STRUCTURE:BODY
THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. THE DRIVER-SIDE SLIDING DOOR FELL OFF WHEN WE OPENED IT, FALLING TO THE GROUND, CAUSING EXTENSIVE BODY DAMAGE TO THE REAR PANEL. WE HAD THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR REPAIRED ALREADY BUT ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT OPENING AGAIN. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FROM HONDA. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT MANY HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME EXPERIENCE

BRAKE PEDAL FEEL WHEN SLOWING IN ANY FORWARD/REVERSE DIRECTION IS UNRESPONSIVE INCREASING STOPPING DISTANCE AND AFFECTING EMERGENCY MANEUVERS. DEALERSHIP/ HONDA HAS NOT AND WILL NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY!

WHEELS
METAL VALVE STEM CAP WERE INSTALLED ON TIRES WHEN I GOT MY CAR BRAND NEW. YESTERDAY I TRIED TO OPEN THE CAP FOR REFILL, THEY ARE UNABLE TO OPEN DUE TO CORRODED METAL. I BELIEVE THIS IS DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I BELIEVE OPENING UP A TIRE VALVE CAP SHOULD BE EASY, BUT FOUND IT IMPOSSIBLE. I DID NOT WANT TO BREAK THE VALVE OR DAMAGE MYSELF. I AM FORCED TO DRIVE ON TIRES NOT PROPERLY INFLATED.

SEAT BELTS
I AM VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE TREATMENT I HAVE RECEIVED AS A HONDA OWNER. I OWN A 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE SEATBELT RANDOMLY STOPPED WORKING AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO FIX IT UNDER THE LIFETIME WARRANTY. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING HONDAS MY ENTIRE ADULT LIFE. CORPORATE MADE ME JUMP THROUGH HOOPS TO GATHER MY REGISTRATION INFORMATION FROM 2000! THEY SAID IF I COULD SHOW LOYALTY TO THE BRAND THEY WOULD FIX IT UNDER THE "GOOD WILL PROGRAM." THEY SAY THE CAR WAS WRECK BEFORE I BOUGHT IT AND THAT IS WHAT MESSED UP THE SEATBELT. HOWEVER, I PURCHASE THE CAR IN 2013. IT HAS BEEN WORKING FOR 5 YEARS AND THEN RANDOMLY GOES OUT BECAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT MORE THAN 5 YEARS AGO?! WHERE IS THE LOGIC?!!! WELL, SHOWING THAT I PREVIOUSLY OWNED A HONDA ACCORD WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR CORPORATE TO CORRECT THEIR MISTAKE, BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE IT SERVICED AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP. I WAS LIVING IN BFE MISSISSIPPI AT THE TIME. HOW WAS THAT MY FAULT? THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN ROCKWALL, TEXAS IS A JOKE. THEY DETERMINED THEY WEREN'T GOING TO FIX IT RIGHT OFF THE BAT. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, IT SEEMS HONDA SKIMPS OUT ON SEATBELTS. THIS IS WHERE THEY CUT COSTS. I HAD NEVER HAD A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH A HONDA UP UNTIL THIS POINT. THIS ISN'T FIXING SOMETHING THAT IS NO BIG DEAL: LIKE THE SPEAKER THAT FADES IN AND OUT OR THE LOCKS THAT DON'T ALWAYS UNLOCK TOGETHER. THIS IS MY LIFE THEY ARE PLAYING WITH! IT IS DISGUSTING! DO NOT BUY HONDA! I NEVER WILL AGAIN. TOYOTA WOULDN'T TREAT A LIFE LONG CUSTOMER LIKE THIS.

RECALLS NUMBER 17V-725 AND 18V-170 APPEAR TO BE SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES FOR PASSENGERS IN THE 2ND ROW SEATS, AND THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A MANUFACTURER SOLUTION. FOR THE 17V-725 RECALL, IT HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING FOR OVER A YEAR WITHOUT A SOLUTION OFFERED BY THE MANUFACTURER. WHY IS THIS TAKING SO LONG AND WHY HASN'T NHSTA NOT TAKEN STRONGER ACTION TO COMPEL HONDA TO FIX THE PROBLEM? THIS IS WHY YOU EXIST, TO KEEP CONSUMERS SAFE BEFORE A SAFETY INCIDENT OCCURS. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS WITH HONDA TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

ENGINE
THERE WAS A PREVIOUS LAWSUIT AGAINST HONDA FOR HONDA ACCORDS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAVE A 08 ODYSSEY THAT'S HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT UNFORTUNATELY I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND IT GOT SO BAD I WAS TOLD I NEED A NEW MOTOR. I WENT TO HAVE AN OIL CHANGE AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP BACK IN NOVEMBER AND LAST MONTH WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL WAS BONE DRY. HOW'S THAT POSSIBLE IF IT'S NOT BURNING OR LEAKING OIL? HONDA KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM YET REFUSED ME ANY HELP AND TOLD ME I HAVE TO BRING IT IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR ON TOP OF REPLACING THE MOTOR ON MY OWN. THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS I FOUND ONLINE WITH PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME VEHICLE AND SAME PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY THEY KNOW ABOUT IT AND ARE KEEPING UP WITH HAVING TO CONSTANTLY ADD OIL, WHERE I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND APPARENTLY I WAS DRIVING IT WITH NO OIL FOR ONLY GOD KNOWS HOW LONG. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND ITS NOT FAIR THAT WE SHOULD HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE. I'M A SINGLE MOM, 2 SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS, I DON'T HAVE OVER 3000 TO REPAIR A MOTOR THAT BROKE BECAUSE OF A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THIS NEEDS TO BE HEARD AND WE NEED TO GET HONDA TO DO A RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE'S GONNA BE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE GONNA HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA IS A CROOKED DEALERSHIP AND DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS. NOW I'M SITTING HERE STUCK WITH A VAN WHICH I PURCHASED WITH MY SON'S DISABILITY MONEY BTW, WITH A BAD MOTOR CAUSE OF A MISTAKE HONDA MADE WHEN MAKING THESE VANS. PLEASE GET MY STORY OUT THERE, LET THIS BE HEARD. I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME DO SOMETHING. THIS IS SAD AND WRONG AND I'M SURE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. I'M ALSO GOING TO CONTACT THE BBB AND THE LOCAL ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE. THEY'VE ALREADY HAD LAWSUITS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM BUT FOR THE HONDA ACCORD, NOW WE NEED TO START ONE FOR THE HONDA ODYSSEY
