ENGINE
I HAVE A 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY AND I HAD TO HAVE THE FRONT AND REAR MOTOR MOUNTS REPLACED LAST YEAR IN FEB 2014. THE CAR ONLY HAD 67000 MILES. WELL, IT HAS BEEN LESS THAT 2 YEARS AND THE MOUNTS HAVE GONE BAD AGAIN. I HAVE SEEN MANY SITES THAT HAVE COMPLAINTS OF THIS BEING MAJOR PROBLEM BUT HONDA DOES NOT WANT TO DO A RECALL. LAST TIME IT COST ME OVER $500 FOR THE 2 AND THIS TIME THE COST WILL BE ABOUT THE SAME. I HAVE NOT CONTACTED HONDA YET BUT WILL DO SO TOMORROW. ALSO, I HAD THE TIMING BELT AND TENSIONER REPLACED IN FEB 2014 AS WELL AND NOW THE WATER PUMP, TIMING BELT AND TENSIONER NEED REPLACEMENT AGAIN. THEY SIT NEXT TO THE MOTOR MOUNT AND I AM WONDERING IF THE BAD MOUNT IS ALSO DAMAGING THE WATER PUMP, ETC....

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
HONDA ODYSSEY 2007 MODEL IS HAVING A RECALL ON VSA WITH SERVICE BULLETIN 13-098 ON MALFUNCTION OF VSA IN THE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE WAS PERFORMED THIS RECALL IN 2014. NOW MY VEHICLE IS STARTED SHOWING "! VSA" ORANGE LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD. HONDA OF FREEHOLD DEALER (WWW.HONDAOFFREEHOLD.COM) PERFORMED THE DIAGNOSTIC ($136 CHARGED) AND TOLD ME THAT ABS/VSA CONTROL UNIT PART NUMBER 57110-SHJ-A61 IS BAD AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. COST OF THIS PART IS $1117.50 AND THE QUOTED SERVICE CHARGE IS $256.00. MY VEHICLE IS JUST COMPLETED 37,000 MILES. WHEN I SEARCH THE WEB FOR "VSA MODULATOR UNIT" FAILURE IN ODYSSEY. THERE ARE MANY CUSTOMERS REPORTED THE FAILURE OF THIS PART. HONDA IS SELLING DEFECTIVE PARTS IN THEIR VEHICLES. THIS PART IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND FAILED WITH VERY LESS MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE AND MANY OF THE CUSTOMERS REPORTED FAILURES. PLEASE TAKE AN ACTION REGARDING THIS DEFECTIVE PART IN THE HONDA VEHICLES. HONDA NEED TO PAY THE PART AND SERVICE FOR THIS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER 10V098000 FOR VSA MODULATOR. I WENT TO DEALER TO FIX THIS RECALL AROUND IN 2014 AND NOW MY ODYSSEY IS GETTING "! VSA" LIGHT ON DASHBOARD. I CHECKED THE CODE AND CODE IS "DTC 66: VSA PRESSURE SENSOR INSIDE VSA MODULATOR CONTROL UNIT". DEALER IS SAYING VSA MODULATOR IS FAILED AND REPLACEMENT COST IS ~$1500. HONDA SOLD DEFECTIVE PART ON THIS VEHICLES AND THERE WERE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT VSA FAILURES ON THIS VEHICLES. MY ODYSSEY IS ONLY 37,000 MILEAGE. THIS VSA MODULATOR CONTROLS ABS ALSO AND WE ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE STABILITY OF THE VEHICLE WITH THE FAILURE OF THIS MODULE. PLEASE FIND THE PHOTO OF THE DTC CODE READ BY THE AUTO SHOP. FIXING THIS MODULE IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND HONDA SHOULD PAY FOR SELLING THE DEFECTIVE ITEMS WHICH ARE MAINLY SAFETY CONCERNS.

STEERING
THE CAR HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY HARD TO STEER OVER THE LAST TWO TO THREE YEARS TO THE POINT THAT IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN IT INTO PARKING SPOTS OR OTHER AREAS AT LOW SPEEDS. MY WIFE FEELS PARTICULARLY UNSAFE ABOUT DRIVING IT LIKE THIS, AS SHE IS AFRAID SHE WILL HIT ANOTHER CAR OR OBJECT RELATED TO THE INABILITY TO TURN WITHOUT MANUALLY OVERPOWERING THE STEERING WHEEL. IN CHECKING FOR A RECALL, I NOTED THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE OTHER CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS WITH SIMILAR ISSUE. PLEASE ADDRESS AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU. FOR ONSET DATE, THIS IS A GRADUALLY WORSENING ISSUE. I WOULD SAY THAT I FIRST NOTICED SLIGHT INCREASED RESISTANCE ABOUT 3-4 YEARS AGO. IT HAS WORSENED TO THE POINT THAT IT IS NOW A MAJOR RESISTANCE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN AT LOW/MINIMAL SPEED. *TR

POWER TRAIN
THE "D" / DRIVE LED STARTED BLINKING SEVERAL TIMES AT AROUND 104.660 MILES. SO FAR NO OTHER FAULT LED WAS FLASHING. HOWEVER I DISCOVERED SINCE A WHILE THAT THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY HARD WHEN DRIVING SLOWER AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS FROM 3RD GEAR TO 2ND GEAR. THE HONDA TECHNICIAN HOWEVER TOLD ME THAT THIS ROUGH SHIFTING IS NOT AN ISSUE.

STEERING
THIS VEHICLE IS VERY HARD TO STEERING WHEN IT STOPS OR IN LOW SPEED. I TALKED WITH HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY CLAIMED THAT IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. HOWEVER, I FOUND THERE ARE LOTS OF SAME PROBLEMS DESCRIBED ON-LINE. I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE A SERVICE RECALL ON THIS ISSUE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE POWER WINDOWS ARE NOT ROLLING DOWN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THE BACK WINDOWS. ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOWS ARE GETTING ROLLED DOWN. WE LIVE IN FLORIDA AND DURING THE DAY TIME, IT IS VERY HOT AND NEEDS TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS TO ESCAPE FROM THE EXTREME HEAT. BUT BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT. IT IS BECOMING DIFFICULT WITH THE KIDS. I SEE SIMILAR ISSUE HAPPENING WITH MOST OF THE HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS.
