2010 Honda Odyssey

SHORTLY INTO A SHORT TRIP (~5MI) ON LOCAL STREETS, SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE FRONT HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED IMMEDIATELY AND 911 CALLED. THE EMERGENCY TEAM ARRIVED QUICKLY, BUT FIRE WAS NOTICED IN THE FRONT HOOD EVEN BEFORE THEY SHOWED UP. THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT BUT THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AS THE FRONT HOOD WAS ALMOST COMPLETE FRIED. THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND HAD ABOUT 83000 MILES ON IT. BEFORE THIS INCIDENT, NO WARNING SIGN OR OTHER INDICATIONS WERE NOTICED.

I BOUGHT THIS HONDA FOR 4,300 AND THE GUY SOLD IT TO ME WITH 90,000 MILES BUT I FOUND OUT THAT THE SPEED ODOMETER WAS CHANGED AND IT ACTUALLY HAS 228K MILES. WHEN I RECIEVED THE TITLE IT SAID THE ODOMETER WAS CHANGED BUT THEY NEVER TOLD ME ANYTHING WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND THEY DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I BOUGHT THE VAN IN DALLAS TEXAS IN A DEALER.

THIS VEHICLE SPEED FROM 50 TO 70 MILES IF TAKE BRAKE THE CAR VIBRATE, THAT START FROM AROUND 30,000 MILES. AFTER FIXED IT, ABOUT 5,000 MILES, VIBRATE AGAIN. NOW THE TOTAL MILEAGE IS 79,300, ALREADY FIXED 3 TIMES. I FOUND HONDA ALL CAR MODEL HAS THE SAME ISSUE (ALL MY FRIENDS' DIFFERENT HONDA CAR MODELS) . ANOTHER PROBLEM IS WHEN DRIVE FEELING A STRONG VIBRATION IN STEERING WHEEL WHEN ACCELERATION FEELING FROM THIS APRIL 2017. LAST WEEK JUST FIXED IT, DEALER CHANGED BOTH SIDE OF DRIVESHAFT ASSY-. CAR DEALER TALKED TO ME MANUFACTURE USED THE BAD PARTS MAY FROM 2008 TO 2012.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING 65MPH DOWN THE INTERSTATE, MY SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED. THE PHOTOS THAT WERE TAKEN AFTER THIS INCIDENT INDICATE THE GLASS IS BOWED OUTWARD AS THOUGH IT WERE SUCKED FROM THE VEHICLE. THIS WAS NOT THE RESULT OF SOMETHING IMPACTING THE CAR. THERE WAS NO OBJECT FOUND IN OR AROUND THE VEHICLE ON THE SUNROOF COVER. THE COVER ITSELF WAS NOT DAMAGED, ALSO DEMONSTRATING THAT THIS WAS AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION. IF THE SHADE HAD NOT BEEN CLOSED, I COULD'VE EASILY BEEN KILLED, OR AT THE VERY LEAST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. THIS COULD KILL SMALL CHILDREN AND CAUSE MANY OTHER ACCIDENTS.

VEHICLE JERKED LIGHTLY EACH AND EVERY TIME I STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE VIBRATION IS MORE OBVIOUSLY WHEN VEHICLE CHANGED FROM STOP TO MOTION. HOWEVER, THE VIBRATION CAN STILL BE PERCEIVED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE FASTER THE CAR IS IN MOTION, THE LESS VIBRATION PERCEIVED. THE CAR RUNS SMOOTHLY IF IT IS RUNNING AT THE SPEED 60MPH OR MORE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CAR USED LIGHTLY, PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND ONLY HAS 35K ON IT. OIL CHANGES PERFORMED REGULARLY EVERY 3K, AIR FILTER CHANGED YEARLY. *TR

STOPPED IN A SERVICE ROAD AROUND A PARKING LOT WAITING FOR CROSS TRAFFIC TO CLEAR. FOOT WAS ON BRAKE. VEHICLE ENGINE BEGAN RACING. PRESSED HARDER ON BRAKE TO HOLD VEHICLE BACK TO PREVENT HITTING CAR IN FRONT OF ME. PUT VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL TO STOP FROM GOING FORWARD. TURNED OFF IGNITION SWITCH. STARTED VEHICLE AND PROBLEM WENT AWAY. I OPERATE THE BRAKE AND GAS ONLY WITH MY RIGHT FOOT. I CANNOT PRESS THE GAS WHILE MY RIGHT FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE. THIS VAN EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION. DAY WAS SUNNY AND ABOUT 65F.

I HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP IN MY VAN. I WAS NOT AWARE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FOR THE PROBLEM IN MY 2010 YEAR VAN. I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR MY PROBLEM. I ALSO HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH SIDE POWER SLIDING DOORS WITHIN THE LAST YEAR OR TWO AND THEY ARE BOTH GOING TO NEED REPAIR AGAIN AS THE DOORS WILL NOT STAY CLOSED. THEY CLOSE ALL THE WAY AND THEN POP BACK OPEN LEAVING THEM ON AND THE OPEN DOOR SOUND INDICATORS REMAINS ON. ALSO WHEN TURNING, THE DOOR WILL CLOSE AND THEN OPEN BACK UP CREATING AIR TO COME THROUGH THE OPENINGS. IT IS VERY ANNOYING AND VERY UNSAFE FOR OUR FAMILY TO TRAVEL IN. WE CAN'T EVEN TURN THE POWER OFF AND COMPLETELY CLOSE THE DOOR WITHOUT IT POPPING BACK OPEN. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM HONDA ABOUT A RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP PROBLEM.
