ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY CHILDREN AND I ARE WHERE ON OUR WAY HOME ON THE THE HIGHWAY, WHEN OUR ODESSY VAN SUDDENLY TURNED OFF AS I WAS DRIVING(65 SPEED LIMIT). IT WENT FROM DRIVING TO GOING TO PARK AND SHUTTING DOWN, EVERYTHING WAS FLICKERING AND IT WOULDN'T TURN ON AND WOULDN'T ALLOW ME TO TURN ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS. I GET PUSHING THE STAR BUTTON AND IT WOULDN'T TURN ON UNTIL A FEW MINUTES LATER, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE AND HORRIBLY AS I HAD MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DVD PLAYER WILL NOT PLAY MOVIES. DVD PLAYER GETS EXTREMELY HOT. AUDIO THROUGHOUT ENTIRE VEHICLE EXPERIENCES A CONSTANT SNAPPING/CRACKLE NOISE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE VEHICLE IS MOVING OR STATIONARY. DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. PROBABLY DUE TO A PINCHED WIRE IN A HARNESS NEAR INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM. REPORTED TO DEALERSHIP. THEY REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE VEHICLE HAD BEEN DRIVEN OVER 35,000 MILES. SPENT $40,000 FOR A NEW VAN AND WITHIN FIRST YEAR WE NEED TO SPEND OUR MONEY TO REPAIR THEIR MISTAKE. SHAMEFUL.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED, THE HEAD UNIT MALFUNCTIONS AND STAYS ON, ESPECIALLY AFTER BEING USED FOR APPLE CAR PLAY. IT HAS LEFT US STRANDED AND HAD TO BE TOWED ONCE, TWO OTHER TIMES, JUMPED AS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE TRANSMISSION HAS ISSUES. BETWEEN 20-30 MPH, THE VEHICLE DISENGAGES WITH THE TRANSMISSION, LOSES POWER, THEN 'CLUNKS' BACK INTO GEAR. IT MAKES THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS UNSTEADY, AND CAUSES UNANTICIPATED SLOW DOWNS AND SPEED UPS. ADULT PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE HAVE YELLED OUT IN CONFUSION OVER THE LOSS OF POWER AND SPEED. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, IT SOMETIMES HESITATED TO GO INTO FIRST GEAR, AND THEN 'CLUNKS' INTO FIRST, EXPERIENCED AS A 'NEUTRAL DROP' AS IF ONE IS DRIVING A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. OVERALL, THE TRANSMISSION IS CLUNKY, AND LEADS TO UNEXPECTED VEHICLE MOVEMENTS, UNSTEADY FEEDBACK, AND EXTREME DISCOMFORT AND WORRY.

POWER TRAIN
WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 24 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHIFTS ERRATICALLY INTERMITTENTLY. A LOUD POP IS HEARD AND THE VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME THE PROBLEM IS BROUGHT TO THEIR ATTENTION OFTEN BY MANY CUSTOMERS, BUT THAT HONDA SAYS THE TRANSMISSION IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THE ISSUE WASN'T APPARENT FOR THE FIRST 15,000 MILES, BUT NOW IT HAPPENS ABOUT 1 OR 2 TIMES EVERY TIME I TAKE THE CAR OUT. THIS HAPPENS TYPICALLY WHEN YOU START FROM 0, EASE UP TO ABOUT 24 TO 26 MPH, TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE GAS FOR A COUPLE SECONDS, THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE AGAIN. IT WILL HESITATE, THEN POP/LUNGE. NOT EVERY TIME THOUGH. THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE IS MENTIONED IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN FLORIDA AND ALSO IN NUMEROUS MESSAGE BOARDS ONLINE.
