SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKE ROTORS - DO I REALLY NEED TO GO INTO DETAIL? 54,000 MILES AND FRONT ROTORS HAVE BEEN RESURFACED TWICE AND NOW THE REAR NEED IT AS WELL. SEVERE SHIMMYING/VIBRATION DURING BRAKING. OBVIOUSLY THIS CAUSES INCONSISTENT REACTION FORCES BETWEEN THE TIRE AND ROAD SURFACE THAT COULD CAUSE UNPREDICTABLE VEHICLE RESPONSE! DOES A CHILD NEED TO LOOSE THEIR LIFE BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED? DOES ANYONE READ THESE COMPLAINTS? IS HONDA DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS? HOW HAS THE NHTSA NOT PERFORMED AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS? COME GET MY VAN AND TRY IT OUT!

STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR OPENS UP AUTOMATICALLY AS THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE VAN IS SET TO LOCK ALL DOORS WHEN TAKEN OUT OF PARK. THE VAN DOESN'T GO INTO PARK THUS ALLOWING THE SLIDING DOOR TO OPEN. THIS IS THE SECOND ROW OF THE VAN WHERE MY CHILDREN SIT. WHEN IT HAS OPENED, ON ITS OWN, MY CHILD HAS BEEN SITTING THERE. THE DEALERSHIP CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THE DOOR TO OPEN OR WHY THE DOORS DON'T LOCK. *TR

HI, MY HONDA ODYSSEY EX HAS JUST 65000 MILES ON IT AND ALWAYS MAINTAINED VERY WELL. BUT SUDDENLY ENGINE BLINKING CHECK SIGN AND STEADY TRACTION CONTROL SIGN TURN ON. TOOK TO DEALER RIGHT AWAY AS I WAS JUST QUARTER MILE AWAY OF IT. DEALER SAYS IT IS CODE P0302 ISSUE AND THEY NEED TO REBUILD ENGINE AND REPLACE PISTON RINGS, SPARK PLUGS , ETC. ESTIMATED COST IS $5000/-. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW COME WELL MAINTAINED BRAND NAME CAR HAS ENGINE PROBLEM IN JUST 65K MILES?!! I NEVER HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA CARS. I ALSO FIND FROM GOOGLE THAT SOME 2013 MODEL DO HAD RECALL WITH SIMILAR TYPE ENGINE ISSUE BUT DEALER SAYS MY CAR IS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL. THIS IS A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE. DEALER SAYS AS WARRANTY EXPIRED JUST 6 MONTHS AGO, HONDA WILL COVER 85% REPAIR COST. I CAN SAY THIS IS STILL COSTLY REPAIR FOR ME. NOW HOW CAN I TRUST HONDA AND THIS CARE FOR RELIABILITY AS I NEED TO MAKE LONG DISTANCE FAMILY TRIPS???

SO RECENTLY MY 2017 HONDA CRV HAS A CRACK IN THE VERY LOWER BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD. IT WAS 23 DEGREES. I WAS DRIVING HOME 35 MILES PER HOUR, NO VEHICLES AROUND AND IT BEGAN CRACKING.I HAVE OWNED CRV'S ALL MY LIFE. I SAW ONLINE WHERE THIS IS HAPPENING QUITE FREQUENTLY AND FOR NO REASON. I CONTACTED YOU GUYS AND WAS TOLD THE WINDSHIELD IS 1700.00. THERE IS NO CHIP IN THE CRACK IT JUST STARTED SPREADING, WHICH TO ME MEANS THERE IS A FLAW IN THE DESIGN. I CONTACTED YOUR SERVICE DEPT. AND SPOKE WITH RANDY WHO IS THE ADVISOR. HE TOLD ME QUITE RUDELY , TO CONTACT HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE. I ASKED FOR THE NUMBER, WHICH ANY DECENT CORPORATION WILL PROVIDE OFF HAND AND HE TOLD ME IT IS LOCATED IN THE FRONT OF MY OWNERS MANUAL.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
ON THE US 2018 HONDA ODYSSEY MODEL, THERE IS NO LOW WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID WARNING. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS I FOUND THIS OUT ON A SLOPPY, SALTY WISCONSIN INTERSTATE NEXT TO A SEMI WITH MY WIFE AND KIDS IN THE VEHICLE. SALT ON A WINDSHIELD GIVES YOU ZERO VISIBILITY WITHOUT WASHER FLUID, AND LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE AND MAKE IT TO A GAS STATION TO FILL WITH WASHER FLUID WITHOUT INCIDENT. MY 2000 EXPLORER AND 2010 RAV4 HAVE LOW WASHER FLUID WARNING LIGHTS. WITH THE 1000S OF DOLLARS OF ACTIVE AND PASSIVE SAFETY FEATURES BUILT INTO THE ODYSSEY, CONSUMERS EXPECT THE INEXPENSIVE SIMPLE THINGS LIKE A LOW WASHER FLUID WARNING. THIS SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO RECALL.
