SUDDEN 'POP' NOISE WAS HEARD AS COMING TO A STOP ON EXIT RAMP OF HIGHWAY. FOUND OUT THAT THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS BROCKEN IN PIECES. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY DETERMINED THAT SOMETHING MUST HAVE HIT IT WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE. INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE DONE ON VEHICLE PRIOR TO CUSTOMER PAYING FOR THE SINCE AMERICAN HONDA WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE GLASS. THE DEALER WRAP THE GLASS OVER BUT STILL THOROUGH INVESTIGATION HAS NOT BEEN DONE. CALLED AMERICAN HONDA AND THEY FILED IT AS COMPLAINTS AND BELIEVES WHAT DEALER SAYS SINCE TECHNICIAN IS THEIR INVESTIGATOR. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN LOOKED AT BY ANY TECHNICIAN YET.

I SHOULD HAVE NEVER GONE BACK TO HONDA! MY 2018 HONDA ODYSSEY HAS BEEN ANOTHER LEMON! BOUGHT THE CAR AS A CPO ON DECEMBER 21, 2018 WITH JUST OVER 3,000 MILES. SINCE THEN THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES TO FIX THIS INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM. I HAD THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD BLACK OUT ON ME AND COULDN'T SEE MY SPEED, YET THE HONDA DEALERSHIP NEAR ME TOLD ME 'JUST DRIVE IT TO WORK, IT'LL BE OKAY.' THEN THE INFOTAINMENT WENT OUT AND NOTHING WORKED FOR WEEKS UNTIL ANOTHER DEALERSHIP WAS NICE ENOUGH TO REPLACE IT. JUST YESTERDAY MY INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM MAKES A VERY LOUD 'BEEP' AND SHUTS DOWN WHILE I'M DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY! THEN THE DASHBOARD BLACKS OUT AND THE CAR 'SAFETY FEATURES ' CAUSE IT TO BREAK! WHEN I SPOKE TO THE DEALERSHIP I AM TOLD 'WE WILL HAVE TO RECREATE THAT PROBLEM BEFORE ANYTHING IT DONE' ARE YOU SERIOUS?! I TAKE MY KIDS AROUND IN THIS MINI VAN. I PUSHED TO GO BACK TO HONDA BECAUSE 'THEY HAVE GOTTEN SO MUCH BETTER', BUT IT TURNS OUT THEY HAVEN'T.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CABIN WATCH MALFUNCTIONS AND TURNS OFF, WHEN THAT OCCURS THE REAR ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM FREEZES AND STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN TURNED OFF. I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY JUST A WEEK AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. NOW I KNOW TO TURN THE SCREEN UP WHEN THE CABIN WATCH MALFUNCTIONS SO THAT MY BATTERY DOES NOT DRAIN. THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS ALSO MALFUNCTION FREQUENTLY SO I CANNOT CHANGE THE STATION VIA THE STEERING WHEEL.

WHEN USING THE PUSH BUTTON TO START MY CAR THE CAR RANDOMLY WON'T START. LIGHTS COME ON THE DASH BUT THE ENGINE DOESN'T TURN OVER. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY CANNOT IDENTIFY ANYTHING WRONG. I HAVE CHILDREN AND HAVING A CAR THAT WON'T START RANDOMLY MAKES MY DAY REALLY STRESSFUL. I NEVER KNOW IF MY TRIP TO RUN ERRANDS, GET GROCERIES OR TO PICK UP MY KIDS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY MY CAR NOT STARTING. THIS CAR IS REALLY UNRELIABLE IN ITS CURRENT STATE. WHAT FRUSTRATES ME THE MOST IS HONDA HAD A RECALL THAT ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM IN OLDER MODELS YET MY CAR MODEL AND YEAR HAVEN'T BEEN RECALLED.

POWER TRAIN
THE VEHICLE DOWN SHIFTS TO A LOWER SPEED DURING TRAVEL. IT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING 45 MILES/HR, AT 70 MILES/HR AND WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON CRUISE. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I THOUGHT THE TRANSMISSION BROKE. IT WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRAFFIC. A COUPLE OF MESSAGES POPPED ON THE DASH, 'TRANSMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM' AND 'BLIND SPOT INFO. SYSTEM PROBLEM'. I PUSHED THE REVERSE BUTTON IT WAS INACTIVE, NEUTRAL WAS WORKING. TOOK THE CAR INTO A PARKING LOT AND CALLED THE DEALER. DEALER ASKED IF I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND ON. I DID THAT AND THE ISSUE WENT AWAY. A 1000 MILES LATER THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN TWICE WITH IN 12 HOURS WITH A NEW MESSAGE ON TOP THE TWO FIRST MESSAGES. THIS TIME THE THIRD MESSAGE WAS 'EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM'. I TOOK PHOTOS THIS TIME OF THE MESSAGES. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND ON BUT THE 'EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM' MESSAGE DID NOT GO AWAY. I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. AFTER THAT, AFTER + MILES LATER AFTER VISITING THE DEALER IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THIS TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING 70 MILES PER HOUR. I CONTINUED DRIVING ON LOW GEAR TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND TURNED IT ON AGAIN THEN IT WAS OK. ANOTHER TIME MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH THE CRUISE ON AND IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN. THAT IS A TOTAL OF 6 TIMES WITHIN 20000 MILES. IT HAPPENED AT ABOUT 10000 MILES, 15000+ MILES, 160159 MILES I TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER HONDA DEALER THIS TIME AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. I CONTACTED HONDA TO REPORT THE ISSUE. HONDA SAID IF THE DEALER CAN'T FIND ANYTHING THEN THERE IS NOTHING TO DO. THIS BOTHERED ME. I DECIDED TO CONTACT NHTSA. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. WHAT DO YOU ADVISE ME TO DO?
