Air bags, frontal, driver side, inflator moduleJan 17, 2020
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2001-2002 Acura 3.2CL, 2000-2003 Acura 3.5RL, 2000-2001 Acura 3.2TL, Honda CR-V and Honda Odyssey, 2001-2002 Acura MDX and 2000 Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Coupe, and Civic Sedan vehicles. These vehicles may have received a replacement driver frontal air bag module as part of a vehicle repair. Due to a manufacturing issue, the replacement NADI inflator may absorb moisture, causing the inflator to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the air bags in the vehicles, replacing the driver frontal air bag inflator with an inflator of a different design, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138.

REPLACED SOLENOIDS IN TRANS AT 62000K THEN A WEEK LATER REPLACED TRANS/TORQUE CONVERTOR (500 OUT OF POCKET) WITH FACTORY REBUILD TRANSMISSION 10,000 MILES LATER AT 72000 HAD TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION AGAIN. I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WON'T LAST AND NEXT TIME I WILL HAVE TO BEAR TOTAL COSTS. THESE TRANSMISSION DON'T LAST. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS REPLACED TRANSMISSION MORE THAN ONCE WITH LOW MILEAGE. FEEL THAT HONDA NEEDS TO REPLACE WITH UPGRADED TRANS AND FURTHER WARRANTY UP TO 150K OR LIFE OF OWNERSHIP???*AK

2000 HONDA ODYSSEY MINIVAN'S TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE DRIVING. THE VAN WAS PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER OF 1999 AND HAS 51,200 MILES ON IT. THE VAN HAS HAD ALL THE RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE. A NEW VEHICLE WITH ALL THE REQUIRED MAINTENANCE AND PROPER CARE SHOULD NOT HAVE THE TRANSMISSION FAILING ALREADY. HAVE TALKED WITH HONDA MECHANIC WHO SAYS THAT 2000 V6 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN'S HAVE A KNOWN TRANSMISSION PROBLEM BUT HONDA MOTOR COMPANY IS NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY OR DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MECHANIC ALSO STATED THAT DALLAS AREA HONDA DEALERSHIPS ARE SEEING MORE 2000 HONDA ODYSSEYS VANS WITH FAILED TRANSMISSIONS. FAY OIA HAVE ALSO RESEARCHED ON YOUR NHTSA AND HAVE FOUND MANY OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD FAILED TRANSMISSIONS ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL. WE WANT HONDA TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM AND FIX THE TRANSMISSION AND REPLACE ALL 2000 V6 HONDA ODYSSEY TRANSMISSIONS.*AK

Power train, Nov 29, 2001
TRANSMISSION SLIPS INTO NEUTRAL WHEN IN THE DRIVE POSITION WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP IS EVALUATING THE PROBLEM BUT WON'T CONFIRM YET (4 DAYS NOW). I HAVE BECOME AWARE THRU OTHER ODYSSEY OWNERS THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM WITH MANY TRANSMISSIONS GOING QUICKLY OR EVENTUALLY (1999-2001 ENGINE MODELS). THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED AT NO CHARGE FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE BY THE AUTO MAKER. APPARENTLY, THE REPLACEMENTS ARE "USED/REPAIRED" TRANSMISSIONS THAT ALSO FAIL. *AK
Power train, Oct 31, 2001
TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE DRIVING. DEALER "FIXED" TRANSMISSION PER MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDATION AND SPECIFICATIONS AND IT FAILED A SECOND TIME ONE WEEK AFTER FIRST REPAIR. I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT, BUT I COULD HAVE HAD I BEEN ACCELERATING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY OR ANOTHER SITUATION WHEN NOT GETTING INTO GEAR WOULD BE A DANGER.*AK

Power train, Visibility, Equipment, Dec 18, 2000, crash
ON JUNE 16, 2000 MY 2000 HONDA ODYESSY WAS REAR ENDED OR HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE IN THE REAR BUMPER. THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WITH ONLY 6,000 MILES ON THE ODYESSY. I WAS SOUTHBOUND ON EUCLID AVE. AT INTERSTATE 5. I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT IN A UPHILL POSITION. I WAS THE FIRST VEHICLE AT THE LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURN GREEN, I PROCEEDED TO GO AND MY ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION SLIPPED AND THEN CAUGHT AND THEN THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. THIS CAUSED THE ODYSSEY TO LURCH FORWARD AND THEN STOP SUDDENLY. WHEN THE ODYSSEY STOPPED I STILL HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS TO GO SO THAT NO BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON TO WARN THE DRIVERS TO MY REAR THAT MY VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO STOP. MY ODYSSEY WAS HIT IN THE REAR BUMPER BY THE VEHICLE TO MY REAR. THE ACCIDENT WAS REPORTED TO THE ANAHEIM POLICE WHO CAME TO THE SCENE AND MADE REPORT # DR NO 00-23199. THE VEHICLE TO MY REAR WAS WITHOUT INSURANCE. I REPORTED THIS ACCIDENT TO HONDA OF AMERICA AND THE CALLED ME BACK TO INFORM ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DAMAGES TO MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD AN APPRAISAL OF MY DAMAGES YET IT COULD BE SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS. I AM HOLDING OFF BECAUSE ON THE APPRAISAL BECAUSE THE VEHICLE BEHIND MINE HAD NO INSURANCE AND AMERICAN HONDA CLAIMS NO RESPONSIBILITY. ON A SEPARATE INCIDENT ON JUNE 24, 2000 MY LEFT REAR TIRE BLUE OUT AT 70 MPH WITH ONLY 7,500 MILES ON IT. I CAME TO A SAFE STOP AND HAD THE TIRE REPLACED FOR $100.00 . ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THAT THE BRAKES GRIND WITH A METAL TO METAL SOUND WHEN COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THAT MY POWER STEERING SOMETIMES HESITATES AND JERKS. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS WHEN RUNNING THE REAR AIRCONDITIONING ON HIGH THE REAR BLOWER SPEED FLUCTUATES LIKE AS IF IT HAS A BAD CONNECTION. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT I HAVE NOTICED SINCE THE COLDER WEATHER AROUND NOVEMBER, 2000 WHEN I USE THE DEFROSTER ON THE FRONT WINDOWS IT SMELLS LIKE AN ELECTRICAL FIRE, OR LIKE WIRES ARE BURNING. *AK (DOT NUMBER: M30D TIRESIZE: P215/65R16)

WHEN THE VAN IS SHIFT ON REVERSE AND GOING BACK ABOUT THREE FEET THERE IS A LOUD BANG IN THE FRONT OF THE VAN, IT IS LIKE GOING OVER SOMETHING BUT AFTER LOOKING EACH TIME IT HAPPENTS THERE IS NOTHING IN THE PAVEMENT. I ALREADY TOOK IT ONCE TO THE DEALER BUT THEY COULDNT FIND NOTHING. IT HAS HAPPENT AGAIN TWO MORE TIMES AND I WILL TAKE IT BACK TO DEALER.

WHEN IT IS IN 4TH GEAR - 50 MPH, ENGINE DROPS TO 1500 RPM AND NOISE BEGINS. IT SOUNDS LIKE MUFFLED VALVE CLATTERING. HONDA DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THAT IT'S DESIGNED THAT WAY, AND I CONFIRMED THAT OTHER VAN HAS SAME NOISE. THERE IS PART(S) IN TRANSMISSION THAT IS FAILING ON MOST VAN. THE NOISE WILL GET LOUDER - POSSIBILITY OF CATASTROPHIC FAILURE ON THE ROAD, A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE!!!!( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P215/65R16 )

TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT APPROXIMATELY 1000 MILES DUE TO DEFECTIVE TORQUE CONVERTER ACCORDING TO SERVICING HONDA DEALERSHIP. VAN PULLS HARD TO THE RIGHT. PROBLEM FIRST NOTED DAY AFTER DELIVERY. HAS BEEN IN DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. DEALER REPLACED FIRESTONE TIRES WITH MICHELINS, REPLACED WHEELS AND PERFORMED 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT. PULLING TO RIGHT PROBLEM NOT SOLVED. RETURNED TO DEALER AND THE SERVICE MANAGER VERIFIED THAT IT IS NOT A WHEEL, TIRE NOR ALIGNMENT PROBLEM. SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT IT IS PROBABLY DUE TO THE CROWN IN THE ROAD. VAN PULLS HARD TO RIGHT ON ALL ROADS WITHIN A MATTER OF SECONDS OF TAKING HANDS OF OFF THE WHEEL. MY OTHER TWO VEHICLES DRIVEN ON THE SAME ROADS AND IN THE SAME LANES DO NOT PULL TO THE RIGHT NOR LEFT. *AK( DOT NUMBER: )

THIS IS A BRAND NEW MINIVAN, PURCHASED WITH ONLY 9 MILES IN ODOMETER. AFTER A WEEK OF DRIVING IT, IT BEGAN TO FEEL LIKE IT NEED IT MORE REV IN ORDER TO PICK-UP SPEED, SPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING IN FREEWAY CONDITIONS (TRAFFIC). THE VAN DID NOT DOWNSHIFT AS EXPECTED FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, IN ORDER TO GAIN SPEED, I HAD TO PRESS THE ACCELERATOR UNTIL THE ENGINE REACHED 3K RPM, AND EVEN THEN THE TRANSMISSION NOISE CONTINUED. IT IS NOT A CONTINUOS OCCURANCE, IT IS DOING IT EVERY FOUR TO FIVE DAYS. I TOOK THE VAN TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE VAN AND SERVICE INSPECTED THE VEHICLE THROUGH A COMPUTER, WHICH DETECTED NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VAN, ALTHOUGH THE SERVICE MANAGER HAD NOTICED THE PROBLEM. IN THE FIRST INSTANCE I WAS GIVEN THE VAN BACK WITHOUT ANYTHING DONE TO IT, EXCEPT FOR A TRANSMISSION FLUID FLUSH. FIVE DAYS LATTER, ON APRIL 17, 2000 THE NOISE AND TRAIN PROBLEM SHOWED UP AGAIN, THIS TIME MORE SERIOUS. I TOOK THE VAN TO ANOTHER DEALER, AND THEY PERFORMED A COMPUTER TEST THAT AGAIN SHOWED NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER THE NEW SERVICE ADVISER DID NOTICE THE PROBLEM WHEN HE TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE. HONDA WAS CONTACTED AND THE COMPANY ADVICED A COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION. BEING SUCH A POPULAR MODEL THE NEEDED TRANSMISSION IS NOT AVAILABLE AND ACCORDING TO HONDA IT WILL TAKE UP TO 30 DAYS TO GET A REPLACEMENT , HOPEFULLY NEW. ANOTHER AREA OF CONCERN IS THE BRAKE PEDAL, ONE CAN HEAR THE BOOSTER WHEN PRESSING THE PEDAL AND AT TIMES THE BRAKES DO NOT ENGAGE INMEDIATELLY. SO FAR SERVICE HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM SINCE THE TRANSMISSION MATTER IS OF MORE IMPORTANCE. I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO INFORM YOUR AGENCY OF THE PROBLEMS I HAVE ENCOUNTER. SINCERELY, RENE RODRIGUEZ
