CRANK SHAFT PULLEY SEPARATED FROM HUB AND CAUSED SUDDEN & TOTAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE IN MOTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. THE CONTACT HAD TO TURN THE IGNITION TO THE OFF POSITION IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES AND TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V504000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

CAR JIGGERS AND VIBRATES WHEN ECO MODE KICKS IN. CAR ALSO VIBRATES CONSTANTLY. MULTIPLE MOTOR MOUNTS HAVE BEEN DEEMED BAD AND NEEDING REPLACEMENT. MOTOR MOUNTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE ECO SHIFT AND LAST LONGER THAN THIS. *TR

PLEASE, JUST CHECK PROBLEM WITH AIR BAGS! HTTP://WWW.ARFC.ORG/COMPLAINTS/2005/HONDA/ODYSSEY/AIR_BAGS/PROBLEM.ASPX AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON AND OFF. AFTER TWO YEARS THE LIGHT ON MOST OF THE TIME AND IT WENT OFF AUTOMATICALLY FOR A WHILE THEN CAME BACK ON. I CALL TO AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR INC. THEY DON'T WANT TO CREATE A RECALL FOR THAT BECAUSE THAT WILL BE DIFFERENT COMPONENT FAIL IN THAT CASE. THEY JUST WANT TO CREATE THE RECALL FOR EACH COMPONENT BREAK DOWN. THEY NOT COVER THE REPAIR COST AND DEPEND ON WHICH COMPONENT UNDER WARRANTY THEN HONDA WILL NOT CHARGE THE PARTS. OTHERWISE WE NEED TO PAY ALL THE REPAIR. I REQUEST FOR THE RECALL FOR THE SRS LIGHT ON. BECAUSE A LOT OF THE OWNERS THINK THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT THEY THINK JUST THE LIGHT IS ON AND KEEP DRIVING. I WAS THINKING THE SAME WAY TOO. THAT'S WHY I WANT TO REQUEST THAT RECALL ASAP FOR THE SRS LIGHT ON SO WE WILL SAVE THE PEOPLE LIFE IN ADVANCE. THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MANY, MANY 2005 HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. FOR SOME REASON MANUFACTURE YEAR 2005 WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MOST RECENT RECALL? WE GOT THE INITIAL LETTER TELLING US OUR AIR BAGS WOULD BE A RECALL ITEM IN THE SUMMER, 2014 BUT THEN NEVER RECEIVED A FOLLOW-UP LETTER. UPON INVESTIGATION ON MY PART I FOUND OUT THAT MY MODEL YEAR, 2005, AIR BAGS DID NOT GET RECALLED. BUT WE ARE HAVING THE SAME AIR BAG ISSUE AND SEEMS LIKE WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED ON SUCH AN IMPORTANT SAFETY MATTER. *TR

STEERING WHEEL SEVERE VIBRATIONS WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 50 UP TO 70 MPH WENT TO AUTO MECHANIC AND REPLACED 2 ENGINE MOUNTS ($1113 TOTAL). *TR

THE PAINT IS COMING OFF MY CAR IN SHEETS. THE PEOPLE AT THE REPAIR SHOP SAID THEY HAVE SEEN THIS AND THAT IT WAS RECALLED BY HONDA. HONDA WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT MY CAR. SAID OLD AGE. THAT ISN'T TRUE. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND HONDA CLAIMS THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE READ ALL ABOUT THE DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS AND I BELIEVE THIS ONE SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT HONDA'S COST. I AM NOT SURE MY VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

THE SLIDING DOORS ROLLERS AND LATCHES ARE DEFECTIVE! THE LEFT DOOR WILL NOT LATCH AND IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD WITH KIDS IN THE BACK! THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!! 2005 HONDA ODYSSEY. *TR

ONE MORNING AS WE WERE STARTED UP THE ENGINE I NOTICED A SOMEWHAT LOUD NOISE AS IS THE MUFFLER HAD A HOLE IN IT. I DROVE IT FOR AWHILE AND NOTICED AT THIS POINT THAT THE NOISE WAS HEARD AS WE ACCELERATED AND WHEN THE CAR WENT INTO ECO MODE. I HAD STOOD OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHILE MY WIFE DROVE AWAY BUT DID NOT NOTICE ANY NOISE. THOUGHT THIS WAS STRANGE. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER ON A RECALL, FUEL PUMP, AND ASKED FOR THEM TO LOOK UNDER IT. THEY REPORTED THAT IT WAS THE MOTOR MOUNT THAT WAS WORN DOWN. I SEE THAT HONDA ODYSSEY, 2005 (OUR YEAR MODEL) THROUGH 2007 HAS THIS PROBLEM. IS THERE ANY TYPE OF ACTION THAT CAN BE TAKEN TO HAVE HONDA REPAIR THIS INCIDENT WITHOUT THE COST COMING FROM ME. *TR
