2013 Honda Odyssey

THE CAR PULLS TO LEFT AT SPEEDS ABOVE 60 MPH AND GET WORSE THE HIGHER THE SPEED. I AM FAMILIAR WITH HONDA ODYSSEY AS I HAVE OWNED THIS ONE SINCE 2003 AND IT HAS 180000 MILES. THIS NEW ONE DRIVES FINE IN TOWN AND AT SPEEDS 60 OR BELOW. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO DEALER AND THEY DID RE ALIGNMENT AND LOWERED TIRE PRESSURE TO 30 PSI BUT I LIKE TO RUN AT LEAST 35 PSI. CAN YOU LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM. I LOVE THE CAR OTHERWISE. IT IS NO FUN TO FIGHT A CAR TRYING TO PULL TO THE LEFT AT 75 MPH. IT IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. *JB

I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR WHEN THE VEHICLE WENT INTO A SUDDEN ACCELERATION WITH NO INPUT FROM ME. THE SPEED GOT PAST 75 WHEN I DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL AND HIT THE BRAKE. THE VEHICLE DID SLOW DOWN AND WHEN I RESET THE CRUISE CONTROL, IT HELD SPEED. JUST BEFORE THIS HAPPENED BY ABOUT 20 MINUTES, I NOTICED THAT THE SPEED I WAS TRAVELING WAS SLOWLY DECREASING SO I "BUMPED" UP THE SPEED WITH THE "ACC" BUTTON ON THE CRUISE CONTROL, NOTHING HAPPENED. SO I BUMPED IT UP A FEW MORE TIMES WITH NO EFFECT. I THEN CAME TO AN OVERPASS BRIDGE AND THE SPEED SLOWED DOWN TO 66 GOING UP THE BRIDGE AND WHEN OVER THE TOP, RAPIDLY ACCELERATED TO 75MPH, WHEN I GOT TO THE BOTTOM OF THE BRIDGE AND ON FLAT HIGHWAY, I WAS STILL TRAVELING AT 75. SO IT SEEMS THAT THE "SYSTEM" KNEW THAT I WAS TRYING TO BUMP UP THE SPEED BUT DIDN'T REACT UNTIL I WAS OVER THE BRIDGE. I DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL AND RESET IT AND IT HELD FOR 20 MINUTES BEFORE HAVING THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION, FEELING LIKE IT DOWNSHIFTED AND SPED UP RAPIDLY (AS IF I WAS TRYING TO PASS SOMEONE). I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TO BE CHECKED AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THAT NO CODES WERE IN THE SYSTEM. I FEEL THAT THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION IS SOMEHOW RELATED TO THE CRUISE CONTROL AS WELL AS THE NON-REACTION TO MY ATTEMPT AT ADJUSTING THE SPEED.

WE HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THE 2013 MODELS OF THIS VEHICLE DO NOT SOUND THE BEEPER IF THE DRIVER OR FRONT PASSENGER DOOR IS OPEN WHILE DRIVING. PAGE 77 OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL CLEARLY STATES "THE BEEPER SOUNDS AND THE INDICATOR COMES ON IF ANY DOOR OR THE TAILGATE IS OPEN WHILE DRIVING." WE HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND AMERICA HONDA AND THEY SAY THEY CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT THIS FEATURE NOT WORKING AS STATED IN THE MANUAL AND THE VEHICLE IS NOT DESIGNED TO ALERT THE DRIVER TO THIS HAZARD AS STATED IN THE MANUAL. THIS COULD BE QUITE DANGEROUS TO SMALLER INDIVIDUALS SHOULD SOMEONE BE DRIVING WITHOUT A DOOR COMPLETELY CLOSED. THIS ALSO MAKES ONE WONDER HOW MANY OTHER SAFETY FEATURES HONDA CLAIMS TO HAVE IN THEIR VEHICLES THAT DO NOT WORK AS THEY CLAIM AND HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE INJURY AND HONDA IS HIDING FROM THE CONSUMERS. *TR

2010 & 2013 HONDA ODYSSEY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO RADIO ISSUES IN BOTH VEHICLES. *SMD THE CONSUMER NO LONGER OWNS THE 2010 MODEL. HOWEVER, WHEN HE DID OWN THE VEHICLE, THE SIRUS XM SATELLITE RADIO WOULD CHANGE STATIONS ON ITS OWN, OVER A THREE YEAR PERIOD. DURING THAT PERIOD, TWO RADIOS WERE REPLACED, NUMEROUS RADIOS HARNESSES WERE ALSO REPLACED. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO A FAULTY SATELLITE RADIO SIGNAL. THE CONSUMER HAS SINCE PURCHASED A 2013 MODEL, AND IS CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING THE SAME RADIO PROBLEMS. THE RADIO WOULD CHANGE STATIONS, THEN IT WOULD READ NO DISC.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING WOULD AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE REPLICATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED HIM THAT THE HUMIDITY SENSOR ACTIVATED THE AIR CONDITIONER AUTOMATICALLY AND THAT THERE WAS NO REMEDY AVAILABLE FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 3,500.

AIR CONDITION IN THE VEHICLE COMES BY ITSELF AND GOES OFF AFTER CERTAIN TIME EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH IS OFF. WE GET COLD IN THE VEHICLE AND DOESN'T HAVE ANYWAY TO SWITCH IT OFF. DRIVER NEED TO SWITCH OFF FAN WHEN IT'S TOO COLD AND SWITCH ON THE FAN WHEN THE CABIN BECOMES HOT. HAVING DRIVERS MIND IN MAKING THIS MANUAL OPERATOR JOB, HE/SHE LOOSES THE CONCENTRATION ON THE ROAD. HAVING KIDS IN THE BACK THE CAR AND COMPLAINING ABOUT TEMPERATURE IS MOST ANNOYING THING FOR THE DRIVER AND MAKE DRIVER IRRITATING. THIS HAPPENS IN THE NEW HONDA VEHICLE IS UNBELIEVABLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE PARKING, THE VEHICLE SURGED FORWARD AND CRASHED INTO A GARAGE WITHOUT WARNING. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED HOWEVER, THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS INSPECTED BUT THERE WERE NO FAILURES DETECTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 940. *TR

A DEER RAN IN FRONT OF OUR 2013 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN, WE HIT THE DEER DEAD CENTER NEITHER HEADLIGHT WAS BROKEN HOWEVER, THE GRILL, AC CONDENSER, FAN, GRILL, BUMPER, HOOD, LOCK ASSEMBLY AND SECURITY SYSTEM , RADIATOR SUPPORT AND MANY OTHER PARTS WERE DAMAGED TOTALING $4263.06.
