2016 Honda Odyssey

AUTOMATIC WINDOWS, SUN ROOF, BACK DOOR OPEN BY THEMSELVES, AND STAY OPEN; HAPPENED SEVERAL NIGHTS. EXTREME DANGER EXISTS IF DRIVING. NIGHT PHOTOS OF WINDOWS, ETC. OPENING NOT AVAILABLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE PARKED AT OUR HOUSE: ONCE ON THE FLAT ROAD IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE AND TWO TIMES ON OUR HOMES HILLSIDE PARKING (VAN FACING UPWARD SLIGHTLY). IN PARK, THE WINDOWS AND DOORS OF ALL OF OUR CARS ARE ALWAYS CLOSED AS WE LIVE ON THE COAST AND THERE'S NO TELLING WHEN IT GOING TO RAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDOWS CONTINUED TO ROLL UP AND DOWN ON THEIR OWN. THE DEALER LUBRICATED THE WINDOWS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

I BOUGHT A NEW 2016 HONDA ODYSSEY WITH CONTINENTAL CONTIPROCONTACTS P235/65/R17 THAT CAME ON THE VEHICLE WHEN PURCHASED. I HAVE 14,537 MILE ON THEM WHEN PASSENGER REAR TIRE COMPLETELY BLEW OUT BOTH INNER AND OUTER SIDE WALLS GOING APPROX. 35MPH ON CITY STREET WITH 64 DEGREE OUTSIDE AIR TEMP. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A TIRE DO SUCH A THING. I WOULD NEVER USE THESE TIRES AGAIN. I FEEL THAT THESE TIRES JEOPARDIZE MY FAMILIES SAFETY. THE ISSUE IS NOT HONDA IT WITH CONTINENTAL AS THEY DID NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT STATING THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ROAD HAZARD INSURANCE WHICH IS A SCAM IN ITS SELF. TELL ME WHY I NEED TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL INSURANCE BECAUSE THEY MANUFACTURE POOR QUALITY PRODUCTS. I HAVE NEVER HAD PROBLEMS IN MY 30 YEARS OF DRIVING WILL STAY WITH MICHELIN.

PURCHASED NEW 2016 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN IN MD IN DECEMBER 2016. 150 MILES INTO OUR TRIP HOME TO NC, JUST AFTER WASHINGTON DC, WE HIT STOP AND GO TRAFFIC ON I-95. THE TRANSMISSION STARTED MAKING CLUNKING SOUND AND SHUDDERING WHEN TRYING TO GO FROM 1ST TO 2ND (MULTIPLE TIMES). YOU FELT VAN WAS GOING TO BREAK AND THAT YOU HAD NO ACCELERATION. PULLED OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURNED OFF CAR ? NOTHING WAS NOTICEABLE. WENT TO NEAREST DEALER THAT WAS 5 MILES AWAY. TOLD THIS CAN BE NORMAL, AS VAN COMPUTER NEEDS TO LEARN DRIVING HABITS. LEFT DEALERSHIP, TRAFFIC WAS AGAIN STOP AND GO. WITHIN 5 MILES HAD SAME NOISE AND SHUDDERING, BUT THIS TIME GOT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND FLASHING "D" ON DASH. REPEATED AGAIN FOR 3RD TIME ON RETURN TO SAME DEALER. THEY EXAMINED CAR FOR 2 HOURS. CHECK ENGINE CODE WAS: P0796 - A/T CLUTCH PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE C STUCK OFF. HOWEVER SINCE CODE DID NOT RETURN AFTER RESETTING, THEY COULD NOT FIX IT UNDER WARRANTY. WE CONSIDERED VAN UNSAFE TO DRIVE (REGARDLESS OF 4 HOUR TRIP REMAINING). WITH NO CHOICE OTHER THAN DRIVING UNSAFE CAR, WE TRADED IT IN AND SUFFERED SIGNIFICANT DEPRECIATION FOR CAR WE OWNED APPROXIMATELY 5 HOURS & 157 MILES. SEARCHES ONLINE AND IN THE NHTSA DATABASE REVEAL THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL, AND HONDA HIDES BEHIND ?NOT ABLE TO REPRODUCE? AFTER TURNING CAR OFF AND RESETTING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE MIDDLE ROW PASSENGER SEAT UNEXPECTEDLY SHIFTED FORWARD, WHICH CAUSED THE PASSENGER'S HEAD TO HIT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V933000 (SEATS); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000.

THE SEATBELT IN THE MIDDLE ROW DRIVER SIDE HAS RIPPED/SHREDDED THREE TIMES IN THE THREE MONTHS THAT I HAVE OWNED THE CAR I HAVE HAD A CAR SEAT INSTALLED IN THIS SEAT BUT THE RIP IS HIGH UP ON THE BELT AND NO WHERE NEAR THE CAR SEAT ITSELF. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENS THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND I HAD ONE OF MY CHILDREN STRAPPED IN AND THE BELT TORE IN HALF WHILE IT WAS BEING USED DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. *TR

THE DRIVER'S HEAD RESTRAINT CAUSES SIGNIFICANT NECK AND BACK PAIN BECAUSE THE RESTRAINT PUSHES MY HEAD FORWARD SO THAT MY CHIN TILTS DOWN TOWARD MY CHEST. THIS ALSO MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO LOOK STRAIGHT AHEAD AT THE ROAD. I HAVE TRIED ALL VERTICAL POSITIONS OF THE HEAD RESTRAINT. I HAVE TRIED ADJUSTING THE LUMBAR SUPPORT. I HAVE TRIED ADDING A NECK SUPPORT PILLOW. NOTHING HAS WORKED. THE OWNER'S GUIDE SAYS, "THE CENTER OF THE BACK OF THE OCCUPANT'S HEAD SHOULD REST AGAINST THE CENTER OF THE RESTRAINT. THE TOPS OF THE OCCUPANT'S EARS SHOULD BE LEVEL WITH THE CENTER HEIGHT OF THE RESTRAINT" (PAGE 42). I AM UNABLE TO SIT WITH THE RESTRAINT IN THE RECOMMENDED POSITION (OR ANY POSITION) WITHOUT SIGNIFICANT NECK AND BACK PAIN AND WITHOUT DIFFICULTY LOOKING FORWARD. THE OWNER'S MANUAL GOES ON TO GIVE THE FOLLOWING WARNING: "IMPROPERLY POSITIONING HEAD RESTRAINTS REDUCES THEIR EFFECTIVENESS AND INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF SERIOUS INJURY IN A CRASH." THEREFORE, I DO NOT FEEL SAFE ADJUSTING THE RESTRAINT IN ANY OTHER UNRECOMMENDED POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, THE OWNER'S GUIDE GIVES INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE HEAD RESTRAINTS TO OPERATE AS DESIGNED: "FOR A HEAD RESTRAINT SYSTEM TO WORK PROPERLY: ' DO NOT HANG ANY ITEMS ON THE HEAD RESTRAINTS, OR FROM THE RESTRAINT LEGS. ' DO NOT PLACE ANY OBJECT BETWEEN AN OCCUPANT AND THE SEAT-BACK. ' INSTALL EACH RESTRAINT IN ITS PROPER LOCATION" (PAGE 43). THEREFORE, PLACING ANY PILLOWS BEHIND THE DRIVER'S BACK OR NECK IS CONSIDERED UNSAFE. THE OWNER'S GUIDE GIVES ANOTHER WARNING, "SITTING IMPROPERLY OR OUT OF POSITION CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IN A CRASH. ALWAYS SIT UPRIGHT, WELL BACK IN THE SEAT, WITH YOUR FEET ON THE FLOOR" (PAGE 42). I AM UNABLE TO SIT "WELL BACK IN THE SEAT" BECAUSE THE RESTRAINT PUSHES MY HEAD, NECK AND SHOULDERS FORWARD.
