2014 HONDA ODYSSEY Complaints

WE HAVE HAD ONGOING ISSUES, BEGINNING AT ABOUT 30,000 MILES WITH A NOTICEABLE JUDDER IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS APPROXIMATELY 117,000 MILES AND CONTINUES TO DEVELOP THIS PROBLEM ON AVERAGE ABOUT 10,000 MILES AFTER TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE. THIS COINCIDES WITH NHTSA REFERENCE #10084801. AS OF YET, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY RESOLUTION TO THE TSB, AND I AM GROWING FRUSTRATED BY THE SUGGESTED "SOLUTION" OF TRIPLE CHANGING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID EVERY TIME THE SYMPTOMS SURFACE EVERY 10-15,000 MILES.

NHTSA RECALL NUMBER17V-725 HAS BEEN OPEN SINCE NOVEMBER, 17 2017 WITH NO RESOLUTION. THAT IS PRETTY UNACCEPTABLE AND NOW I RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER FOR A 2ND RECALL NHTSA RECALL NUMBER18V-170 DATED MAR 13, 2018. IS THIS EVER GOING TO BE FIXED? MY CHILDREN RIDE BACK THERE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED SEVERELY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 36,858.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BLUETOOTH FAILED TO OPERATE PROPERLY IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS IPHONE 6 MOBILE PHONE WOULD NO LONGER STAY CONNECTED WITH THE BLUETOOTH SYSTEM IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (MILLENNIUM HONDA, 286 N FRANKLIN ST, HEMPSTEAD, NY 11550) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE IPHONE 6 WAS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE HONDA BLUETOOTH SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. IT CONSTANTLY RE-OPENS AFTER PRESSING THE CLOSE BUTTON OR USING THE HANDLE AND MUST BE FORCED CLOSED MANUALLY FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE WITH TIME. WE TRY TO NOT USE THAT DOOR WHICH IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THAT IS THE DOOR CLOSEST TO ME FOR MY CHILDREN TO USE. AND THE OTHER DAY WHEN MY DAUGHTER ACCIDENTALLY FORGOT AND USED THAT DOOR, I SHUT IT AND WE WENT ON TO OUR ERRANDS, WHEN WE RETURNED TO THE VAN THE DOOR WAS WIDE OPEN, OBVIOUSLY IT AUTOMATICALLY OPENED AS WE LEFT. IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATE AND THEY HAVE REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING AS IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. AT 4 YEARS OLD THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. MY LAST HONDA ODDESSEY WAS A 2009, IT DID THE SAME THING, AAA HAD TO COME ONE DAY WHILE I WAS STUCK AT THE GYM AND COULD NOT GET IT TO CLOSE. THEY HAD TO CUT THE WIRES ON THE DOOR TO CLOSE IT. NOW THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE, I HAVE DONE A LITTLE RESEARCH ONLINE AND SEEN THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE HANDLED BY A RECALL.

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT OR FROM A SITUATION SUCH AS SLOWED TRAFFIC IN A STOP AND GO SETTING, VEHICLE REGULARLY LURCHES AND TRANSMISSION HESITATES BEFORE LOCKING INTO CORRECT GEAR AND SUDDENLY ACCELERATING FORWARD. IT SEEMS AS IF THE COMPUTER IS SEARCHING FOR CORRECT GEAR, BUT HESITATES WAY TOO LONG TO LOCK IN AS ENGINE SPEEDS HAVE ALREADY INCREASED. THIS HAPPENS MOST OFTEN AFTER ENGINE HAS WARMED FULLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY VEERED TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (HONDA NORTH, 665 EVANS CITY RD, BUTLER, PA), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS INTENDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,600. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

MY AUTO DOORS OFTEN MALFUNCTION WHERE THER DON'T RESPOND TO UNLOCKING OR OPENING. I HAVE TO PHYSICALLY FORCE THE LOCK UP WHILE PULLING THE HANDLE TO OPEN IT WHEN IT HAS.I HAVE SEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND THERE IS NO RECALL BUT THERE ARE PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN IF MY VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A WRECK AND WE CAN'T GET THE DOORS OPEN. I HAVE VIDEO OF THIS.

WE CAME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT AND AS WE STARTED MOVING WHEN LIGHT WAS GREEN IN SLOW SPEED SOMETHING MADE A BIG CLUNK AND EACH TIME WE CAME TO A STOP AND PRESSED ON GAS PEDAL TO PROCEED THEN CLUNK AND JERK BECAME LOUDER AND MORE INTENSE. WE PULLED OVER TURNED VAN OFF STARTED IT AGAIN AND IT QUIT. WE HAVE IT IN THE HONDA DEALER NOW AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING. THEY DID ADD TRANSMISSION FLUID. KEEPING OVER NIGHT PER OUR CHOIC OUT OF TWO (OR PICK UP AND TAKE HOME), TO SEE IF IT DOES SAME THING IN THE MORNING. IT'S VERY SCARY WE DON'T REALLY TRUST IT ON TRIPS. SO DISAPPOINTED. PLEASE HELP US! THERE IS ON YOUTUBE THE VERY SAME THING HAPPENING TO OURS IN SAME MAKE AND YEAR VAN. HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/4D2LJTBUAKS. SEEMS AS THOUGH WHEN IT GOES TO SHIFT INTO SECOND THATS WHEN IT CLUNK AND JERKS.
