE LOADING CHILDREN AND PASSENGERS. THE SENSOR TO RETRACT DOES NOT OPERATE AS INDICATED BY MANUFACTURER. THIS DEFECT POSES SERIOUS DANGER TO CHILDREN. ALSO, BOTH SLIDING DOORS HAVE BEEN MALFUNCTIONING SINCE OCT 2002. WILL ALMOST CLOSE, THEN RETRACT WITH NOTHING OBSTRUCTING THEM. DEALER HAS ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR THIS MALFUNCTION FOUR TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR STARTING AT 25,000 MILES WITH NO SUCCESS. FAULTY JUNCTION SWITCHES HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND DOORS REHONED BUT MALFUNCTIONS CONTINUE TO HAPPEN APPROX EVERY COUPLE MONTHS AND MILEAGE IS NOW AT 38,000. DRIVER SIDE WINDOW IS VERY SLOW TO RAISE. FAULTY REGULATOR WAS REPLACED OCT, 2002. ALMOST A YEAR LATER, THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO OCCUR WITH DEALER SAYING IT JUST NEEDS CLEANING. CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED THREE TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR FOR THIS PROBLEM.

A FEW DAYS AGO WE HAD TO TAKE OUR 01 ODYSSEY TO THE HONDA DEALER TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FOR THE THIRD TIME. LIKE CLOCKWORK EVERY 15000 TO 20000 MILES THIS CAR NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION. IS THERE ANYTHING WE ALL CAN DO TO ELIMINATE THIS ANNOYING PROBLEM FOREVER. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

SEAT BELT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO USE, PER CONSUMER. IF BELT IS NOT PULLED ALL THE WAY OUT, IT WILL LOCK UP EVEN WHEN NOT IN MOTION.*AK BELT COULD LOCK AROUND SEAT PRIOR TO CONNECTING WITH THE BUCKLE REQUIRING SEAT DISASSEMBLY TO BE REMOVED. IN ADDITION, INDIVIDUALS WITH 30 INCHES OR LONGER BACKS RECEIVE INADEQUATE PROTECTION FROM HEAD REST AT TALLEST POSITION. *PH

TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS ON 2001 ODYSSEY'S AREN'T LIMITED TO US MODELS. WE PURCHASED A CANADIAN MODEL, AND ARE ON THE 3RD TRANSMISSION, AND NONE OF OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIPS WILL ASSIST US BECAUSE IT'S A CANADIAN MODEL. DEALER WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS CANADIAN MODEL, AND THAT WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE WARRANTY COVERAGE WAS. DEALER INFORMED US THAT 2ND TRANSMISSION WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, AND THEN SUED US BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T COLLECT FROM AMERICAN OR CANADIAN HONDA. WE HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA PRODUCT CONSUMER, BUT THE TREATMENT WE'VE RECEIVED FOR SUCH HAS BEEN A SEVERE DISAPPOINTMENT. WE WON'T BE PURCHASING HONDA IN THE FUTURE. *AK

2001 HONDA VAN : AUTOMATIC SLIDING SIDE DOOR WAS CLOSING AFTER SOMEONE ENGAGED REMOTE DOOR CLOSE.

FRONT PASSENGER TIRE (FIRESTONE INFINITY) EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING CAUSING VEHICLE TO VEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS FIRESTONE TIRE IS STANDARD ON THE LX VERSION OF THE ODYSSEY. DESPITE ASSURANCES FROM THE DEALER THAT THESE TIRES ARE SAFE, THE TIRE NEVERTHELESS EXPLODED. TIRE WAS WELL MAINTAINED, PROPERLY INFLATED AND ROUTINELY ROTATED. DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE I DID. TRADE UP FOR THE MICHELIN TIRES ON THE EX MODEL. THE FIRESTONE TIRES ARE NOT SAFE. DESPITE WHAT THE MANUFACTURER SAYS, THEY ARE NOT SAFE. FIRESTONE GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND AND ONLY WANTED TO CREDIT ME WITH A FEW DOLLARS OFF ANOTHER FIRESTONE TIRE (HOW CONVENIENT!), DESPITE HAVING 32000 MILES LEFT ON A 70,000 MILE TIRE.
