Seats, mid/rear assemblyMar 13, 2018
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Honda Odyssey vehicles. The second row outboard seats have a lever to fold the seatback and slide the seat forward to access the third row seats. Due to a manufacturing error, if the walk-in release lever is used to fold a fully reclined left outboard seatback forward, the seatback may stay in the unlocked position (free-folding) or unexpectedly unlock without engaging the walk-in or recliner lever.
An unlocked second row left outboard seatback increases the risk of injury to the seat occupant during a crash.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will confirm proper operation of the second row left outboard seatback, and install a support bracket to the seat recliner. If the seatback cannot lock, dealers will replace the seatback frame assembly. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began May 7, 2018. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is X0R.

Service brakes, Jun 2, 2017
CAR HAS LOW MILEAGE OF 12,800 MILES AND THERE IS VIBRATION WHEN BRAKING. THIS IS NOT NORMAL AND I HAD THIS ISSUE ON MY LAST ODYSSEY. THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT MORE COMPLAINTS OF VIBRATIONS WHEN BRAKING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. HONDA RECALLED CARS IN THE PAST FOR THIS. IT SEEMS THE DEALERS CANNOT EVEN FIGURE IT OUT BUT SAY TO REPLACE THE ROTORS WHICH MAKES NO SENSE GIVEN HOW LOW MILEAGE THE CAR HAS.
Wheels, May 29, 2017
THIS VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 17000 MILES, LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD. A FRONT WHEEL STUD WAS BROKEN DUE TO HEAVY RUST. THREADS WERE STRIPED AND WHEEL NUT IS LOST DUE TO THAT. THIS VEHICLE WAS KEPT IN TEXAS MOST OF TIME. REGULAR MAINTAINED. NO SALT CORROSION.

ON FRIDAY, MAY 19, 2017 WE BROUGHT OUR VAN INTO MAITA HONDA FOR AN OIL CHANGE, A RECALL NOTICE, AND FOR THE BLEMISHES ON THE VAN TO BE REMOVED. ON MONDAY, MAY 22, 2017 WE NOTICED THAT THE VAN WAS LEAKING GAS; WE COULD SMELL THE GAS AND SEE THE PUDDLE IT LEFT. ON TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 23, 2017 WE BROUGHT THE VAN IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE IS A CRACK IN THE GAS TANK AND THAT IT HAD BEEN BANGED UP PRETTY GOOD, PROBABLY WITH SOMETHING ON THE ROAD. THEY INDICATED THAT THE DAMAGE WAS NOT CAUSED BY THEIR CAR LIFTS. THEY SAID THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND IT WOULD COST APPROXIMATELY $1,400; THAT WE WOULD NEED TO SUBMIT A CLAIM TO OUR INSURANCE COMPANY. THEY SAID THEY WOULD TAKE PICTURES AND WRITE AN ESTIMATE AND PROVIDE US WITH THEM. I BELIEVE THAT THIS DAMAGE OCCURRED WHILE MAITA HONDA HAD OUR VAN FOR SERVICE ON MAY 19, 2017. THEREFORE, I EXPECT MAITA HONDA TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK WITH A NEW ONE AT THEIR EXPENSE. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THAT THIS DAMAGE WAS THE RESULT OF A ROAD HAZARD; ACCORDING TO THEM, SOMETHING MUST HAVE HIT OUR PLASTIC GAS TANK. THIS DAMAGE OCCURRED WHILE IN THE DEALERSHIPS POSSESSION. AT THIS TIME, I DO NOT HAVE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS TO PROVIDE AS THE VAN IS STILL AT THE SHOP/DEALERSHIP.

HONDA IS USING SOY PRODUCT ON WIRING AND IT ATTRACTS SQUIREELS TO EAT MY WIRES. THE RODENTS ATE THE WIRES THREE TIMES SO FAR. WHILE DRIVING WITH CHILDREN IN CAR, MY BREAKS DID NOT WORK PROPERLY. I ALSO HAD NO WINDSHIELD WIPERS OR LIGHTS. IT WAS RAINING. IT WAS SO SCARY. I HAVE VIDEO OF THE SQUIRRELS UNDERNEATH THE HOOD
Engine, Aug 7, 2016
WHEN I PULLED UP TO A PARKING SPOT AND TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDDLE AND PLACED IT ON THE BREAK THE ENGINE STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND ENGINE RPM'S CLIMBED ABOUT 1000 RPM'S. THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION WAS STILL IN DRIVE (D). I HAD TO FORCE THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK (P) AND PUSH THE START/STOP BUTTON TO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. THIS INCIDENT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO REAR END A PARKED CAR.

HAD MY VEHICLE DROVE ON FREEWAY FOR AN HOUR AND WHEN PULLING ON TO A SHOPPING CENTER, THERE WAS A STOP AND GO. AT THAT POINT THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION STARTING JERKING AND SHAKING. THERE WAS SOUND FROM ENGINE/TRANMISSION LIKE SOME METAL CRUSHING OR BREAKING. STOPPED THE VEHICLE FOR A WHILE AND THE ISSUE DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. DEALER NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THIS ISSUE AND SO NO FIX.

HEADREST NOT ADJUSTABLE FORWARD TO BACK. WHEN INSTALLED PROPERLY, FORCES THE NECK FORWARD SO A CLEAR SAFE DRIVING POSITION CAN'T BE ACHIEVED. ONLY WAY TO DRIVE SAFELY IS TO REMOVE THE HEADREST WHICH LEAVES NO NECK SUPPORT IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. NO ABILITY TO DECREASE THE FORWARD ANGLE OF THE HEADREST, NO REPLACEMENT AVAILABLE. TO STRAIGHTEN NECK, SEAT MUST BE RECLINED TO THE POINT WHERE THE SEAT DOESN'T MAKE CONTACT WITH YOUR BACK CAUSING ADDITIONAL SAFETY ISSUES.

DRIVERS SIDE SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE BY PUSHING THE "OPEN/CLOSE" BUTTONS. TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES. UPON ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE DOOR MANUALLY, THE ENTIRE DOOR FELL OFF THE VAN.

AS I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY APREACHING A STOP SIGN, I PLACED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, WAS TOTALLY OFF THE GAS PEDAL, AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR. THIS WAS SCARY, LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE I FROM THE OF ME AND I HADN'T YET HIT THE STOP SIGN MARK, I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKE MANY TIMES, SWIFTLY,IT FINALLY CAME BACK UP BEFORE REACHING THE STOP SIGN. TWO DAYS BEFORE THIS I DROVE OFF FROM HOME AND THE VAN LOST POWER AND WAS BUCKING AS IF THE FUEL PUMP WAS BLOCKED. THESE VANS NEED TO BE CHECKED THOROUGHLY, HONDA NEEDS TO PAY MORE ATTENTION TO THEIR CUSTOMERS COMPLAINTS. I HAVE CHILDREN AND I PRAY THIS VAN DOESN'T LEAD ME IN TO AN ACCIDENT OR FATALITY.

WAS DRIVING ~70MPH ON FREEWAY NEAR ORLANDO, FL. HEARD A STRANGE LOUD NOISE AND GLASS BREAKING, THEN LOT OF ROAD NOISE. UPON STOPPING TO CHECK WHAT HAPPENED, REALIZED SUNROOF GLASS HAD SHATTERED AND HAD A LARGE HOLE IN IT - IT APPEARED TO BE BOWED UP/OUTWARD. LUCKILY THE INNER COVER WAS CLOSED SO NO GLASS ENTERED THE VEHICLE. DID NOT HEAR ANY IMPACT NOISE WHEN IT HAPPENED AND THERE ARE NO VISIBLE SCRATCHES, DENTS OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF ANY IMPACT AROUND SUNROOF WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A FAULT OF SOME KIND [IN GLASS OR OTHERWISE]. THE SUNROOF SITS ALMOST FLAT AND THE PROBABILITY OF IT BEING STRUCK BY ANYTHING MUST BE EXTREMELY SMALL. IF BY SOME MIRACLE IT IS ACTUALLY STRUCK BY SOMETHING, WOULD HAVE TO BE ONLY A GLANCING IMPACT AND I BELIEVE SHOULD NOT SHATTER AND DISINTEGRATE LIKE IT DID. SEEING AS THERE ARE ALREADY OTHER 3 REPORTS OF SIMILAR OCCURRENCES ALREADY REGISTERED WITH NHTSA SPECIFICALLY FOR 2015 MODEL, PLUS A COUPLE OF OTHER REPORTS MENTIONED IN FORUMS ONLINE, I THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT AS A CONSEQUENCE. MY CONCERN IS HONDA DEALER IMMEDIATELY DECIDED IT WAS EXTERNAL ISSUE AND SHOULD BE INSURANCE CLAIM. IF THIS IS STANDARD PRACTICE, IT COULD MEAN OTHER OCCURRENCES OF THIS HAPPENING MIGHT NOT BE GETTING REPORTED TO AMERICAN HONDA AND SO THEY ARE UNAWARE OF A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS PROBLEM.

DURING RAIN AT NIGHT, VERY LITTLE OF THE LOW BEAMS REACH THE ROAD WAY. THE PATTERN OF LIGHT FROM THE PROJECTOR TYPE LOW BEAM IS SUCH THAT THERE IS A BRIGHT LINE ABOUT 2 - 3 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND AT 25 FEET. ABOVE THAT IT SHARPLY FADES TO ALMOST NOTHING. BELOW THAT LINE, IT GRADUALLY FADES TO DARKNESS AT GROUND LEVEL. AT THE FACTORY SETTING, THERE COULD BE MORE LIGHT HIGHER UP. THE REAL ISSUE IS THAT VERY LITTLE LIGHT GETS TO THE ROAD. DURING RAIN, ROADWAY CENTER AND SIDE LINES ARE NOT VISIBLE, HOWEVER, REFLECTIVE MATERIAL ABOUT 1 FOOT OFF THE GROUND IS INCREDIBLY BRIGHT. OI HAVE TAKEN THE VAN TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO SOLUTION. IT IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS INSUFFICIENT LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE ROADWAY LANE LINES.
