LAST YEAR SPENT 1000.00 AT HONDA DEALER TO FIX REAR DRIVERS SIDE POWER DOOR AS IT WAS NOT CLOSING COMPLETELY AND HAD OPENED 1X WHILE DRIVING. PASSENGER SIDE REAR POWER DOOR NOW EXHIBITING SAME PROBLEM, TODAY KEPT OPENING AND CLOSING BY ITSELF, HAS OPENED 1X BY ITSELF WHILE DRIVING (2 YEAR OLD IN SEAT), AND EVERY DAY HAS DIFFICULTY CLOSING COMPLETELY. DAILY, AFTER OPENING THE DOOR FOR MY KIDS TO GET IN, THE DOOR DOESN'T SHUT AND AUTOMATICALLY RE-OPENS UP OR WILL CLOSE BUT NOT 100% AND DOOR "ALARM" SOUNDS AND LIGHT IS ON DASH NOTING OPEN DOOR. OFTEN YOU CAN MANUALLY CLOSE DOOR, AFTER SEVERAL, SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. AS OF TODAY, NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR. *TR

WHEN COME TO STOP CAN HEARD LOUD THUMPING-SOLID BANGING NOISE IN REAR. BROUGHT BACK TO DEALER, TEST DROVE WITH TECH. DEALER SAID NOISE IS NORMAL FROM GAS MOVING IN TANK. IF THAT'S THE CASE S/B SLUSHING NOISE RATHER THAN HARD METAL BANGING NOISE. IF WHAT DEALER SAY IS TRUE, GAS MOVING, THEN LOGIC TELLS US THAT THE WHOLE GAS TANK IS MOVING- RIGHT. WE ALSO CALLED HONDA USA, THEY WERE NICE ABOUT IT BUT ONLY ASKED US TO BRING BACK TO DEALER. HELP.*AK

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
