2010 Honda Odyssey

2010 ODYSSEY W/ ABOUT 70K MILES. ENGINE STARTED MISFIRING. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS, BUT HONDA IS SAYING IT EXPIRED, AND I AM NOT ELIGIBLE FOR COST COVERAGE, AND THE REPAIRS ONLY HAVE A 50% CHANCE OF FIXING THE ISSUE. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 2019, AND THEY SAY THE RECALL EXPIRED 8 YEARS AFTER MAKE YEAR. I WAS DRIVING MY FAMILY TO THE BEACH AND IT BEGAN STRUGGLING TO ACCELERATE. WHITE SMOKE WAS COMING OUT EXHAUST. *TR

RADIATOR FAN RUNNING AND ALARM GOING OFF WITHOUT KEY IN IGNITION. REAR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW GOING DOWN ON IT'S OWN WHEN CAR IS ON. TO GET WINDOW UP I HAVE TO OPEN DRIVER'S DOOR AND ROLL WINDOW UP AND LOCK IT FOR IT TO STAY UP. HAVE TO KEEP DRIVER'S SEATBELT ON ALL THE TIME TO PREVENT ALARM TO GO OFF. WENT DEALER AND THEY CHARGE A LOT OF MONEY AND COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM AND NEEDED MORE TIME TO FIGURE IT OUT IN WHICH I WOULD BE BILLED A WHOLE LOT MORE. I REFUSED TO PAY MORE . VERY FRUSTRATED AND FED UP WITH THE PROBLEMS ON THIS CAR.

VAN WILL START PERIODICALLY. BUT THE NEXT DAY THE BATTERY WILL BE DEAD & HAS BEEN JUMPED OFF WITH JUMP BOX & OTHER VEHICLES ASSIST. BUT BATTERY IS NEW, TERMINALS CLEANED. VAN WILL NOT EVEN MAKE A CLICKING SOUND. I FEEL THAT THERE IS EVIDENCE OF FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH, STARTER RELAY OR PARKED/NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH & MAYBE MORE DEPENDING ON CHASSIS ELECTRICAL. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO STATIONARY UNTIL THE NEXT MORNING.THIS HAPPENS TO BE MY WIFE'S VEHICLE... NEED THIS FIXED ASAP..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR FAILED TO LOCK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BIANCHI HONDA (LOCATED AT 8430 PEACH ST, ERIE, PA 16509,(814) 868-9678) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE GEAR ON THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED IN JULY OF 2019. ON SEPTEMBER 19, 2019, WHEN THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BUTTON TO OPEN THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR, THE CONTACT REACHED INSIDE THE SLIDING DOOR AS IT STARTED TO CLOSE. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A FRACTURED LEFT RIB AND INJURIES TO THE UPPER RIGHT BACK AND SHOULDER. THERE WAS ALSO PAIN ON THE CONTACT'S RIGHT CALF. THE CONTACT SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION AND WAS BREATHING IN A MACHINE FOR HER LUNGS NOT TO COLLAPSE. SHE ALSO VISITED AN ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON FOR THE MUSCLES IN HER BACK AND SHOULDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

NOT LONG AFTER WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A HONDA DEALERSHIP (ONE PREVIOUS OWNER) THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR STARTED FREEZING UP. WE COULD NEITHER OPEN NOR CLOSE IT PROPERLY. WHEN WE BROUGHT IT IN, WE WERE SHOCKED WHEN THE MECHANIC TOLD US HE SAW THE PROBLEM ALL THE TIME ON THAT MODEL, AND THAT WE WERE LUCKY THE DOOR HAD NOT FALLEN OFF ON US, BECAUSE HE HAD SEEN IT HAPPEN TO OTHERS. WE HAVE THREE LITTLE KIDS...MOST MINIVAN OWNERS HAVE YOUNG KIDS! THEY REPLACED THE CHEAP PLASTIC ROLLERS WITH MORE CHEAP PLASTIC ROLLERS (WHY OF WHY IS THIS HONDA'S ONLY OPTION TO SUPPORT A HUGE, HEAVY STEEL DOOR?!) AND REMOVED THE AUTOMATIC MECHANISM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. NOW WE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE AUTOMATIC DOOR. IT IS COMPLETELY FROZEN (AT THIS POINT IT'S FROZEN WHETHER IT'S IN AUTOMATIC MODE OR MANUAL), AND I HAVE LEFT IT SHUT THAT WAY BECAUSE I WOULD RATHER HAVE MY KIDS CLIMB IN THE OTHER SIDE, AND BUCKLE MY 4 YEAR OLD IN THROUGH THE WINDOW, THAN TRY TO OPEN IT AND RISK HAVING IT FALL ON SOMEONE. I HAVE SPOKEN TO OTHER MOTHERS IN MY TOWN WHO OWN THIS SAME CAR AND HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE DOORS. THIS IS NOT JUST AN INCONVENIENCE, IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE! WHAT IF BOTH DOORS FROZE ON SOMEONE DURING AN ACCIDENT AND THEY COULDN'T GET THEIR KIDS OUT? WHAT IF THE DOOR FELL OFF ON A CHILD?! AN ADULT MIGHT SUFFER ONLY MINOR INJURIES FROM SUCH A THING, BUT A CHILD WOULD BE CRUSHED. THERE ARE REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING ALL OVER THE INTERNET, WITH HONDA USUALLY TELLING THE OWNERS THE PROBLEM IS SOMEHOW THEIR FAULT. TOYOTA HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE SIENNA AND THEY DID A RECALL. WHY HAS HONDA NOT YET BEEN REQUIRED TO DO THE SAME?! HERE YOU CAN READ JUST SOME OF THE STORIES FROM OTHER ODYSSEY OWNERS: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-C3864_DS475308.

WHILE DRIVING TO TEXAS FROM ST. LOUIS OUR VAN SUDDENLY DIED ON INTERSTATE 44. IT HAPPENED AT 1AM. WE CALLED USAA FOR HELP. THEY GOT US TO A REPAIR SHOP. WE LEARNED THE POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKED CAUSING THE ALTERNATOR TO DIE. WE HAD ZERO POWER ON THE INTERSTATE AND MY FAMILY OF 5 WAS IN DANGER. WE LEARNED AT THE SHOP THE POWER STEERING WAS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY INSTEAD OF RECALL. THIS CAUSED OUR VAN TO DIE ON THE INTERSTATE AND PUT MY FAMILY IN IMMEDIATE RISK OF DEATH. WE WERE NOT TOLD OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE HONDA INFORMED US THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO. THE REPAIR SHOP IN OKLAHOMA CITY THAT FIXED OUR ALTERNATOR TOLD US THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL AND WE WERE PUT AT RISK. PLEASE REVIEW AND MAKE THE CALL FOR A RECALL INSTEAD OF AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. MY CHILDREN WERE CRYING AND CLEARLY SHAKEN BY THE ENTIRE EVENT. HAD AN 18 WHEELER PASSED US AT THE TIME, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE SEEN US AND SURELY WOULD HAVE KILLED US ALL.
