ON NOVEMBER 2015 WE WERE TRAVELING BACK FROM VACATION. AS WE STOPPED FOR A BATHROOM BREAK WE OPENED THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR OPENED AND IT WOULD NOT CLOSE BACK. . IT TOOK SEVERAL HOURS TO GET THE DOOR BACK ON TRACK IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE SHUT. THE DOOR THEN DID NOT OPEN, CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY I COULD BOT USE THE DOOR TO GET MY CHILDREN OUT. THE END OF FEBRUARY 2016, WHILE DROPPING THE CHILDREN OFF AT A BABYSITTER, THE DRIVER REAR PASSENGER DOOR OPENED AND AGAIN WOULD NOT CLOSE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A SHOP WHERE I HAD TO REPLACE THE CABLE, THE MOTOR AND OTHER COMPONENTS. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE.

STRUCTURE:BODY
AROUND 10:30 AM ON WEDNESDAY, 1/13/16, DRIVER-SIDE SLIDING DOOR WOULD KEEP OPENING UP "COMPLETELY VOLUNTARILY" WHEN THE VEHICLE (2005 HONDA ODYSSEY EX) WAS IN MOTION AND BEING OPERATED ON A LOCAL FREEWAY. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO CLOSE THE DOOR EITHER USING THE REMOTE/AUTOMATIC DOOR-CLOSING SWITCH BY THE STEERING WHEEL OR MANUALLY (UPON STOPPING THE VEHICLE ON THE ROADSIDE) WOULD NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE SLIDING DOOR KEPT OPENING UP "VOLUNTARILY" ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS PUT BACK IN MOTION / DRIVE MODE (ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE). THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE DRIVEN BACK HOME, ITS NORMAL PARKING LOCATION, WITH THE SLIDING DOOR OPEN DURING THE DRIVE (APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES FROM HOME).

DEALER SAID 2 ENGINE MOUNTS BAD. THE FRONT ONE, IS OVER $500 JUST FOR THE PART. TWO ISSUES: HOW WAS IT DETERMINED THIS PART WAS BAD AND WITH SUCH A SIGNIFICANT PRICE FOR ONE OF THEM (THERE ARE TWO ON THIS MODEL), I TAKE ISSUE WITH THE OBVIOUSLY FLAWED DESIGN. I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING LEGAL ACTION REFERENCING BOTH THE ABOVE ISSUES. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS A FAULT DESIGN TO DRIVE SERVICE SALES LATER IN THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

HONDA'S HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH PAINT PEELING ON BLUE CARS HONDA EXTENDED THE WARRANTY BY TWO YEARS FOR MY 2005 HONDA ODYSSEY I WAS NOT AWARE THAT HONDA WAS COVERING THE PAINT ISSUE I WAS NOT AWARE THAT HONDA HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY I AM FAIRLY SURE THAT THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM WAS AWARE THAT I PURCHASED A VEHICLE THAT POTENTIALLY HAD A PAINT ISSUE AND THAT IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HONDA OF LISLE (ILLINOIS) SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE PROACTIVE IN SEEKING OUT AND COVERING THIS ISSUE

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ON SATURDAY AUGUST 1, 2015, I WAS ON MY WAY FROM THE AIRPORT WITH THREE OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS WHEN THE VAN SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. UPON SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO RESTART IT, THE VAN WOULD CRANK, BUT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. MY FUEL GAUGE AND LIGHT WERE NOT INDICATING NO FUEL (WHICH WAS THE FIRST THING THAT THE OFFICER WHO ASSISTED IN PUSHING THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD LOOKED AT). THE LOCAL AUTO REPAIR SHOP RAN A DIAGNOSTICS ON THE VEHICLE AND DECIDED THAT ALL THE VEHICLE'S SIX CYLINDERS WERE MIS-FIRING DUE TO LOW FUEL PRESSURE (5PSI) AND THAT I NEEDED A NEW FUEL PUMP. THE LAST TIME I HAD DRIVEN THE VAN PRIOR TO AUGUST 1, WAS JULY 21, 2015 WHEN I TOOK IT TO HONDA DEALER FOR THE FUEL PUMP FILTER REPLACEMENT (THE VEHICLE HAD 147,504 MILES ON IT LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP). THE DEALER CALLED TO TELL ME THAT THE REASON WHY THE VEHICLE STOPPED WAS THAT I HAD RUN OUT OF FUEL. I ASKED HOW THE CYLINDER MISFIRINGS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT CAME ON EARLIER ON AUGUST 1ST WAS RELATED TO AN EMPTY TANK, THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT THEY WERE RELATED. BUT HE SAID HE COULD NOT PROMISE THAT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT STALL AGAIN BECAUSE ALL THE FUEL PUMP PART COULD BE GETTING OLD AND FAILING. NOW, ABOUT THE FUEL GAUGE THAT "FAILED" TO WORK AFTER THE FUEL PUMP RECALL WORK WAS DONE, THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND CLAIMED THAT THEIR TECHNICIAN RECHECKED WHAT HE DID ON JULY 21ST AND FOUND NO PROBLEM WITH IT. FURTHERMORE, IT APPEARS THAT THE PROBLEM WITH THE 2005 ODYSSEY FUEL PUMP IS DEEPER THAN THE "FILTER" REPLACEMENT PATCH THAT HONDA HAS IMPROVISED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. PLEASE HELP US GO AFTER HONDA OF AMERICA TO DO THE RIGHT THING BY REPLACING ALL DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMPS AND NOT JUST THE FUEL PUMP FILTER.
