    Rear hatch on our Odyssey EX-L started giving a "Power Tailgate Problem", and it would not open at all except by mechanically releasing the hatch from the emergency access panel. I replaced the rear hatch control module and the hatch could now again be opened from the outside as normal, but the power tailgate still did not function up and down, and requires manual lifting open and pushing closed. Upon inspection, the removed/malfunctioning control module appears to have failed due to water infiltration, meaning water has entered the inside of the vehicle and then shorted electrical components, potentially creating a fire hazard.

    The sliding doors do not work properly when the windows are down. When the windows are up and you open the door you hear a clicking noise locking the door in place. If the windows are down when opening the doors they do not “click” and the door can slide closed. This is a bigger issue when parked on a hill or slight decline as the door can slam shut on small kids. If the windows are down when opening the door you need to use one arm or your body to keep the door open while you buckle kids up. Or just make sure windows are up.

    GOODMORNING, I bought my car honda Odyssey 2018 model, on August 20th, 2018, from Honda of Clearlake, in League City, TX, the day they opened new location, this car has been giving us trouble since then. when under warranty the sunroof motor became faulty. I agree that they repaired it but took more than a week to get repaired. The car has less than 30000 miles now, last year November when I was driving car started showing up multiple warning lights, and tail gate not closing and locking and took the car dealer service center and without proper multi point inspection they ruled out its poor battery and changed it. Within a week again the same problem started appearing, took the car to dealer service center and took almost more than week to do inspection and stated that, there is a faulty weld and leak on back tail gate hinges in car and water is seeping into electrical system which is on driver side rear in between plastic trim and main body. this caused a short circuit and multiple warning lights turning on. electrical system and carpets were damaged, and they recommended to change whole harness and electrical components which will be more than $6000.00 After a week they stated that it has a faulty caulk on roof were water seeping through, Honda of clear lake service advisor [XXX] agreed that he have come across multiple cars (3 or 4) in same dealer ship with same problems. nobody knows how many dealers service centers had same problem. This is clearly manufacturing defect and Honda corporate don't want to make this issue a recall. they agreed to replace components, but we have to pay the labor which we agreed, but it's been more than a month which they can't repair and give back our car. now I think this leak issue and the issue, I mentioned earlier (faulty sunroof motor) is somehow related. I would request you to probe an enquiry into this issue which, can be an electrical and fire hazard and rule out to be a recall from Honda side. Thanking you INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

  8. Structure, Jun 4, 2022

    Driver and Passenger Sliding Doors have issues closing sometimes. It would close ranging from 70% to 90% of the way, and then slide back open. This happens occasionally enough to not have confidence in the doors consistently closing. We made sure there were no obstructions to the door, as well as nothing preventing the sliding rail roller from completing full movement. The family would have to attempt to shut it several failed attempts, sometimes up to as much as 10 x times, until it closes. This happens randomly to both driver and passenger sliding doors. This happens every thousand miles or so, and has happened since owning the vehicle. Recall was previously performed on the sliding doors for a seperate issue, but this issue still persist, and am pretty much sure it will continue to happen through the life of the van.

    After leasing our car for less than 1 year - the power liftgate malfunctioned (which coincidentally there had been a recall in the past on our honda odyssey 2009 for appears to be the exact same issue.) It seems to be exactly the same thing happening again with the 2018 model we have now. So that the trunk won't open by itself. So for the past few years we had too manually lift the trunk and it's extremely heavy to lift and slow and can bang you in the head because it does not lift very high. If this wasn't bad enough a month ago the electrical power/fuse to even accomplish what I just explained electrically shorted for no reasonable explanation. So that my husband has to quite literally climb through the two rows of seats take the plastic off permanently on the manual/nonelectric trunk release from the inside of the car in order to get our trunk door to open at all. The outside of the car electrical button has no electricity running in it at all. This is terrible for a family of 5 children. There haven't been any recalls on this and I'm sure it'll be quite expensive to replace. Please look into this issue for us please. Thank you kindly. Please see below the recall in 2009 that should also be for the 2018 model as well.

When I plug the pinch sensor back in the motor works to close for a little while but will eventually stop closing soon after. I have repeated this step multiple times and get the same results.

    METAL BAR ON THE SIDE SLIDE BACK CAUSING CAN'T CLOSE TAIL GATE OR HARD TO OPEN. HONDA DOESN'T KNOW WHAT CAUSE IT. I AM NOT SURE WHETHER IT HAS TO DO WITH SLIDING DOOR RECALL THAT IT NOT LATCH (WHICH ALREADY FIXED) OR SLIDE DOOR PUSH THIS SIDE METAL BAR BACK WHEN OPEN. HONDA TECH SAID THEY SAW IT IN MORE THAN 5 VEHICLES, IT CATCHED IT BEFORE 35K, HONDA WILL COVER UNDER WARRANTY. BUT MY CAR IS OVER 35K SO IT NOT COVER EVEN UNDER EXTEND WARRANTY. IT COSTS $140 TO REPLACE. I AM MORE CONCERN FOR MY KIDS SAFETY, IF THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSE IT. IT HAPPENED AFTER I COME IN FOR RECALL OF POWER REPLACEMENT IN THE BACK.

    THE CAR HAS 27,000 MILES ON IT. THE ENGINE MOUNT IS BEING REPLACED DUE TO IT BEING BAD, THE RADIO IS VERY DELAYED AND CRASHES AND THE SLIDING DOOR KEEPS STICKING AND I HAVE TO FORCE IT CLOSED.

    THE ELECTRICAL SLIDING DOOR IS OPENING ON ITS OWN AT NIGHT. I WAS NOT SURE IF THIS WAS RECALLED ON THIS VEHICLE. I COULD NOT FIND IT. WE ALSO HAD A 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY THAT THE SLIDERS HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND WAS RECALLED. I BELIEVE THIS IS RECALLED FOR DOORS OPENING WHILE DRIVING. IT HAD HAPPENED PREVIOUSLY BEFORE HAPPENING LAST NIGHT.

    WE HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH OUR DRIVER SIDE DOOR SINCE IT WAS 6 MONTHS OLD THEY HAVE FIXED IT TWICE NOW INCLUDING THE RECALL A FEW MONTHS AGO, AND IT IS BACK TO NOT CLOSING. THE FIRST TIME THEY FIXED IT WHEN WE WERE WAITING ON PARTS THE DOOR GOT TOTALLY SUCK CLOSED AND COULD NOT BE OPENED ANY WAY. THIS IS BECOMING A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE 10 PLUS VIDEOS FROM OVER THE LAST 18 MONTHS WHERE THE DOOR REFUSED TO CLOSE AND BOUNCE BACK OPEN MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE TO SWITCH THE DOOR TO MANUAL TO GET IT TO CLOSE, WE ALSO GET A ANTI THEFT ERROR AT LEAST 1 TIME A WEEK AND HONDA HAS NO IDEA ON THAT ERROR EITHER. ALL MY PHOTOS AND VIDEOS ARE TOO BIG TO ATTACH.

    WHEN AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR OPEN/CLOSE IS ENABLED THE DOOR WILL OPEN, BUT WILL NOT CLOSE. WHEN THE DOORS ARE PLACED IN MANUAL MODE, THE DOOR PANEL COMES LOOSE FROM THE FORCE OF THE DOOR CLOSING MAKING IT SO THE DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED BECAUSE THE LOOSE DOOR PANEL EXTENDS OUT JUST FAR ENOUGH TO WEDGE ITSELF LIKE A DOOR STOP.
