SEATS
WHILE DRIVING WITH 6 YEAR OLD IN 2ND ROW SEAT IN HER CAR SEAT, HAD TO SLAM ON BRAKES TO AVOID COLLISION TO HAVE THE SEAT (HONDA SEAT) UNLATCH FROM FLOOR AND FLING HER INSIDE OF HER CAR SEAT (CHILD SEAT) FACE FIRST INTO THE BACK OF THE PASSENGER SEAT. ONCE STOPPED AND REMOVED HER AND I PUSHED THE SEAT BACK DOWN HARD, HEARD IT CLICK AND THEN RELEASED AND DID AGAIN, PULLED ON IT SEVERAL TIMES AND SEEMED SECURE. 3 DAYS GO BY, AND NOW MY SON IS IN THAT SEAT. WE WERE DRIVING HOME YESTERDAY AND AGAIN, SOMEONE CUT ME OFF WITHOUT MUCH STOPPING DISTANCE AND SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES YET AGAIN. THIS TIME HE WAS FLUNG FACE FIRST INTO THE BACK OF THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND HITTING THE TOP OF HIS HEAD ON THE METAL PART OF THE HEAD REST THAT WAS PULLED UP. BOTH RESULTED IN SCREAMING, CRYING, PAIN, AND BEING FRIGHTENED TO BE IN THAT SEAT. THIS IS NOT OKAY. BOTH INCIDENTS WERE ON CITY ROADS IN SOUTH FLORIDA DURING DRY WEATHER.

AIR BAGS, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TAKATA RECALL MY VAN WAS PART OF THE RECALL AND THE FIX WAS DONE BUT WHEN IT IS HUMID OUTSIDE THEN MY SRS LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON. WHEN WE GO DOWN SOUTH TO FLORIDA THEN THE SRS LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON UNTIL WE GET INTO LESS HUMID WEATHER. WE ARE PLANNING ON MOVING BACK DOWN SOUTH AND WE ARE WORRIED THAT THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT FIXED RIGHT. ALSO THE PASSENGER HEADLAMP GOES OUT TWICE AS FAST AS THE DRIVERS SIDE. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP TWICE BEFORE I HAVE TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE.

SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
MY BRAKES VIBRATE WHEN SLOWING DOWN ON THE FREEWAY, OCCASIONALLY WHILE DRIVING ON SURFACE STREETS WHEN SLOWING DOWN FOR LIGHTS. I FIRST NOTICED THIS SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE. I TOOK THE VAN IN ASKED FOR THE BRAKES TO BE CHECKED. THE VIBRATING STOPPED FOR SEVERAL WEEKS THEN STARTED BACK UP. I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHECKED THE TIRES. IT STOPPED AGAIN FOR SEVERAL WEEKS THEN STARTED BACK UP AGAIN. I TOOK THE VAN IN AND ASKED FOR THE ROTORS TO BE TURNED. THAT AGAIN HELPED FOR A FEW WEEKS AND THE VIBRATING RETURNED. IT IS FRUSTRATING AND SCARY TO FEEL THE VIBRATION IN MY STEERING WHEEL AND IF I BRAKE HARD TO FEEL THE VAN PULL TO THE RIGHT. I HAVE EXPLAINED THIS PROBLEM TO THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I COMPLAIN ABOUT IT BUT CANNOT AFFORD TO CONTINUE TO TAKE IT IN AND GET NO SATISFACTORY REPAIRS. AT ONE POINT I CAME HOME AND AIRED UP MY TIRES AND THAT SEEMED TO HELP FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS. THEN THE VIBRATION IS BACK AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I PURCHASED THE VAN IN DECEMBER, 2014 AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. IS THERE ANY SOLUTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN FOUND FOR THIS PROBLEM???

RE: HONDA RECALL NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 17V-725 DEAR SIR/MADAM, MY HONDA 2015 ODYSSEY IS IN THE RECALL SCOPE, THE HONDA RECALL S0G WAS ANNOUNCED AT NOV.17, 2017. IT IS STILL ON INCOMPLETE AND NO MORE ACTIONS ABOUT REMEDY. I DID CALL HONDA TO ASK THE SCHEDULE, THEY RESPONDED ME THAT THERE IS NO VALID SOLUTION AND SCHEDULE ACCORDING THEIR INTERNAL COMMUNICATION. I AM DISAPPOINTED AND WORRIED ON THIS RECALL SINCE MY CHILDREN SEAT THE 2ND ROW SEATS EVERYDAY. MAY I KNOW IF THERE IS TIME CONSTRAINT TO HONDA TO CLOSE THE RECALL WITH ACTIONS? I REALLY WANT TO GET AN EXPLICIT SOLUTION AND SCHEDULE FROM HONDA TO SOLVE THE POTENTIAL RISK.

I JUST GOT DELIVERY OF THIS NEW 2018 EX-L W NAV+RES. THE HORN ON THIS VEHICLE IS TOO SOFT AND SOMETIMES ON BUSY HIGHWAYS CANNOT BE HEARD FROM OTHER CARS WHEN THE IT IS PRESSED IN EMERGENCY, ESPECIALLY IF THE OTHER DRIVER IS LESSENING TO RADIO AT MODERATE TO HIGH VOLUME. COMPARED TO PREVIOUS YEARS ODYSSEY AND OTHER VEHICLES THIS MODEL TRIM HAS A SINGLE HORN WHEREAS OTHER HAD DOUBLE. THE HORN VOLUME NEEDS TO HIGHER FOR OTHER TO BE ABLE TO HEAR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AFTER STOPPING THE CAR HAS TRIED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN WHILE THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED. SIX TIMES SINCE PURCHASE, FOUR TIMES THIS YEAR. I HAVE REPORTED THE PROBLEM TWICE TO HONDA SERVICE AS IT OCCURED TWICE ON THE WAY THERE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE CAR WAS DEFINITELY STOPPED AT BUSY INTERSECTIONSA AND TURNING IT OFF DID NOT STOP THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. IT REQUIRED TWO OR THREE ON AND OFFS IN BUSY TRAFFICE. HAVE TRIED TO VIDEOTAPE PROBLEM BUT TRAFFIC HAS SPOOKED MY ABILITY AND CONCERN THAT ENGINE WOULD BLOW, SO LOUD IS THE REARING UP. ONLY AFFIRMATION IS MY WIFE AS AN EYEWITNESS ONCE, AND TWO REPAIR BILLS THAT SHOW REPORT OF PROBLEM IN 2017. ONE IN MAY AND ONE IN NOVEMBER. SERVICE SAYS COMPUTER SHOULD CONFIRM PROBLEMS AND THAT IT IS HONDA, NOT HONDA DEALERS ULTIMATE PROBLEM.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR MY 2015 HONEY ODYSSEY ON JANUARY 2, 2018. I FIRST READ OF THE ISSUE IN THIS NOTICE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. HONDA STILL HAS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE AND THE FIX IS NOT TIMELY. HONDA HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE FOR MONTHS AND YET HAD FAILED TO CORRECT THE SEATS FROM LATCHING IMPROPERLY. FURTHERMORE, THIS IS THE SECOND SEAT RELATED RECALL WE HAVE HAD SINCE WE LEASED THIS VEHICLE IN JUNE 2015.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
HEADLIGHTS: WHEN THE VAN WAS PURCHASED I DISCOVERED SEVERAL DAYS LATER THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT WAS NOT WORKING. DISCOVERED THE LIGHTS WAS NOT PLUGGED IN. DECEMBER 18 & 27 THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM DISABLED. THE DEALERSHIP PICKED UP VAN AND SAID THEY REPAIRED. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A CONNECTION THAT WAS NOT SECURELY CLIPPED TOGETHER. WHEN THIS HAPPENED I HAD BEEN PARKED AND AWAY FROM THE VAN FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR ON BOTH OCCASIONS. WHEN I STARTED IT TO LEAVE THE ERROR MESSAGE WAS ON THE SCREEN. IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP BOTH TIMES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR CONSISTENTLY FAILS TO CLOSE. IT WILL START TO CLOSE, AND THEN HESITATE AND STOP AS IF SOMETHING WERE IN THE DOOR TO STOP IT, WHEN NOTHING IS. WE TYPICALLY HAVE TO TURN THE POWER OFF AND CLOSE IT MANUALLY TO MAKE IT SHUT. ALSO, WHEN PUTTING THE VAN INTO REVERSE, THE BACKUP CAMERA SCREEN OFTEN GOES BLACK, AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET OFF OF THE BLACK SCREEN IS TO SHUT THE VAN OFF COMPLETELY AND RESTART IT. WHEN USING THE AUTO-UP FEATURE ON THE FRONT DRIVER WINDOW, THE WINDOW WILL SOMETIMES GO BACK DOWN AS SOON AS YOU LET GO OF THE BUTTON. YOU HAVE TO HOLD THE BUTTON UNTIL IT COMPLETELY CLOSES. WHEN YOU HAVE THE REAR ENTERTAINMENT GOING THROUGH THE MAIN SPEAKERS AND YOU ATTEMPT TO CHANGE THE VOLUME WITH THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS, IT'LL ACTUALLY CHANGE THE SOURCE THAT THE SOUND IS COMING FROM. I THINK I'VE LISTED EVERYTHING, BUT THEY'RE ALL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS OBVIOUSLY. ALL OF THEM EXCEPT FOR VOLUME ISSUE HAPPEN RANDOMLY. THE VOLUME PROBLEM HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME. ALL OF THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THE VAN IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY.
