Delphi Automotive Systems, LLC (Delphi) is recalling certain replacement fuel pump modules, part number FG1155-11B1, sold for use in 2005-2010 Honda Odyssey vehicles. The affected fuel pump may send an incorrect fuel reading to the fuel gauge possibly causing the vehicle to run out of fuel. The fuel gauge will always read 3/4 full to full regardless of the actual level.
A vehicle that runs out of fuel and stalls has an increased risk of a crash.
Delphi has begun notifying dealers and distributors, and will replace the fuel pump modules, free of charge. Owners may contact Delphi customer service at 1-877-411-8770. Delphi's number for this recall is GL14-004.

American Honda Motor Co., Inc. (Honda) is recalling certain 2005-2010 Honda Odyssey vehicles manufactured June 23, 2004, through September 4, 2010. In the affected vehicles, the fuel pump strainer cover may deteriorate allowing fuel to leak out.
A fuel leak increases the risk of a fire.
Parts to permanently repair the affected vehicles are not currently available. Honda will notify owners with an interim letter during May 2014. A second notice was mailed to owners October 6, 2014 when the remedy became available. Any vehicles that are currently leaking from the fuel pump cover will get a replacement, original cover. All vehicles, including those receiving the interim repair, will get an improved cover when they are available. Owners may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009. The recall numbers associated with this campaign are JD9 (inspection and/or preliminary part replacement) and JE0 (final parts replacement).

3.5L V6 ENGINE MISFIRE, PLUGS FOULING, PISTON RING REPLACEMENT AS PART OF THE CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT FOR ENGINE MISFIRE, HONDA CORP ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN TO UPDATE THE PCM SOFTWARE AND REPLACE THE AFFECTED SPARK PLUGS. THIS REMEDY DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. RECOGNIZING THE ORIGINAL REMEDY WAS NOT AFFECTIVE, HONDA CORP ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN TO EXTEND ENGINE WARRANTY TO 8 YEARS OR 125,000 MILES WHICHEVER IT COMES FIRST. FOR MY SPECIFIC CASE, THE FIRST TIME THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING IN AUG 2014 WITH 57,486 MILES (MIL LIGHT ON, ENGINE STUMBLES, LOSS OF POWER), THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SERVICED MY VEHICLE BY FOLLOWING THE SERVICE BULLETIN TO UPDATE THE PCM SOFTWARE AND REPLACE THE AFFECTED SPARK PLUGS. THE 2ND TIME THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED IN APR 2018 WHILE DRIVING WITH 112,805 MILES (MIL LIGHT ON, ROUGH IDLE, VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY WHILE DRIVING), THE HONDA DEALERSHIP CHARGED ME A FEE IN EXCESS OF $619 TO REPLACE FOUL PLUGS AND V TEC SWITCHES. THE 3RD TIME THIS ISSUE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON AUG 2018 WITH 112,805 (MIL LIGHT ON, VEHICLE VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY WHILE DRIVING, LOSS OF POWER AND STUMBLE), THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING ME OVER $1100 TO REPLACE PISTON RINGS AND AFFECTED FOUL PLUGS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN THE ENGINE IS LOSING POWER AND VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY WHILE DRIVING. THE SERVICE BULLETIN AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DOES NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM COMPLETELY AND LEAVE THE CUSTOMERS WITH A LARGE COST TO REPAIR FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE RESOLVED. A SAFETY RECALL IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED FOR THE AFFECTED VEHICLES WITH 3.5L V6 ENGINES. MANY CUSTOMERS ARE AT RISK WHILE DRIVING THEIR VEHICLES WITH LOSS OF POWER, STUMBLES, VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY, AS WELL AS MANY ANGRY CUSTOMERS ARE DEMANDING ACTION TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE COMPLETELY.

THE POWER SLIDING DOOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE FELL OFF. THE DOOR WAS STICKING AND WOULD NOT SLIDE CLOSED, SO I TURNED OFF THE POWER TO THE DOOR. WHEN I TRIED TO MANUALLY CLOSE THE DOOR, THE DOOR PULLED OFF THE TRACK. I COULD NOT GET THE DOOR BACK ON THE TRACK. I TRIED TO MANUALLY CLOSE THE DOOR, BUT BECAUSE THE DOOR HAD BEEN PULLED OFF THE TRACK, THE BRACE COMPLETELY SCRATCHED UP THE DOOR AND BENT UP THE PANEL THAT COVERS THE TRACK ON WHICH THE BRACE FOR THE DOOR SLIDES. I NEEDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE BODY SHOP TO REPLACE THE BRACE. I AM SPENDING HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF $$ BECAUSE THE DOOR FELL OFF. THERE ARE MANY POSTS ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH HONDA ODYSSEYS. THE FAULTY SLIDING MECHANISM APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT I NEED TO REPAIR A DOOR BECAUSE IT HAS WORN OUT. I'M ATTACHING A PICTURE OF THE CLOSED DOOR WITH THE BRACE STICKING OUT AND THE DAMAGE TO THE BODY FROM WHEN I HAD ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE DOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS INADVERTENTLY OPENED AND ALSO FAILED TO CLOSE AUTOMATICALLY. THE DOOR AJAR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE DRAINED THE BATTERY, CAUSING THE CONTACT TO REPLACE THE BATTERY TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO APPLE HONDA (1375 US-58, RIVERHEAD, NY 11901, 631-727-0555) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE LATCHES AND THE CENTER ROLLERS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURES WERE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 99,000.
Electrical system, Structure, May 2, 2018
THE CAR WAS OFF AND THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON WHICH WAS DRAINING THE BATTERY. DIFFERENT LIGHTS STARTED TO ILLUMINATE ON THE DASHBOARD WITH THE CAR OFF. THE VSA LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT SHOPS TO GET IT DIAGNOSED AND THEY DETERMINED THAT THE CABIN WIRE HARNESS IS CORRODED DUE TO A LEAK IN THE ROOF RUN CHANNELS AND OR WINDSHIELD. THE UNDER THE DASH FUSE BOX IS ALSO SHOWING CORROSION AND NEEDS REPLACING. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 64000 MILES AND THE REPAIR IS QUOTED AT $3465. A VERY COSTLY REPAIR WHICH SEEMS IS DUE TO FAULTY MANUFACTURING OR ASSEMBLY.

ENGINE IS BURNING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL RESULTING IN A P3497 OBD II FAULT CODE. LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT DOES NOT TURN ON, EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE BURNED OVER 2 QUARTS OF OIL. BECAME AWARE OF ISSUE WHEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON. ADDED 2 QUARTS OF OIL, THEN OBTAINED AN OIL CHANGE THE NEXT DAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THERE IS A VERY HIGH RISK OF ENGINE SEIZING. HONDA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. HONDA DID ISSUE A SERVICE BULLETIN 11-033 TO REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER AT A COST OF $125. I ONLY BECAME AWARE OF THE SERVICE BULLETIN AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET...NO NOTIFICATION FROM HONDA.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. THE DRIVER-SIDE SLIDING DOOR FELL OFF WHEN WE OPENED IT, FALLING TO THE GROUND, CAUSING EXTENSIVE BODY DAMAGE TO THE REAR PANEL. WE HAD THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR REPAIRED ALREADY BUT ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT OPENING AGAIN. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FROM HONDA. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT MANY HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME EXPERIENCE

STARTED VEHICLE IN DRIVEWAY MONDAY 3/12/17, OUTSIDE TEMP APPROXIMATELY 37* WITH RAIN. TURNED ON WIPERS, FRONT AND REAR. TURNED ON DEFROST FRONT AND REAR. IMMEDIATELY REAR HATCH WINDOW SHATTERED, GLASS ALL FELL INTO REAR COMPARTMENT BEHIND 3RD ROW SEATS. HAD NOT EVEN YET PUT VEHICLE INTO GEAR TO BACK UP. VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN MOVED AT ALL. HAD USED WIPERS PREVIOUSLY WITH NO ISSUES. THERE WAS NOTHING TO INDICATE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR GLASS BEFORE IT SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED. PHOTOS WERE TAKEN NEXT DAY AFTER HAVING PULLED VEHICLE INTO GARAGE OVERNIGHT TO KEEP FROM WATER DAMAGE.

IN FALL 2016, THE DEALERSHIP ADDRESSED A MISFIRE ENGINE READING ON MY VAN. I HAD TAKEN IT IN AT LEAST TWO OTHER TIMES BECAUSE OF SLUGGISH ACCELERATION OR VEHICLE DYING WHILE AT A STOP. IN SPRING 2017, THE VAN BECAME DISABLED AT AN INTERSECTION AND IT WAS FOUND THAT THE CAUSE WAS THE SAME MISFIRE CODE. ACCORDING TO HONDA'S NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10099308 MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION NUMBER: WE - A13-080, THIS REPAIR WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. BUT BECAUSE OF THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY'S 8YR FROM DATE OF PURCHASE TIMEFRAME, HONDA CORP. DENIED MY REPAIRS BECAUSE IT WAS THREE MONTHS OUT OF THE 8YR EXTENDED WARRANTY. I COMMUNICATED WITH HONDA BACK AND FORTH URGING THEM TO FIX THE VAN ESPECIALLY SINCE THE REPAIR HAD BEEN ADDRESS BEFORE AND IT WAS THREE MONTHS OUT OF THEIR CLASS ACTION AGREEMENT. ULTIMATELY, THEY DENIED COVERAGE OF ANY REPAIRS.

HONDA ODYSSEY OIL CONSUMPTION-I HAVE A 2009 ODYSSEY THAT CONSUMES OIL. ROUGHLY, EVERY 1,000 MILES, I AM ADDING 1 TO 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 3 TO 4 WEEKS. NO SPOTS ON THE GROUND. ENGINE IS CONSUMING OIL. HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH HONDA.

Service brakes, Nov 23, 2017
FRONT BRAKES AND ROTORS WERE CHANGED SEVERAL TIMES. LAST WITH DRILLED/SLOTTED ROTORS. VIBRATION IS LESS WITH THOSE, BUT STILL THERE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH OTHER PEOPLE AS WELL. SO SPEED LITTLE VIBRATION, HIGHER SPEED INCREASES VIBRATION. HAS BEEN GOING OVER THE YEARS, IS WORSE WHEN IN THE MOUNTAINS.
Steering, Oct 18, 2017
THE 2009 HONDA ODYSSEY HAS A KNOWN POWER STEERING FAILURE. AMERICAN HONDA KNOWS THAT IT IS A DESIGN FLAW AND HAS ONLY OFFERED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY OF 7 YRS/100,000 MILES VIA A TSB, NOT A RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY MY CAR DID NOT EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM TILL A YEAR LATER AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I HAD DIFFICULTY REVERSING MY CAR AND IT WAS HARDER TO MAKE TURNS FROM A STOP POSITION OR WHEN I WAS SLOWING DOWN. IF MY STEERING HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN DOWN, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS WITH MY KIDS IN THE VEHICLE.LUCKILY I DON'T DRIVE ON FREEWAYS A LOT, OTHERWISE HAVING TO PUT MORE EFFORT STEERING MY CAR OR HAVING IT FAIL WOULD BE BAD. WHEN I CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA, THEY REFUSED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. WITH THE PUMP FAILING, IT CREATES A UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR NOT ONLY ME, MY KIDS, AND OTHER DRIVERS WHEN I'M STRUGGLING TO STEER MY CAR. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WAS $850 WITHOUT THE GUARANTEE THAT IT WOULDN'T FAIL AGAIN SINCE IT'S A DESIGN ISSUE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER ODYSSEY OWNERS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL THAT HONDA FIXES BECAUSE IT EFFECTS NOT ONLY MY MODEL, BUT MODELS 2007 AND ON. HAVING TROUBLE STEERING A CAR IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A RECALL INSTEAD OF A TSB. SOME CARS WILL EXHIBIT THIS DANGEROUS FAILURE AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRES AND WE SHOULDN'T BE PENALIZED FOR IT IF IT DOESN'T FAIL RIGHT AWAY. IT'S NOT RIGHT THAT I WAS SOLD A CAR THAT IS UNSAFE, ESP. SINCE IT'S A FAMILY CAR AND I TRANSPORT MY KIDS EVERYDAY IN IT.

ALL WINDOWS EXCEPT THE DRIVER'S STOPPED FUNCTIONING. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS WITH ENGINE ON OR OFF. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS WHEN STATIONARY OR MOVING. TRIED THE CHILD SAFETY BUTTON, BUT STILL A PROBLEM.

VEHICLE HAD CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT GO ON (BATTERY LIGHT). BATTERY WAS NOT CHARGING AND THERE WAS A NOISE NEAR THE ALTERNATOR. NEXT DAY, LIGHT GOES OFF, BATTERY IS CHARGING NOW, NO NOISE. TWO DAYS AND 40 MILES LATER, NO OTHER LIGHTS AND NO OTHER NOISE. VEHICLE ENTERS HIGHWAY, MAKES IT ABOUT 3 MILES WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL SHUTS OFF. ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASH COME ON AND SHUT OFF. DRIVER PULLS OVER, STARTS TO SEE SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. KEEPS HOOD SHUT AND WAITS FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES TO ARRIVE ON SCENE. ENGINE GOES UP IN FLAMES, ALL SEATS ARE BURNED UP, WINDOWS BLOWN OUT, FRONT TIRES MELT. TOTAL LOSS.

FIRST THE ELECTRIC ASSIST ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR BROKE. THEN IT STARTED MAKING A GRINDING NOISE AND STICKING FREQUENTLY. FINALLY THE SLIDING DOOR FELL OFF COMPLETELY DAMAGING THE BODY OF THE VAN AND THE DOOR ITSELF. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

Air bags, May 4, 2017
WE WERE DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET, ON EASTER MORNING ON OUR WAY TO CHURCH, AT 20-30 MPH WHEN OUR PASSENGER CURTAIN-SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THERE WAS NO IMPACT. WE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING AND NO ONE HIT US. OUR FAMILY (TWO ADULTS, 5 Y.O, 3 Y.O, AND 6 WEEK OLD) WERE IN THE CAR WITH NO INJURIES. WE TOOK OUR CASE TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER, WHERE THEY RAN DIAGNOSTICS. THEY FOUND NO ISSUES AND REFERRED OUR CASE TO AMERICAN HONDA (CASE #05962968). THEIR ENGINEERS AND SPECIALISTS DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG EITHER AND WILL BE DENYING OUR CLAIM (LETTER OF REJECTION PENDING). OUR STATE FARM INSURANCE WILL NOT BE COVERING THE ISSUE EITHER (LETTER OF REJECTION PENDING) (CASE#43-1404-3H2). I BELIEVE THERE TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAGS SINCE ONLY ONE MAJOR AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND NOT THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FROM OUR DASHBOARD. I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD BE COVERING OUR REPAIRS BECAUSE NO IMPACT OCCURRED AND THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. OUR INSURANCE COMPANY HAS PICTURES AND ALL DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING A CRASH REPORT ON THE VEHICLE. I CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE THEM, BUT CAN RETRIEVE THEM IF NECESSARY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SIX TIMES FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TORQUE CONVERTER WAS REPLACED, BUT THE REPAIRS DID NOT CORRECT THE VIBRATION. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT AUTHORIZE ANY FUTURE REPAIRS ON THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED EVER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED FROM THE DEALER ON DECEMBER 30, 2016. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,223.
