POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION FAILURE OCCURED WHEN DRIVING IN RT 5 FREEWAY PAST GLENDALE AND 134 JUNCTION, CAR WAS RUNNING IN ABOUT 60 MILES SPEED AND CAME ABRUPT STOP (LOSS OF DRIVE/PULL IN A VERY DANGEROUS WAY). MANAGED TO PUSH IT TO BREAKDOWN LANE. THEN UPON TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND AFTER A WHILE I COULD DRIVE A BIT TO PARK IN INTERNAL ROAD. I THEN TOWED THE CAR. LATER, I DROVE IN INTERNAL ROAD. SAME PROBLEM OCCURS. WHEN PLACED IN AUTOMATIC DRIVE (D) VEHICLE RUNS FOR FEW MILES AND SUDDENLY FAILS TO RUN AND STOPS. CHANGING GEAR DOESN'T HELP. WHEN IGNITION IS TURNED OFF AND ON BACK AGAIN, IT WORKS AGAIN FOR A MILE OR TWO AND SHOWS SAME PROBLEM. WHEN PROBLEM OCCURS, IT DOESN'T MOVE IN ANY GEARS. RESEARCHING IN INTERNET, HONDA 2004 ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION FAILURE OCCURRING AT 117,000 MILES WAS REPORTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET. AS IF IT WAS PROGRAMMED BY HONDA, THIS MINI VAN TOO FAILED AT 117K MILES. SOME OWNERS HAVE CLAIMED (INCLUDING YOUTUBE VIDEOS) THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE TAKEN CARE OF THE REPAIR AT NO COST. SOME ALSO CLAIM THAT HONDA HAS SECRET WARRANTY TO COVER THIS PROBLEM AND HAD AVAILED THE REPAIR FREE OF COST .THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM TO HONDA. HONDA MUST REPAIR FOR FREE AND DO THE JUSTICE TO CONSUMERS. THIS IS INDEED FATAL TOO.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
GOOD EVENING, I AM FILING A COMPLAINT AGAINST AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO. LAST YEAR, THE MANUFACTURER FAILED TO REMEDY THE ONGOING AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION RECALL 04V-176. BRAMAN HONDA IN MIAMI, FLORIDA DID NOT INSPECT THE TRANSMISSION AS REQUIRED AND LIED ON THEIR WORK ORDER THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS BAD. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOOK 7 HOURS WITH MY VAN. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED. MY TRANSMISSION WAS IN WORKING CONDITION WHEN IT TAKEN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT LAST YEAR. I AM CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING THE ISSUES THAT THE RECALL WARNS THAT MAY HAPPEN DUE TO THE ONGOING GEAR ISSUES. LAST WEEK, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY VAN'S TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP AND I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME SAFELY. I RELY ON MY VAN FOR WORK THEREFORE THIS MATTER IS AFFECTING US FINANCIALLY. MY WIFE RECENTLY CALLED THE MANUFACTURER'S RECALL HOTLINE AND SPOKE WITH LISA. THE REP ADVISED THAT I WILL HAVE TO TOW MY VAN AND PAY OUT OF POCKET, FOR THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO EVALUATE THIS ISSUE. SINCE THE MANUFACTURER FAILED TO REMEDY THIS RECALL LAST YEAR, I AM REQUESTING THE FOLLOWING: I WOULD LIKE FOR AN ENGINEER OR MECHANIC TO BE DISPATCHED TO OUR HOME AND CHECK THE TRANSMISSION. ONCE THE MATTER IS ASSESSED, THEN I CAN PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR MY VEHICLE TO BE TOWED TO A NEARBY AUTHORIZED HONDA DEALER FOR SERVICE. LISA EXPLAINED TO MY WIFE THAT THERE IS A 50/50 CHANCE THAT THIS TRANSMISSIONRECALL ISSUE WILL ACTUALLY BE REPAIRED WHICH IS UNACCEPTABLE. I CURRENTLY LIVE IN FLORIDA WHICH IS THE THIRD STATE WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNT OF COVID-19 CASES THEREFORE THIS WOULD BE THE MOST FEASIBLE OPTION. LAST YEAR'S CASE WITH THE MANUFACTURER WAS CLOSED PREMATURELY EVEN THOUGH MY WIFE ADVISED IT WAS STILL ONGOING. WITH THAT SAID, DUE TO BRAMAN HONDA'S NEGLIGENCE, I AM CURRENTLY WITHOUT A VEHICLE SINCE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IT IN THIS CONDITION. THANK YOU. *JS

AFTER THE SLIDING DOOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE STOPPED WORKING, WE WAS STILL ABLE TO SWITCH OFF THE SWITCH AND OPEN/CLOSE IT MANUALLY A FEW TIMES. THE FOLLOWING MORNING TRYING TO DO THE SAME THING IT ONLY OPENED HALFWAY AND THEN WOULDNT LATCH CLOSED AS I TRIED THE SECOND TIME TO GET IT TO LATCH CLOSED THE WHOLE DOOR JUST FELL OFF TRACK. LUCKILY IT HAPPENED SITTING IN MY MOMS DRIVEWAY. I WOULD HATE TO HAVE SEEN WHAT WOULD HAD HAPPENED HAD I BEEN DRIVING WHEN IT CAME OFF SINCE MY 4 YEAR OLDS SEAT IS RIGHT THERE.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION INFORMING ME OF THE RECALL, AND STATING IN THE LETTER "FREE RENTAL CARS ARE AVAILABLE TO THE VEHICLE OWNER FOR THE DAY OF THE RECALL REPAIR, OR LONGER IF A REPLACEMENT PART IS TEMPORARILY UNAVAILABLE." I CALLED A LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO ARRANGE THE RECALL REPAIR AND WAS INFORMED THEY DON'T OFFER THE FREE RENTAL CAR SERVICE. I CALLED HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION TO ENQUIRER ABOUT THIS SERVICE. THEY TOOK MY INFORMATION AND WILL HAVE AN ANSWER FOR ME WITHIN 24-48 HOURS I CAN EXPECT A CALLBACK WITH AN AUTHORIZATION SERVICE. THE WAY THE LETTER IS WORDED IMPLIES A FREE RENTAL IS AVAILABLE, NO WHERE IN THE LETTER DOES IT STIPULATE UPON DEALER APPROVAL, OR ANY FINE PRINT INDICATING ANY STIPULATIONS AROUND THE FREE CAR RENTAL. FROM THE LETTER, I EXPECT A LOANER WHILE REPAIRS ARE PERFORMED, YET HONDA HAS TO AUTHORIZE THIS. THE DEALER INFORMED ME TO BRING THE LETTER IN WITH ME BUT I CAN'T TAKE THE TIME TO TRAVEL THERE IN CASE I'LL BE DENIED A RENTAL. MY JOB REQUIRES I TRAVEL PERIODICALLY, AND IF SUCH ARISES WHILE MY VEHICLE IS BEING REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL, I WILL NEED A LOANER. I WILL BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE A SCAN OF THE LETTER IF NEEDED BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T HAVE A SCANNER AT WORK.

OUR 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY DRIVER SIDE SEAT BROKE FROM THE BRACKET. THE WELDS THAT HOLD THE SEAT TO THE BRACKET BROKE CAUSING THE SEAT TO START TILTING AND WOBBLING WHILE WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING INCREASING RISK OF COLLISIONS.
