MY COMPLAINT IS THIS: IF SO MANY OTHER '02-'04 ODYSSEY OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT HONDA DID NOT PROPERLY CORRECT THEIR EARLIER MISTAKE, AND THEY SHOULD PONY UP TO FIX THE TRANSMISSIONS, OR REIMBURSE OWNERS WHO ALREADY HAD THE WORK PERFORMED. MY REQUEST: NHTSA PLACE PRESSURE ON AMERICAN HONDA TO DO THE RIGHT THING, AND OWN UP MONETARILY OR SERVICE-WISE TO MYSELF AND THE THOUSANDS OF OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD/ARE HAVING/WILL HAVE THESE ISSUES. *JS

2003 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. *MW THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR THE INTERLOCK RECALL, THE PROBLEM WOULD BE RESOLVED. HOWEVER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. ALSO, THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. *JB

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON FOR A FEW SECONDS WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED LIMIT. THEN VEHICLE SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING OR TOOK A FEW SECONDS TO ENGAGE FROM A STARTING MOVEMENT FORWARD LEAVING A STOP LIGHT. AT IDLE THE TACHOMETER STARTED TO REV BETWEEN 1100-2000 RPMS AT STANDING IDLE IN PARK.THE SLIDING DOORS GET JAMMED STUCK WHEN ATTEMPTING TO OPEN FROM THE DASH CONTROLS. I KNOW THESE COULD CAUSE AND ACCIDENT AND NOT BE ABLE TO GET NY CHILDREN OUT OF THE VEHICLE VIA THE SLIDING POWER SIDE DOORS.VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED ON 12-12-2014. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT. I WENT TO CHANGE MY HEADLIGHTS FROM HIGH BEAMS TO LOW BEAMS. ALL THE LIGHTS WENT OFF. I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED. THE LEVER ON THE STEERING WHEEL WAS STUCK. I PUSHED IT FORWARD FORCEFULLY AND THE LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. I COULD NOT GET ISSUES TO REPEAT ITSELF. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGED AT 65 MPH AND I HAD TO KEEP CYCLING THE GAS PEDAL UNTIL THE TRANS CAUGHT ON AT 40 MPH AND THIS WENT ON UNTIL I BROUGHT IT HOME. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY SAID I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. *TR

AT LOWER SPEEDS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION GOES INTO NEUTRAL. THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT REENGAGE UNLESS YOU PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND BACK INTO DRIVE. UNFORTUNATELY THIS HAPPENS DURING PERIODS FROM COMPLETELY STOPPED THRU 2ND GEAR. ONCE PAST 2ND GEAR SHIFTING PATTERNS ARE ALWAYS NORMAL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR, YET THE TRANSMISSION STILL CONTINUES TO OPERATE, (IE..NOT COMPLETELY FAILED YET) I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON MY PARTICULAR MODEL (RECALL# 12V-573) HOWEVER MY DEALER SAYS THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL. I FEEL SINCE THIS IS A DAILY DRIVER, THAT THE MALFUNCTION OF TRANSMISSION WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT HAPPENS DURING INITIAL ACCELERATION. I BELIEVE THAT IF THIS WAS NOT A DEFECT, THEN THE TRANSMISSION WOULD HAVE COMPLETELY FAILED LONG AGO. I MERELY THINK HONDA SHOULD MAKE CORRECTIONS AS STATED IN THEIR RECALL NOTICES. *TR

I AM AN ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 03 ODYSSEY. PERFECT MAINTENANCE RECORD. CAREFULLY DRIVING AND NEVER TOW ANYTHING. TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP AND LOCK UP AROUND 93K MILES WITHOUT WARNING. CRASH ALMOST OCCURRED ON A BUSY HIGHWAY TWICE. HAVE TWO DEALER CHECKED UP AND BOTH SAID NEED A REPLACEMENT. CALL HONDA AND GOT VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE. HONDA DENIED RESPONSIBILITY, BUT OFFERED 25% REPLACEMENT COST. 02-04 ODYSSEY HAD TRANSMISSION RECALL IN 04. MY VAN WAS OVER 20K AND ONLY GOT AN OIL INJET KITS INSTALLED. I BELIEVED THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION HAS ALREADY BEEN DAMAGED AT THAT TIME. THE RECALL IS A SCAM FROM HONDA TO CHEAT, TO DELAY THE PROBLEM AND TO SAVE COST. EVERYONE KNOWS AN OIL INJET KITS COSTS A FRACTION OF A NEW TRANSMISSION. THIS IS THE SAME KIND OF SCAM AS ANOTHER JAPANESE PRODUCT, TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL. MY VAN ALSO EQUIPPED WITH TAKATA FAULTY AIRBAGS. I REQUESTED AIRBAG REPLACEMENT THROUGH A HONDA DEALER TWO MONTHS AGO AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE ORDERED, BUT HAVE TO WAIT. DRIVING A HONDA PRODUCT EVERYDAY TO SENT MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL WITH FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND AIRBAGS, I HAVE HIGHER RISK TO BE KILLED OR INJURED BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION COULD FAIL AND RESULT IN CLASH, AND THE AIRBAG COULD DEPLOY AND KILL OR INJURED MYSELF AND DAUGHTER. WHAT A NIGHTMARE! I JUST GOT MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED WITH $3K OUT OF MY POCKETS. I SENT THE INVOICE TO HONDA CEO 3 TIMES TO REQUEST FULL IMBURSEMENT AND WAS DENIED.HONDA HAS THE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ITS FAULTY PRODUCTS. I REQUEST A FULL INVESTIGATION ON HONDA'S HANDLING ON ITS RECALLS. *TR

MY 03 HONDA ODYSSEY IS EQUIPPED WITH BOTH A FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND FAULTY AIRBAGS MANUFACTURED BY TAKATA. I REQUESTED AIRBAG REPLACEMENT THROUGH A HONDA DEALER TWO MONTHS AGO AND WAS TOLD REPEATEDLY THEY WERE ORDERED, BUT I HAVE TO WAIT SEVERAL MORE WEEKS. AS A OWNER WHO HAS FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND AIRBAG, I HAVE A HIGHER RISK TO BE KILLED OR INJURED BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION COULD FAIL WITHOUT WARNING AND RESULT IN CLASH, AND THE AIRBAGS COULD BE DEPLOYED AND KILL OR INJURED MYSELF AND FAMILY MEMBER. WHAT A NIGHTMARE! I CALL FOR IMMEDIATELY ACTION FROM HONDA TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM. HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO WAIT? *TR

I OWNED 2003 ODYSSEY FOR YEARS (APPROX. 125,000 M NOW), LAST WEEK I DROVE ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 70 MPH BACK HOME THEN SUDDENLY WITH NO POWER, LUCKILY, THE CAR AFTER ME WAS TOO FAR TO HIT ME. I PULLED THE CAR OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND RESTART AGAIN. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I MANAGED TO DRIVE HOME IN 20~30 MPH. CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND OUT HONDA DID RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE BUT STILL CAN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. REALLY LOVE THIS VAN, STILL DEBATING HOW TO DO IT, NOT DARE TO DRIVE NOW. HONDA SHOULD TAKE THE FULL RESPONSIBILITY TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE, NO MATTER WHO OWNS THE VAN. NOT JUST CARE ABOUT THE COMPANY?S PROFITS AND IGNORE THE TRAGEDY WILL BE HAPPENED ANYTIME. AS A CAR MANUFACTURER AND HUMANITY, HONDA SHOULD KNOW LIVE IS PRICELESS. *TR

I CONTACTED ONE HONDA DEALER FOR AIR BAG REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER REPLACED THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE INFLATER AND ORDERED THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE INFLATER FOR MY 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY EX-L. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALER ABOUT THE STATUS OF THE ORDER FOR FRONT PASSENGER SIDE INFLATER, DEALER RESPONDED "DO NOT UNDERSTAND MY QUESTION". I TRIED TO CONTACT WWW.HONDA.COM. I COULD NOT LOCATE ANY EMAIL CONTACT. I AM HARD-OF-HEARING AND I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT TWITTER. I DO NOT WANT TO TOUCH TWITTER. WILL YOU PLEASE HELP ME. *TR

DEAR SIR/MADAM: I AM AN ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY, AND ONE OF MANY VICTIMS OF HONDA TRANSMISSION FAULTY TRANSMISSION. A TRANSMISSION RECALL WAS PERFORMED AT 20, 398 MILES IN JULY 2004. IN THAT RECALL, HONDA STATED THAT CERTAIN OPERATING CONDITIONS CAN RESULT IN HEAT BUILD-UP BETWEEN THE COUNTER SHAFT AND SECONDARY SHAFT SECOND GEARS. THAT COULD LEAD TO GEAR TOOTH CHIPPING OR, IN VERY RARE CASES, GEAR BREAKAGE. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE TRANSMISSION COULD LOCK UP, INCREASING THE CHANCE OF A CRASH. INSTEAD OF REPLACE THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION THAT WAS ORIGINALLY INSTALLED ON MY ODYSSEY, A HONDA DEALER INSTALLED A LINE JET KIT TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL LUBRICATION TO THE GEARS. IN JUNE 2014, MY VAN STARTED TO SHOW SIGNS OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 93,128 MILES. THE SECOND GEAR IS VERY HARD TO SHIFT AND SLIPPED EVEN LOCKED FROM TIME TO TIME. IN TWO OF THE CASES, A REAR COLLISION ALMOST OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. AFTER I CONSULTED TWO HONDA DEALERSHIPS AND WAS TOLD A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT IS NEEDED. I PAID $3,000 TO REPLACE THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION OUT OF MY OWN POCKET. HONDA DENIED THE RESPONSIBILITY, BUT ONLY OFFERED 25% FOR THE TOTAL REPLACEMENT COST OF NEARLY $6,000. I BELIEVE THAT HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND THE 2004 TRANSMISSION RECALL DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I REQUEST N.H.T.S.A. INVESTIGATE WHETHER HONDA'S 2004 RECALL IS A TEMPORARY FIX OF THE PROBLEM AND STILL PUT THE DRIVER AT RISK, AND WHETHER THE RECALL HAVE SOLVED A SAFETY PROBLEM. I AM VERY SURE THAT I AM ONE OF HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS VICTIM OF HONDA FAULTY TRANSMISSION. PLEASE START THE INVESTIGATION FOR PUBLIC SAFETY AND HEALTH CONCERNS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I CALLED THE HONDA RECALL TELEPHONE NUMBER LISTED ON THEIR WEB SITE. I HAD READ THAT 2003 HONDA ODYSSEYS MAY CONTAIN TAKADA AIR BAG INFLATORS MANUFACTURED WITH INADEQUATE MANUFACTURING CONTROL. THE CURRENT RECALL (AS STATED ON THEIR WEB SITE) IS LIMITED TO 13 U.S. STATES AND TERRITORIES THAT "CONSISTENTLY EXPERIENCE HIGH ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY". THE LIST DOES NOT INCLUDE INDIANA. THE HONDA REPRESENTATIVE SAID THERE WAS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHAT AIRBAG INFLATOR WAS INSTALLED IN MY VAN EVEN WITH THE VIN. THE REPRESENTATIVE SUGGESTED THAT I CONTACT A DEALER. I THEN CONTACTED A DEALER IN CLARKSVILLE INDIANA AND ASKED IF THEY COULD TELL ME WHAT AIRBAG INFLATOR WAS INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE BASED UPON THE VIN. THE DEALER SAID NO. HONDA & THE DEALER BOTH CONFIRMED THAT THERE IS INADEQUATE PART TRACEABILITY IN THEIR VEHICLES. WITHOUT SUCH TRACEABILITY TO THE VIN, NO RECALL THAT IS CONDUCTED COULD ENSURE THAT ALL OF THE DEFECTIVE PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. LETTING THE MANUFACTURER DETERMINE HOW A RECALL IS CONDUCTED IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PUBLIC. MANUFACTURER NEGOTIATION AND BARGAINING WITH NHTSA CONCERNING RECALLS IS ALSO AN INADEQUATE PROCESS. IT LACKS TRANSPARENCY THAT THE PUBLIC DESERVES IN MATTERS THAT ARE RELATED TO LIFE AND DEATH SAFETY ISSUES. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD ALREADY CONDUCTED AIR BAG RECALL WORK ON MANY HONDA ODYSSEY VANS IN INDIANA (10 - 20). THIS CONTRADICTS THE SCOPE OF THE CURRENT RECALL LISTED ON HONDA'S WEB SITE AND CALLS INTO QUESTION THE HONESTY OF THE ENTIRE PROCESS. THE DEALER OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. WHEN A MANUFACTURING SAFETY RELATED DEFECT AS SERIOUS AS THE HONDA ISSUE ARISES, THE PUBLIC DESERVES TO HAVE THEIR INTERESTS PLACED AHEAD OF THE PROFITS OF ANY MANUFACTURER OR DEALER. THE CONFUSION AROUND THIS ISSUE AND THE LACK OF TRANSPARENCY ALSO CASTS A SHADOW UPON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE ENTIRE REGULATORY SYSTEM. *TR

THE DEALER REPLACED THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG UNDER THE RECALL. THEY CLAIMED THAT THERE WAS NO NEED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. I NOW HAVE TWO ISSUES. SINCE THE MANUFACTURER TAKATA IS KNOWN TO HAVE LIED ABOUT DEFECTS, CAN I BE CERTAIN THAT THE REPLACEMENT THAT WAS INSTALLED IS SAFE? SINCE THERE IS A RECALL, 13V-132, NOW ON RECORD, WAS I LIED TO ABOUT THE NEED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG? THIS RECALL; SPEAKS OF PASSENGER AIR BAG PROBLEMS. WHAT CORRECTIVE ACTION IS PLANNED TO ASSURE THAT THE REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS ARE SAFE AND WHEN WILL THEY BE AVAILABLE? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL FUMES EMITTED FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL CAP WOULD NEED REPLACING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 210,000.
