2001 HONDA ODYSSEY Complaints

THE SAFETY TENSIONER IN THE DOOR WAS NOT PRESENT TO PREVENT THE COMPLETE CLOSING OF THE SLIDING DOOR.*JB

REPLACED TRANSMISSION IN A 2001 HONDA ODYSSEY 2 WEEKS AGO. LAST NIGHT ASTROBE LIKE LIGHT FLASHED UNDER THE DASHBOARD AS THE TCS AND ORANGE TRANSMISSION FAILURE LIGHTS LIT UP. THE GREEN ILLUMINATED SQUARE WITH THE D STARTED FLASHING. THE VEHICLE NO LANGER ACCELERATES AND IS BEING TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH ANOTHER TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. IT WAS PURCHASED NEW, WAS IN OUR POSSESSION 1 YEAR AND 1 MONTH AND HAS LESS THAN 29,000 MILES ON IT. IT WAS BROUGHT IN FOR ALL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE IN A TIMELY MANNER.

CONSUMER STATES POWER SLIDING DOOR IS INOPERATIVE. THE SLIDING DOOR HAD GOTTEN STUCK, AND TRAPPED THE KIDS IN THE VEHICLE. PH THE SEAT BELTS HAD UNBOLTED FROM THE INTERIOR. THE SLIDING DOORS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED ON FOUR OCCASIONS AND REMAIN INOPERATIVE. WHEN THE POWER IS OFF, THE DOORS CANNOT BE OPENED MANUALLY AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. SCC

CONSUMER STATED THAT BRAKE ROTORS ARE WEARING AND WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE WILL HAVE A HEAVY VIBRATION AND EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE. DEALER NOTIFIED. TS

CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE. PLEASE FILL IN ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DEALER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM.*JB

CONSUMER STATES, VEHICLE'S REAR SIGNAL LIGHT HAS MINIMUM VISIBILTY WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED. DEALER NOTIDIED. PLEASE PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.*JB

VEHICLES SLIDING DOORS ARE INOPERATIVE IN COLD WEATHER. DOORS UNLOCK BUT DON'T SLIDE OPEN, AND THE DOOR AJAR WARNING LIGHTS COMES ON, BUT CONSUMER IS NOT ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS BACK. THE DEALERSHIP HAS MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY CANNOT. TS

CONSUMER CALLED COMPLAINING ABOUT HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE SIDE DOORS . ALSO STATED THAT THE DOORS GET STUCK NOT ALLOWING HIM TO OPEN THE DOOR NEITHER FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND LATCHES WERE CHANGE AND STILL DID NOT WORK. TS

CONSUMER STATED THE ROTORS STARTED TO WARP AT 12,000 THE ROTORS WERE NEVER REPLACED ONLY CUT DOWN TO REDUCE WARPAGE, CONSUMER STATED WHEN THE ROTORS ARE CUT IT WOULD ONLY SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE ROTORS, ALSO THE REAR HATCH SPOILER WAS REPLACED DUE TO IT BEING CRACKED. TS *JB

SECOND TRANSMISSION FAILURE. TWO MONTHS AGO, HAD UNEXPECTED DOWN SHIFT FROM 4TH TO 2ND ON HIGHWAY (LUCKILY DEVOID OF TRAFFIC). HONDA REPAIRED TRANSMISSION BY REPLACING SOLENOID SWITCH, NOT REPLACING TRANSMISSION. AGAIN, WHILE DRIVING (THIS TIME ACCELERATING) TRANSMISSION SLIPPED, UNEXPECTEDLY ALLOWING NO POWER TO DRIVE WHEELS DURING ACCELERATION. LUCKILY WAS ON A DESERTED ROAD, NO OTHER TRAFFIC. IF I WAS PULLING OUT INTO HIGHWAY (AS WE HAVE TO DO TO LEAVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD) RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC, AS UNEXPECTED INABILITY TO ACCELERATE/MOVE INTO TRAFFIC FLOW WOULD MOST CAUSE TRUCKS BARELLING DOWN HILL TO HIT US. LUCKY THIS HAPPENED 2 MINUTES AND 1/4 MILE EARLIER THAN THAT. OTHERS MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY. DT
