SAFETY RECALL 12V-573 DUE TO THIS ABOVE RECALL MY VEHICLE ROLLED DOWN AND DAMAGE THE NEIGHBOR STORAGE SHED AND MY VEHICLE GOT DAMAGE, THE TOTAL FOR BOTH DAMAGES ARE $2,313.94. ON 02/082013 I HAD CALL AMERICAN HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION TO FILE A CLAIM AND THEY HAD TURN DOWN MY CLAIM# [XXX].. COULD YOU BE ABLE TO HELP ME WITH THIS CLAIM? THANK YOU, INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ABOUT A MONTH OR SO BEFORE....KEY WOULD ALMOST GET STUCK AND NOT BE ABLE TO START CAR. THEN, IT GOT STUCK OFFICIALLY. STUCK!!!!!!!!! IT WILL NOT TURN,MOVE AT ALL. CAR IS LOCKED UP. CURRY HONDA SAYS IT REQUIRES A NEW IGNITION SWITCH. $400.00+ THIS CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE SEEING AS ONLINE SEARCHES HAVE AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF HONDA ODYSSEYS REQUIRING IGNITION SWITCHES. *TR

MY TRANSMISSION IS MAKING A NOISE, AS OF 3/21/13. I HAD TAKEN IT TO TRANSMISSION SHOP AND IT IS RING AND PINION AND IT IS QUITE EXPENSIVE SO WHEN I WENT TO CHECK IT OUT ON THE INTERNET CAME ACROSS THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL BACK IN 2004 I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED AND NOW IT IS COSTING ME SEVERAL THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, IF THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS I EXPECT HONDA TO PAY FOR THIS NOT ME. I LOVE MY VAN AND BOUGHT IT BECAUSE OF ITS DEPENDABILITY AND RELIABILITY AND NOW I AM HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE VAN. I EXPECT SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME ASAP AND HONDA TO COVER THE COST. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THE IGNITION SWITCH FAILED; HOWEVER, THE IGNITION KEY COULD BE REMOVED WITHOUT SHIFTING INTO PARK WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING NOR WAS THE MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 188,710.

I TOOK MY CAR IN ON A RECALL FOR SHIFT INTERLOCK, WAS TOLD ALL MY ENGINE MOUNTS WERE BROKEN AND IT WAS GOING TO COST ME 1000.00. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS, THE MILEAGE ON MY 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY IS 101434. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HONDA SHOULD PAY FOR THIS COST. HONDA IS KNOWN FOR THERE RELIABILITY AND DEPENDABILITY, SHOULD STAND BEHIND THERE VEHICLES. I HAD TO CALL AROUND TO SEE WHAT IT WOULD COST AND IS BEING FIXED. I CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY THIS BUT I AM FORCED TO. I PURCHASED THE VAN BECAUSE OF THE RELIABILITY OF THERE VEHICLES AND NOW THIS. SO WHAT IS HONDA GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS PROBLEM? ANOTHER COMPLAINT # IS 10425453. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND THIS REPAIR IS GOING TO COST ME 700.00 AND I WANT A SETTLEMENT AMOUNT TO COVER THIS COST. I EXPECT TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE ON THIS MATTER AND SOONER THE BETTER. *TR

THIS IS IN ADDITION TO MY EARLIER COMPLAIN---NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10499643-- INDICATION OF ENGINE TROUBLE DID NOT GIVE ANY ADVANCE INFORMATION.INDICATION MUST BE AN ALARM FOR THE DRIVER SO THAT HE WILL TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS.IN MY CASE THERE WAS NO TIME AVAILABLE.IT WORKED AS FAILURE INDICATION ONLY. ALL VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS BE INFORMED THAT ALARM (TROUBLE)INDICATION SHOULD BE A PRE-FAILURE ALARM AND SHOULD GIVE SOME TIME TO TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS. HOPE YOU WILL TAKE UP THE ISSUE WITH MANUFACTURERS. *TR

TOOK OUR HONDA ODYSSEY VAN IN FOR SERVICE WITH THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER. WAS TOLD THAT WE HAD BROKEN MOTOR MOUNTS. DEALER SERVICE CENTER SAID THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS YEAR/MAKE/MODEL AND WAS A REAL RISK TO OUR SAFETY IF WE DIDN'T GET IT FIXED. IF IT IS SUCH A RISK, WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL? FROM LOOKING AT THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE, THERE ARE SO MANY IS IT TO NUMEROUS TO COUNT THEM ALL. *TR

DEAR SIR/MADAM, WE OWN A 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY EX AND BOUGHT IT NEW AT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. WE MAINTAINED THE VEHICLE ACCORDING TO THE SPECS BY THE MANUFACTURER. EARLIER TODAY WE BROUGHT IT TO A LOCAL AUTO SHOP TO GET A REGULAR OIL CHANGE AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE ENGINE MOUNTS ARE BROKEN DOWN AND SINCE THE MILEAGE IS STILL UNDER 100K, IT IS UNCOMMON TO HAVE THAT. THE STORE OWNER ALSO MENTIONED THAT HE NOTICED A LOT OF OTHER HONDA ODYSSEYS HAVE THE SIMILAR PROBLEM. WE WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH THE MATTER AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE ACTUALLY A LOT OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING SIMILAR ISSUE FROM OTHER HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS PARTICULARLY FROM 2003 TO 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY. SINCE WE DID NOT FIND A RECALL FROM HONDA OF AMERICA, WE WANT TO REPORT THE PROBLEM HERE TO BE TAKEN A LOOK UPON. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
