SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE ACCELERATING ONTO FREEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH THE BRAKES FULLY ENGAGED AND ENGINE POWER WAS LOST WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE ACCELERATOR. SPEED DECREASED BY ABOUT 25MPH IN JUST A FEW SECONDS. WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE ACCELERATOR ENGINE ENGAGED AGAIN AND WE INCREASED SPEED TO ABOUT 45 MPH, WHEN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WAS GOING TO SHIFT INTO OVERDRIVE, THE SAME INCIDENT OCCURRED AGAIN! POWER WAS REGAINED AT THE SAME SPEED ABOUT 25 MPH. WE SPEEDED UP TO ABOUT 45 MPH AGAIN AND THIS TIME I LOOKED AT THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKES FULLY ENGAGED THEMSELVES AGAIN THE BRAKE PEDAL ACTUALLY DEPRESSED WHILE I HAD MY FOOT ON ACCELERATOR ONLY! I THEN TOOK THE OVERDRIVE OFF AND PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN D3 MODE. THE INCIDENT DIDN'T OCCUR AGAIN WHILE IN D3 MODE. I WAS LEFT HAVING TO DRIVE ON FREEWAY AROUND 55MPH SCARED FOR MY AND MY FAMILIES LIVES! THIS VEHICLE SELF ENGAGED BRAKES FULLY THREE TIMES, WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON ACCELERATED ONLY! *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS DRIVING OUT IN THE COUNTRY, I WAS GOING AROUND 40MPHS WHEN THE CAR FELT LIKE AN EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS PULLED UP. THE CAR BRAKED VERY QUICKLY FROM 40 TO ABOUT 5 -10MPHS. I STOPPED ,TESTED THE BRAKES AND BEGAN TO GO AGAIN VERY SLOWLY. AFTER DRIVING A FEW MINS SLOWLY I BEGAN TO GO FASTER WHEN I HIT ABOUT 35 MPH IT RAPIDLY BRAKE AGAIN. AT THIS POINT I WAS VERY SCARED, MY KIDS THOUGHT I HIT A ANIMAL. SO I DECIDED TO STOP, BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO FIND A ROAD TO PULL OVER ONTO IT REPEATED IT 3 MORE TIMES ONLY GOING ABOUT 10-15 MPH. I HAD THE VAN TOWED TO MY MECHANIC. HE COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM SO WE HAD IT TOWED TO PRIORITY HONDA IN CHESAPEAKE, VA TO HAVE TESTING DONE. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED 24 HRS EARLIER I WAS TRAVELING FROM RICHMOND, VA AND I WOULD HAVE CAUSE A CRASH. I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND FELT THAT IT HAD PUT MY CHILDREN ALONG WITH MYSELF IN GRAVE DANGER. *TR

STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES
I ENTERED A HIGHWAY AND WAS ACCELERATING TO A SPEED OF APPROX. 35 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DECELERATED, AS IF THE BRAKES HAD BEEN SLAMMED ON, CAUSING ME TO LURCH FORWARD, TRIGGERING THE SEAT BELTS TO TIGHTEN. I MAINTAINED STEERING CONTROL, REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL, THEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED RAPIDLY WITHOUT MY PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 60 SECONDS. I'M STATING THIS MILDLY WHEN I SAY THE EXPERIENCE WAS TERRIFYING. I PULLED OVER, TURNED THE CAR OFF, AND CALLED OUR MECHANIC WHO ADVISED I SLOWLY AND SAFELY DRIVE THE VAN TO THE SHOP, WHICH WASN'T TOO FAR AWAY, OR CONSIDER HAVING IT TOWED. I CHOSE TO DRIVE SLOWLY TO THE MECHANICS AND THE PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR AGAIN. UPON DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, OUR MECHANIC SAID IT WAS A STEERING SENSOR THAT LOST ITS MEMORY AND NEEDED RESET, AN EASY FIX AND THAT WHILE THIS PROBLEM IS RARE, IT'S NOT UNHEARD OF, YET IT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. (WE HAD RECENTLY HAD NEW TIRES INSTALLED PRIOR TO THIS EVENT, THE MECHANIC SUSPECTED THAT WHILE THE TIRES WERE BEING CHANGED, THE SENSOR'S MEMORY MUST HAVE BEEN WIPED.) THE SECOND EVENT WAS THIS PAST WED., OCT. 2, THE SAME EXPERIENCE AS BEFORE HAPPENED AGAIN. ONLY ON THIS OCCASION, OUR MECHANIC'S DIAGNOSTIC TESTING DID NOT PROVIDE A CODE AS IT HAD BEFORE, BUT RECOGNIZING THE COMPLAINT, THEY RESET THE SENSOR AGAIN. IN BOTH EVENTS, THE ROADS WERE DRY, CLEAR WEATHER, WE WERE DRIVING ON NEW TIRES AND AT LOW SPEEDS, HAVING JUST MOMENTS BEFORE TURNED ON THE IGNITION AND BEGUN ACCELERATING. WE ARE NOW BEING TOLD THAT OUR VEHICLE HAS TWO BROKEN MOTOR MOUNTS. WE HIGHLY SUSPECT THIS IS DUE TO THE SUDDEN JERKING BACK AND FORWARDS FROM THIS INVOLUNTARY DECELERATION/ACCELERATION ISSUE; IT'S AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR! HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS MODEL AND GET A FIX ASAP. WE ARE THANKFUL THIS HASN'T CAUSED AN ACCIDENT--YET. *WE BOUGHT THIS VAN USED IN 2010. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE
LIFTGATE STRUTS FAILURE. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF THE DANGER WHEN A LIFTGATE STRUT FAILED WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR INDICATION OF FAILURE. MY ODYSSEY 2007 LIFTGATE WAS WORKING FINE ON SATURDAY BUT THEN COMPLETELY FAILED ON SUNDAY. IT JUST DROPS FROM AN OPEN POSITION. I'M GLAD THAT NO ONE GETS HURT. WHEN I TRY TO LIFT IT AGAIN, THE STRUT WOULD NOT HOLD THE TAILGATE OPEN ANYMORE. I REPORTED TO HONDA DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR 2007 MODEL BUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2008 AND UP. I WILL SUGGEST THAT YOU ALSO CHECK THE STRUT ON MODELS 2005 AND UP AS IT LOOKS LIKE THERE A LOT OF COMPLAIN STRUT FAILURE ON THESE YEAR MODEL AS WELL WHEN YOU GO TO ODYCLUB.COM WHICH IS A FORUM FOR HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS. I WILL REPLACE MINE AND NOT WAIT FOR HONDA TO TAKE OWNERSHIP ON THIS FAILURE BUT I AM STILL REPORTING THIS IN HOPE THAT NO ONE WILL GET HURT IF HONDA CONTINUES TO IGNORE THIS ISSUE. LIFTGATE STRUTS FAILURE CAN CAUSE INJURY OR EVEN DEATH ESPECIALLY TO SMALL ADULTS AND CHILDREN. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE TRAVELING ON FLAT, LEVEL SURFACE STREETS AT ROUGHLY 40MPH, CAR WOULD SPONTANEOUSLY DOWNSHIFT (TO 1ST GEAR?) CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SLOW VERY QUICKLY/LOTS OF DRAG (LOCKING UP SEATBELTS) AS IF THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED QUICKLY. THE VEHICLE WILL THEN RESHIFT BACK INTO A HIGHER GEAR WITH LITTLE TO NO RESISTANCE AGAIN. THIS MAY HAPPEN 1-4 TIMES WITHIN A 60 SECOND PERIOD. PULLING THE CAR OVER, TURNING OFF AND TURNING ON AGAIN SEEMS TO FIX ISSUE. SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR, SEEMED TO FIX ISSUE. SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL, POWER CYCLING CAR SEEMED TO FIX ISSUE. OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS OR SO, THIS HAS HAPPENED ~2X MONTH. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35-40 MPH AT A STEADY RATE ON AN EMPTY STREET. MY FOOT WAS ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED DOWN QUICKLY. THE CAR STEERING PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND I FELT VIBRATIONS IN MY FOOT THAT WAS ON THE GAS PEDAL. THIS LASTED ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS, THEN RESOLVED AND THE CAR WENT BACK TO IT'S PREVIOUS SPEED. THIS HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES IN THE NEXT FEW MINUTES. DURING THESE EPISODES I LOOKED DOWN AND CONFIRMED THAT MY FOOT WAS IN THE PROPER PLACE, AND I ACTUALLY SAW THE BRAKE DEPRESS SPONTANEOUSLY A FEW MILLIMETERS. I ALSO CHECKED THE CARPET AND PULLED IT FAR AWAY TO MAKE SURE IT WAS NOT INTERFERING WITH THE PEDAL. I WAS ON AN ISOLATED ROAD, SO FORTUNATELY NO CARS WERE BEHIND ME. I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALER. MY CAR WAS AT THE BURNS HONDA REPAIR SHOP FOR A WEEK AND THEY INSISTED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND RETURNED I NEVER DROVE IT AGAIN. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
DRIVING 45 MILES PER HOUR AND THE BRAKES SUDDENLY WENT ON VERY HARD BUT NOT IN A SKID. EVERY ONE WAS THROWN FORWARD INTO THEIR SEATBELTS. THE CAR BEHIND NEARLY CRASHED INTO US. I PUT 4-WAY FLASHERS ON AND WENT SLOWER - 35-40MPH AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. IT HAPPENED A THIRD TIME GOING SLOWER YET. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AT A STORE AND WHEN WE STARTED OFF AGAIN IT DID NOT HAPPEN AGAIN THE REST OF THE WAY HOME. HOW CAN THIS DANGEROUS HONDA MALFUNCTION BE FIXED? THANKS *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY:HATCHBACK/LIFTGATE
THE LIFT GATE STRUT ON OUR 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY EX-L SUDDENLY FAILED AND THE GATE FELL BY ITSELF. IT ALMOST INJURED ME WHILE LOADING SHOPPING BAGS INTO THE TRUNK AREA. THE REAR GATE IS VERY HEAVY THAT IT COULD ACTUALLY RESULT IN A SEVERE INJURY OR FATALITY, WHEN IT SUDDENLY FELL ON ONE'S HEAD. AFTER SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, I FOUND THAT THE SAME ISSUE OCCURS TO OTHER HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS. CITE: HTTP://WWW.ODYCLUB.COM/FORUMS/52-2005-2010-ODYSSEY/40133-TAILGATE-GAS-STRUT-PROBLEMS-9.HTML THERE'S ALSO A SIMILAR RECALL FOR 2008 AND 2009 HONDA ODYSSEY MODEL REGARDING THE LIFT GATE STRUT. *JS

WHILE MAINTAINING A SPEED OF APPROX. 40 MPH WITH MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR, IT SUDDENLY FELT AS IF SOMEONE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES. THIS ONLY HAPPENED ONCE ON THIS DATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THERE WERE NO CODES AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE SITUATION. THEY CHECKED THE BRAKING SYSTEM THOROUGHLY BUT COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF MY ISSUE. ONE MONTH LATER (8/17/13), THE SAME "SEVERE UNINTENDED BRAKING" HAPPENED AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES WITHIN 1/2-3/4 OF A MILE. FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS RIGHT BEHIND ME OR THEY WOULD HAVE HIT ME. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AS I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL SLAM ON THE BRAKES WITHOUT MY INVOLVEMENT. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
VSA INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARED AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. BROUGHT VEHICLE INTO DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VSA SYSTEM ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO AND THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED ACCORDING TO THE RECALL AT THAT TIME. DEALERSHIP STATES DOES NOT KNOW REASON FOR CURRENT PROBLEM. NOW DEALERSHIP ORDERS "REPLACE VSA CONTROL UNIT, REPLACE 47 PIN VSA CONNECTOR, BLEED SYSTEM, PERFORM SENSOR NEUTRAL MEMORIZATION PROCEDURE, AND TEST DRIVE." I AM CONCERNED THAT CURRENT PROBLEM IS ASSOCIATED WITH PREVIOUS RECALL PROBLEM OR THAT REPAIR MADE DURING RECALL DID NOT ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. DEALERSHIP DENIES THIS BUT CANNOT EXPLAIN REASON FOR CURRENT PROBLEM. DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO PROVIDE ME THE DAMAGED PART(S). CONCERN: CAR HAD 41866 MILES AND WAS SERVICED AS REQUIRED. DEALERSHIP CANNOT IDENTIFY REASON FOR BREAKDOWN OF VSA PART OR SYSTEM. AS THERE WAS A PREVIOUS RECALL FOR THIS PART IT APPEARS THAT THE CURRENT PROBLEM AND NEEDED REPAIRS MAY INDEED RELATE TO THE PREVIOUS RECALL. *TR

ENGINE, SUSPENSION, STRUCTURE
IN A ROUTINE VIRGINIA STATE SAFETY INSPECTION A HONDA DEALER FAILED MY WIFE'S 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN (50902 MILES) FOR TWO BROKEN MOTOR MOUNTS (FRONT AND PASSENGER SIDE) AND A BURNED OUT BRAKE LIGHT. I DID NOT AND DO NOT BELIEVE THAT SUCH A NEW, LOW MILEAGE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE DEVELOPED BROKEN MOTOR MOUNTS, ESPECIALLY SINCE MY WIFE DROVE THE VAN GENTLY SINCE IT WAS NEW. BECAUSE THE PROJECTED REPAIR COSTS TO REPLACE THE MOTOR MOUNTS, "CRACKED" COMPLIANCE BUSHINGS AND OTHER UNSPECIFIED BUSHINGS WERE EXPECTED TO BE SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS, I TOOK THE VAN TO AN INDEPENDENT AUTO REPAIR SHOP FOR A SECOND OPINION. THE INDEPENDENT SHOP DID ESTABLISH THAT THE FRONT MOTOR MOUNT WAS BROKEN AND THAT THE OTHER ISSUES, HOWEVER, WERE SPURIOUS. THE INDEPENDENT SHOP AGREED TO REPAIR THE VAN FOR $368. I THINK THAT HONDA HAS IN THIS CASE DESIGNED AND PRODUCED FAULTY MOTOR MOUNTS (I THINK THAT EACH HONDA ODYSSEY ENGINE HAS 5 MOTOR MOUNTS). I ALSO THINK THAT HONDA SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO REPLACE THE FAULTY MOTOR MOUNTS AT NO COST TO THE VEHICLE'S OWNERS AND SHOULD REIMBURSE OWNERS (CURRENT AND PRIOR) FOR ANY RELATED REPAIR COSTS. SINCE A FAULTY MOTOR MOUNT TRIGGERED A REJECTION IN A VIRGINIA STATE SAFETY INSPECTION, THIS HONDA MOTOR MOUNT FAILURE ISSUE IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, AIR BAGS
WHILE TURNING INTO A PARKING SPACE AND APPLYING MY BRAKES, THE ENGINE REVVED, BRAKES STOPPED RESPONDING AND THE VEHICLE PROPELLED FORWARD, RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE JUMPING A MEDIAN AND RAMMING INTO A TREE AT WHICH POINT THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND ENGINE CUT-OFF. THIS LEFT ME WITH BURNS ON THE SKIN OF MY ARMS AND NECK AREA. I HAVE OWNED AND DRIVEN THIS VAN FOR SIX YEARS AND AM CERTAIN THAT I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED AS THE DRIVER SIDE SEATBELT WAS LEFT INOPERABLE. WE WERE TOLD BY OUR DEALERSHIP THAT THE SIDE AIR BAG HAD DEPLOYED WITHIN THE COLUMN, BUT DID NOT ENTER THE CABIN AS IT WAS NOT VISIBLE AND WAS CAUGHT WITHIN THE SEAT BELT PILLAR. *TR

I WAS DRIVING BEHIND SOMEONE THAT STOPPED SHORT AND I WENT TO HIT MY BRAKES AND FELT LIKE NOTHING WAS THERE!!! IT TURNED INTO A THREE CAR ACCIDENT WITH MY THREE CHILDREN, AGES 10, 2 AND 1. IT STOPPED VERY LIGHTLY. I ALSO FIND THAT I CAN'T STOP WHERE I INTEND TO AND THAT THE CAR CONTINUALLY ONLY LETS ME DO "ROLLING" STOPS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS JUST ENTERING HIGHWAY VIA RAMP AND ACCELERATING TO MERGE. AS SOON AS THE SPEED HIT APPROXIMATELY 55MPH, IT SUDDENLY PUT THE BRAKE AND DROPPED THE SPEED TO ABOUT 40MPH. EVERY TIME I TRIED TO GO BEYOND THE SPEED, IT SUDDENLY PUT THE BRAKE. I COULD NOT GET THE SPEED TO GO BEYOND 55MPH. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND ALSO FOR THE OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. I EVENTUALLY PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE KEY OFF TO WAIT FOR ABOUT 5MINUTES AND THEN I STARTED THE CAR. THAT TIME, NO PROBLEM. THE EXACTLY SAME INCIDENT HAPPENED THREE OTHER TIMES RATHER RANDOMLY. EVERY TIME, I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAIT FOR FEW MINUTES IT RESTART THE CAR. WHEN I MENTIONED IT TO ON THE PHONE TO HONDA SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AT THE DEALER I BOUGHT THE CAR, HE JUST SAID THAT THE RECALL IS FOR PILOT ONLY AND THEY HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE ODYSSEY HAVING THIS ISSUE. SO, I AM ADDING MY NAME TO THE LIST OF COMPLAINS WITH THE HOPE THAT HONDA TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY. THANKS. *TR
