STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THE CONSUMER STATES THAT THE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOORS HAD FAILED TO SHUT COMPLETELY WHICH CAUSED A BUZZER TO CONTINUOUSLY GO OFF AND THE CABIN LIGHTS TO STAY ON. (WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURED, THE CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO SEE AS SHE DROVE DOWN A DIRT ROAD, AND ALMOST DROVE INTO A DTICH) THE CONSUMER HAD GOTTEN THE ENTIRE MECHANISM REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY BUT IS SCARED THAT WHEN THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT, THE OTHER DOOR WILL FAIL AS WELL, AND FEELS THAT HONDA SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL. *SCC

I AM FAMILIAR WITH A LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO DEMAND A RECALL OF THESE VEHICLES. THE DEALERS KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT ARE MISLEADING CONSUMERS BY DENYING ANY KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH ISSUES.THIS IS A BLATANT MISREPRESENTATION OF THE TRUTH, AND THE MANUFACTURER ALONG WITH THE DEALERS ARE DECEIVING OWNERS ABOUT THE TRANS. PROBLEMS. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED. *AK

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
WHEN THE ELECTRIC SLIDING DOOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE CLOSES IT WILL NOT LATCH SECURELY. YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY PUSH IT IN ORDER FOR IT TO LATCH. SEVERAL 2000 ODYSSEYS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS SYMTOM, HOWEVER, MINE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. DEALERSHIP WILL NOT MAKE A GOODWILL REPAIR. A CASE HAS BEEN OPENED WITH HONDA BUT THEY STATE IF THEY APPROVE REIMBURSMENT FOR REPAIR IT WILL ONLY BE PARTIAL.

PASSENGER SIDE SLIDER PERIODICALLY STICKS, SOMETIMES DIFFICULT TO OPEN, SOMETIMES IMPOSSIBLE. WORSE IN COLD WEATHER. SOMETIMES WILL UN-LATCH PARTIALLY, CAUSING DOOR AJAR LIGHT TO COME ON. DEALER HAS FIXED THIS PROBLEM SEVERAL TIMES BY LUBRICATING THE SEALS, GIVING A TEMPORARY FIX. IN FREEZING WEATHER NEITHER SLIDER WILL OPEN. AT ONE POINT BOTH DOORS DEVELOPED DENTS FROM THE INSIDE OUT, THAT THE DEALER REPAIRED AS A WARRENTY SERVICE. NOW SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS TOLD ME THAT LUBRICATING THE SEALS WILL HAVE TO BE A REGULAR SERVICE, WHICH I FIND UNACCEPTABLE AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR PASSENGERS RIDING IN THE CAR WHO COULD BE TRAPPED INSIDE. WE ALSO HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER DOOR LOCKS THAT THE DEALER FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. (CAR IS LX MODEL, MANUAL SLIDING DOORS)
