THE DEALER TOLD ME IT'S NORMAL FOR THE EX LIFTGATE TO OPEN ONLY 5FT 10IN OR SO. I COMPLAINED TO HONDA CORPORATE AFTER I, AGAIN, HIT MY HEAD (WITH SCARS AND PHOTOS TO PROVE IT). HONDA CALLED ME AND SAID THAT IT IS NORMAL. I OWNED SEVERAL CARS BEFORE, HONDA AND OTHER BRANDS, AND NEVER EVER HAD AN ISSUE HURTING MY HEAD ON THE LIFTGATE. I AM 6FT 1IN. THIS ISSUE IS AN INNJURY HAZARD. HONDA NEEDS TO ADMIT TO THIS AS EITHER AN ENGINEERING OR DESIGN OVERSIGHT, OR A BAD DECISION, WITH THE NON-POWER EX TRIM LIFTGATE. THE POWER LIFTGATE TRIMS (MORE EXPENSIVE) DO OPEN HIGHER THAN 6 FT, SO CLEARLY IT IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. I ALSO CHECKED THE 2021 ODYSSEY MODELS TODAY AT THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP - HONDA DID NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE: THE EX NON-POWER LIFTGATE STILL OPENS AT A SIMILAR 5'10'' WHILE THE MORE EXPENSIVE EX-L POWER LIFTGATE OPENS BEYOND 6'3''.

THE VEHICLE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM CRASHED EVEN AFTER THE SAFETY RECALL. THIS MADE THE SPEEDOMETER GO OUT FOR A SHORT TIME, AND COMPLETELY DISABLE THE RADIO, REAR CAMERA, RES, AND MOST USER CONTROLS. THE SYSTEM ADDITIONALLY STAYED ON AFTER THE CAR WAS POWERED OFF, AND WOULD ONLY TURN OFF BY PULLING THE FUSE!
Electrical system, Oct 10, 2020, crash
WHEN BACKING OUT OF THE GARAGE, THE PICTURE FROM THE BACKUP CAMERA FROZE AND WENT BLANK. THIS HAS CAUSED A LIGHT ACCIDENT WITH BUMPER DAMAGE. BASED ON THE ACTIVE RECALLS, THIS ACCIDENT MAY HAVE HAPPENED TO TO A KNOWN DEFECT.
Electrical system, Service brakes, Oct 10, 2020
BRAKES: SIGNIFICANT VIBRATION AT 20K MILES. ENTIRE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN BRAKING FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON A STEEP DECLINE. ELECTRICAL: INFOTAINMENT UNIT SHOWS NO AUDIO AVAILABLE AT RANDOM TIMES. TICKING OR "SLEET HITTING THE WINDOW" SOUND FROM DASH SPEAKERS. THIS IS VERY INTERMITTENT AND CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. SEEMS TO COME AND GO.

THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM STARTED GOING BAD AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE WITHIN 2 WEEKS. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION THE RADIO WENT OUT WITH A STATIC SOUND AND COMPLETE SYSTEM BLACKED OUT WITH "NETWORK COMMUNICATION ERROR" AND RESTARTED WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION AND THIS STARTED REPEATING ON THE DRIVE.I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM BY REROUTING THE ELECTRICAL HARNESS. IT WORKED GOOD FOR ANOTHER TWO DAYS IT STARTED GETTING THE SAME ERROR MESSAGES AND THE WHOLE INFO SCREEN WENT OUT FOR MINUTES AT A TIME.I HEAR STATIC SOUNDS AND GET MESSAGES SAYING RADIO OUT AND NETWORK PROBLEMS.HONDA MENTIONED IT HAD FIXED THE ERROR AS PART OF THE RECALLS RELEASED RECENTLY AND HAD THE RECALLS DONE AND THE ISSUE BECOME MORE FREQUENT AND WORSE, THE SYSTEM GETS RESTARTED EVERY FEW MINS. AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS TO THE DEALER I DO NOT HAVE ANY SUCCESS. A CLEAR SIGN THAT HONDA HAS NO CLUE HOW TO PROPERLY AND PERMANENTLY REPAIR THE SYSTEM.
Electronic stability control (ESC), Sep 9, 2020
WE STARTED TAKING OUR 2019 HONDA ODYSSEY TO THE DEALERSHIP IN NOV 2019 ON RADIO/SPEAKER ISSUES. THE SAME PROBLEMS STILL PERSIST AFTER A HANDFUL OF ATTEMPTS AT FIXING WITH NEWER PARTS. THIS IS BECOMING VERY FRUSTRATING AS A CONSUMER, ESPECIALLY AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AT A SOLUTION. WE HAVE OWNED MULTIPLE NEW HONDA'S, AND QUITE A FEW USED ONES. WE HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS OF IT GOING OFF AND ON WHILE DRIVING, SITTING STILL, HITTING A BUMP ETC. NOW IT'S TO THE POINT WHERE IT WON'T EVEN COME ON AT ALL WHEN YOU START THE VEHICLE.

MY NEW 2019 HONDA ODYSSEY HAS A VERY DISTINCTIVE ELECTRICAL STATIC/CRACKLING/HISSING NOISE COMING FROM DASHBOARD WHEN DRIVING OR IDLING THAT DOESN'T SOUND NORMAL BUT VERY CONCERNING. WILL TAKE TO DEALER BUT DON'T EXPECT MUCH SINCE I'VE READ AND RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITHOUT ANY ACTIONS FROM DEALERSHIPS. DOES NHTSA HAVE ANY ADVICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF THIS ISSUE?
