2007 HONDA ODYSSEY Complaints

TOUGH TO STEER! WHEN MOVING IT IS LITTLE OKAY TO MANEUVER STILL HARD BUT MANAGEABLE. WITH ALL THESE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME STEERING POWER ISSUE I WAS SURPRISE HONDA DIDN'T RECALL FOR THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND FIX THE ISSUE. *TR

THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE RECENT RECALL REGARDING THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER. THE CAR WAS RECENTLY TAKEN INTO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER. EVER SINCE THIS RECALL WAS COMPLETED, I'VE FELT (AND SOMETIME HEARD) A SLIGHT "BUZZ" WHEN FIRST TOUCHING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE "BUZZ" IS A VIBRATION, WHICH IS FELT IN THE FIRST FEW SECONDS AFTER APPLICATION AND IMMEDIATELY DISAPPEARS IF BRAKING IS HELD, OR RELEASED. IT MAY AGAIN APPEAR IF THE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED, BUT NOT ALWAYS. BRAKING FEELS NORMAL WITH NO OTHER EVENTS. IT HAS NOT GOTTEN WORSE OR DISAPPEARED. PLEASE CALL FOR FURTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. THANK YOU. *TR

LOSS OF POWER STEERING & DIFFICULTY TURNING STEERING WHEEL. PAINT ON TOP OF THE ROOF HAS BEGUN TO FADE. HAD TO REPLACE OIL PAN BECAUSE OF LUG NUT DAMAGE TO PAN. ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC DAMAGED WAS CAUSED TO THE OIL PAN DUE TO THE QUALITY OF METAL WITHIN THE LUG NUT THAT IS OF HARSHER MATERIAL THAN THE OIL PAN. THEREFORE, IT CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE OIL PAN THAT REQUIRED US TO HAVE AN IMMEDIATE OIL PAN REPLACEMENT DURING A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE. *TR

ON 04/18/14 I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO TAMERON HONDA BECAUSE IT WAS MISFIRING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON THEN THE ENGINE WOULD BEGIN JERKING AND NOT RESPONDING. I PAID $5940.01 BECAUSE THEY SAID THE ENGINE NEEDED REBUILDING. THIS IS A LOT OF MONEY BUT I DID NOT HAVE A CHOICE IN THAT THEY TOLD ME I WOULD NOT GET ANYTHING ON A TRADE IN AND I REALLY COULDN'T AFFORD ANOTHER CAR. I PICKED UP THE CAR AFTER THE REPAIRS WERE COMPLETE AND THE NEXT DAY I WAS AT A STOP TRYING TO MERGE ACROSS A 4 LANE ROAD. THE ENGINE STARTED MISFIRING AGAIN AND I COULDN'T GET ABOVE ABOUT 10 MPH. NO ONE HIT ME BUT IT COULD HAVE VERY EASILY BEEN A BAD ACCIDENT. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE BACK TO TAMERON 4 MORE TIMES WITH THE SAME SCENARIO. TWICE I HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE AND LOST POWER TO ABOUT 10 MPH. AGAIN I MANAGED TO PULL TO THE SIDE WITHOUT GETTING HIT. JUST A LOT OF HORN BLOWING. THE DEALERSHIP REALLY DIDN'T HAVE AN EXPLANATION. THE LAST TIME I TALKED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER WHO ASSURED ME THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED AND IT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO MY "FUEL". THEY CONTINUED TO LET ME DRIVE THE VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH I WAS TELLING THEM WHAT WAS HAPPENING. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE WITH MY GRANDSON IN THE CAR. THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF LIKE A SWITCH HAD BEEN PULLED. I HIT MY HAZARD LIGHT BUTTON AND MANAGED TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK.THE EXPLANATION GIVEN WAS THE FUEL TANK INDICATOR HAD BROKEN AND I WAS OUT OF GAS. THEY REPLACED THE INDICATOR AND ALSO REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP WHICH WAS RECALLED. THEY DIDN'T MENTION THE RECALL. I KNOW MY VEHICLE HAS 133,000 MILES BUT THIS DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. I AM SUPPOSE TO HAVE A REBUILT ENGINE AND I AM JUST WAITING FOR THE NEXT INCIDENT. NEXT TIME THERE MAY BE A CRASH. *TR

2007 HONDA ODYSSEY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE PAINT PEELING. *SMD SOME TIME AGO, THE CONSUMER NOTICED SMALL BUBBLES OVER THE ENTIRE VEHICLE, SOME OF WHICH HAD STARTED TO PEEL, WHICH LED TO LARGE PORTIONS OF THE PAINT PEELING. THE CONSUMER LEARNED HONDA USED A LOW QUALITY PRIMER WHICH RESULTED IN POOR ADHERENCE TO THE PAINT.

HI WE PURCHASED THIS VAN A FEW MONTHS BACK AS A USED CAR AND IM REALLY SCARED SINCE IT HAS FEW RECALLS ON THIS CAR I HAVE 3 KIDS IM NOT GOING TO RISK ANY TYPE OF INCIDENT WITH THE RECALLS THIS CAR HAS I WAS WONDERING IF I CAN GET SUPPORT TO EXCHANGE THIS CAR. *TR

LAST FALL MY POWER STEERING WOULD GO OUT WHEN I WAS DECELERATING OR REVERSING STARTED TO BE DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE VAN WOULD MAKE A TERRIBLE NOISE WHEN IDLING AND YOU WOULD TURN THE VEHICLE AND I NOTICED IT SEEMED TO ONLY BE WHEN THE WEATHER WAS COLD. I HAD AN AUTO SHOP EVALUATE IT AND FLUSH IT AS WELL AS PLACE A DYE TO SEE IF IT WAS LEAKING AND IT WASN'T. I WENT IN FOR A RECALL JUST RECENTLY AND THE DEALERSHIP STATED I SHOULD JUST REPLACE THE POWER STEERING PUMP EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AS MULTIPLE ONLINE CONSUMER COMPLAINT SITES HAVE LISTED THIS PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF I HAVE TO DRIVE IN ICY CONDITIONS TO WHICH I WILL HAVE TO DECELERATE I WILL HAVE PROBLEMS WITH STEERING WHICH IS NOT SAFE FOR MYSELF, MY CHILDREN AND OTHER DRIVERS. *TR
