HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE SINCE NEW (JULY 2006). VEHICLE/STEERING/WHEELS EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT VIBRATION AT 65 TO 70MPH. HAVE CHANGED TIRES, ALL SUSPENSION PARTS AND NOTHING SEEMS TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. BEEN GOING ON SINCE VEHICLE WAS NEW. HAVE BEEN TO DEALERSHIP MANY MANY TIMES AND SPENT A LOT OF MONEY BASED ON DEALERSHIP SERVICE RECOMMENDATION BUT STILL PROBLEM PERSISTS. THIS VEHICLE IS DEFECTIVE AND HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE RECALL FOR THIS GENERATION OF ODYSSEYS AS I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH MANY OWNERS OF THIS SAME TYPE VEHICLE.

WHILE PICKING UP MY 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY FROM THE DEALERSHIP {DUE TO A REPAIR FROM A RECALL} I'M INFORMED THAT I NEED TO REPLACE MY "MOTOR MOUNTS"'. MY VAN IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AT THIS POINT AND THIS WILL COST ~ OVER $1,000.00! *TR THIS CAUSES LAG UPON ACCELERATION AND VIBRATION AT HIGHER SPEEDS {AND WILL BE MUCH WORSE WHEN ALL 3 MOUNTS FAIL}. WHY IS HONDA PLACING SUCH SUBSTANDARD PARTS IN ITS VEHICLES? *TR

WE HAD ENTERED THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AND HAD TRAVELED ABOUT 5 MILES. WHILE PASSING A SEMI AND IN THE LEFT LANE OF THE HIGHWAY, AT 70 MPH, THE RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO VIBRATE AND THE TIRE WAS SLAPPING THE UNDERSIDE OF THE FENDER. CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS MAINTAINED AND THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWED DOWN AND MOVED TO THE CENTER MEDIAN. WHEN TRAFFIC CLEARED, THE VEHICLE WAS MOVED SAFELY TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE, INSPECTION OF THE RIGHT REAR TIRE REVEALED A TOTAL BLOW OUT. THE OTHER MEMBERS EXITED THE VEHICLE AND REMAINED IN THE GRASS AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE THE TIRE WAS CHANGED. WHEN THE TIRE WAS CHANGED WE CONTINUED TO THE NEXT EXIT AND USED BACK ROADS TO RETURN HOME. NEW TIRES WERE PURCHASED ON TUESDAY, OCT 23, 2012. THE TIRE SPECIALIST INDICATED THAT THE PROBABLE CAUSE OF THE BLOW OUT WAS HITTING A POT HOLE. *TR

HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE! I HAD DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH ON WHAT TYPE OF USED MINI VAN WAS THE BEST ON THE MARKET. HONDA KEPT POPPING UP, SO I WENT AND PURCHASED A 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY TOURING. I LOVED IT UNTIL I GOT A FLAT TIRE. I TOOK IT TO DISCOUNT TIRE STORE (THE SAME PLACE WE TOOK OUR TOYOTA). THAT IS WHERE WE INFORMED THAT WE HAVE THE PAX TIRE SYSTEM. FROM THERE IT'S BEEN A DISASTER! I'VE CALLED MICHELIN AND THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, NOBODY WILL DO ANYTHING TO MAKE THIS SITUATION RIGHT! IT SHOULD BE DISCLOSED TO BUYERS BEFORE THEY PURCHASE A CAR WITH THIS TIRE SYSTEM ON IT. THE TIRES COST 300$ A PIECE AND I WAS INFORMED BY MICHELIN THAT THEY ONLY LAST UP TO 36K MILES. THE TIRES THAT I HAVE RIGHT NOW, STILL SHOULD HAVE 50% OF THEIR LIFE, HOWEVER MY REAR TIRE NOW HAS A "BUBBLE" ON IT. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE! SHAME ON HONDA AND MICHELIN FOR NOT DOING THE RIGHT THING! I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA OR MICHELIN TIRE! *TR

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE AMERICAN HONDA DATED SUMMER 2011, REGARDING THE WARRANTY EXTENSION OF THE "STEERING WHEEL IS HARD TO TURN AT LOW SPEEDS AND ENGINE RPM." THE TERM IS UP TO 7 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES. I BOUGHT MY VAN IN AUGUST OF 2006, HOWEVER, SINCE I DRIVE ALMOST 100 MILES A DAY (HOME TO WORK), I HAVE MORE THAN 100,000. HERE IS MY CONCERN, I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS SAID PROBLEM (REGARDING THE STEERING WHEELS IS HARD TO TURN) IN THE HONDA DEALER IN CORONA EVEN BEFORE RECEIVING THIS LETTER, BUT ALL THEY SAID THAT IT COULD BE RELATED TO COLD WEATHER. LATER ON ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO, THEY SAID THE POWER STEERING PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACE. RIGHT AFTER I RECEIVED THIS LETTER FROM AMERICAN HONDA, I GAVE THEM A CALL AND TOLD THEM THAT I'M ALREADY HAVING THIS PROBLEM BEFORE, AND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, BUT I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE I WAS BROKE. I ASKED THEM IF I CAN BRING MY VAN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM REPLACE THE POWER STEERING PUMP EVENTHOUGH MY MILEAGE NOW IS MORE THAN WHAT THEY WANT WHICH IS 100,000 MILES. THEY SAID, THEY CAN'T HELP ME BECAUSE THEY ARE STRICT ON WARRANTY EXTENSION. AND, SINCE MY MILEAGE IS NOW 165,000 MILES, THEY CAN'T HELP ME EVEN IF THE YEARS QUALIFIES ME. THEY SAID TO CONTACT MY LOCAL DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND WHERE I BRING MY CAR FOR REPAIR AND SEE IF THEY CAN GIVE ME A DISCOUNT TO FIX IT. THE POINT IS IT IS NOT FAIR FOR THEM TO SET A LIMIT ON THEIR WARRANTY BECAUSE THIS IS AN OBVIOUS FACTORY DEFECT. THEY SHOULD HAVE COVERED THE ODYSSEY 2006 REGARDLESS OF THE MILEAGE BECAUSE BASED ON THIS LETTER, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THERE IS A LOT OF COMPLAINS ABOUT IT. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, BUT I AM HOPING THAT BY REPORTING THIS, WE CAN CONSIDER THIS PRODUCT DEFECT AS A RECALL. *TR

I HAVE FOUND 1000+ PEOPLE WITH THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND YET CANNOT FIND THAT HONDA HAS DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE AUDIO FOR THE WIRELESS DVD INPUT STOPS AFTER 10 - 20 MINUTES OF WATCHING A DVD. IT JUST STARTS TO BUZZ AND FAILS TO WORK. I HAVE FOUND THREADS WHERE SOME HONDA DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT CHARGING FOR THE FIX WHILE OTHERS ARE. THE AUDIO WORKS ON THE WIRELESS HEADPHONES ON ALL OTHER INPUTS (AM/FM, CD, AUX) JUST NOT DVD. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY AND THE AC SUDDENLY STOP BLOWING COLD AIR. I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THE CONDENSER WAS DAMAGED BY THE ROCK HITTING IT WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. I NOTICED THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO OWN AN ODYSSEY ALSO EXPERIENCE A SIMILAR PROBLEM. THIS IS CONSIDER AS A DESIGN PROBLEM FROM HONDA NOT HAVING ANY PROTECTION TO THE CONDENSER AS ROCKS CAN HIT THE CONDENSER FROM THE HIGHWAY AND DAMAGE IT. THIS COST ME ALMOST $800 TO FIX. I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND EVENTHOUGH I GOT IT FIXED, THE CONDENSER CAN GET DAMAGED ANYTIME AS THERE IS NOTHING PROTECTING IT. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY AND ON A RECENT TRIP TO CALIFORNIA MY AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING. I BROUGHT IT INTO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND WAS TOLD AT THE TIME THAT IF IT WAS STRUCK BY A ROCK IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ABOUT AN HOUR LATER THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN CONTACTED ME TO TELL ME THAT SURE ENOUGH A ROCK HAS HIT MY A/C CONDENSER AND IT WOULD COST $700.00 TO FIX IT BECAUSE IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN ALSO STATED THAT THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING QUITE OFTEN. I DECIDE TO GOOGLE MY A/C CONDENSER AND WAS NOT SURPRISED TO FIND COUNTLESS FORUMS WITH HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ALL STATING THE EXACT SAME STORY COMPLETE WITH THE SAME EXACT COMMENTS FROM THE TECHNICIANS. MY SUSPICIONS RAISED, THIS BEGINS TO SOUND LIKE A REHEARSED STORY OF "A ROCK HAS HIT YOUR AC CONDENSER PUTTING A HOLE IN IT" . IT WOULD APPEAR THAT HONDA NEGLECTED TO INCLUDE A SIMPLE GRILL IN THE AREA BENEATH THE LICENSE PLATE FRAME THAT WOULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS FROM OCCURRING. THE STOCK GRILL HAS TOO MUCH SPACE SO DEBRIS ARE ABLE TO GET IN. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED BY HONDA AND FIXED SINCE IT'S THEIR MISTAKE. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY LX MINIVAN. THE AC STOPPED WORKING. TWICE. WITHIN WARRANTY TIME/MILEAGE. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE AC CONDENSER WAS DAMAGED BY STONE, CAUSING LEAKAGE OF CFC. I CALLED HONDA, THEY CLAIMED THAT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. EVEN THE FRONT GRILLE THEY INSTALLED IN THEIR NEWER MODELS ARE "FOR ANY NUMBER OF REASONS, NOT NECESSARILY TO FIX THIS DESIGN FLAW". CFC KILLS OZONE LAYER. I FEEL BAD MY VAN DUMPED TWO TANKS OF CFC INTO THE (ALREADY BADLY POLLUTED) ATMOSPHERE . HONDA'S BAD DESIGN CAUSES BIG TIME POLLUTION, AND IT IS A PROBLEM THAT CAN BE FIXED WITH A TINY COST ADDED TO THE VEHICLE. HONDA CUTS CORNERS, AND THIS IS A BAD ONE. IT CAUSES CONSUMERS SO MUCH, BECAUSE HONDA WANTS TO SAVE A COUPLE OF BUCKS. OTHER CAR MAKERS MAY HAVE THE SAME ISSUE - THEY DO NOT COVER FRAGILE PART IN THE VEHICLE PROPERLY. *TR

I AM UNAWARE OF SPECIFIC EVENTS WHICH LED TO THIS OCCURRENCE. AT THE FIRST SIGN OF WARM WEATHER, I ATTEMPTED TO USE THE AIR CONDITIONER; IT WOULD ONLY BLOW WARM. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER ON 3/17/08, AND WERE TOLD SOMETHING HAD HIT THE CONDENSER AND RENDERED IT INOPERABLE. THIS DEALER QUOTED $773 TO REPAIR, AND WE DECLINED. WE TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER DEALER ON 4/4/08, AND WERE TOLD THE SAME THING. THE COST TO REPAIR WAS $829. AN ONLINE SEARCH REVEALED MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM; THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN DEFECT WHICH SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA. *TR

THE A/C STARTED BLOWING HOT AIR ON 6/10/07. THE DEALER INFORMED US THERE WOULD BE A $195 INSPECTION FEE BEFORE REPAIRS WERE STARTED. WE WERE INFORMED A ROCK HIT THE CONDENSER, AND REPAIRS WOULD NOT BE UNDER WARRANTY. WE WERE SHOWN NO EVIDENCE OF THE DAMAGE. THE DEALER IMPLIED THIS WAS A RARE PROBLEM, YET INSISTED THAT AMERICAN HONDA WOULD NOT COVER ANY PART OF THE RESPONSE, AS THE DEALER HAD DEALT WITH THEM ON THIS ISSUE IN THE PAST. NOT WANTING TO WASTE THE $195 INSPECTION FEE, I GAVE THE GO AHEAD TO WHAT I FOUND OUT LATER WAS AN OVER-PRICED $840 REPAIR. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW, ONE THAT AMERICAN HONDA TOLD ME WAS ADDRESSED IN THE 2008 MODEL REDESIGN. I AM PURSUING THIS ISSUE WITH THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE. *TR

CONCERNED WITH ADVERTISEMENT FOR THE HONDA ODYESSY. COMMERCIAL SHOWS TWO CHILDREN IN A THE VAN WATCHING A DVD. VAN IS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY IN APPARENT WARM MONTHS AS DEPICTED BY THE CLOTHES WORN BY THE ACTORS AND APPEARENCE OF LEAVES ON TREES, FLOWERS, ETC. COMMERCIAL HIGHLIGHTS THE FEATURES OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT ALSO SHOWS A PARENT SHUTTING THE VEHICLE'S DOORS WITH THE KIDS IN THE VEHICLE WATCHING THE VIDEO. THIS COULD BE MISLEADING TO SOME KIDS ENCOURAGING THEM TO PLAY IN A VEHICLE. KIDS DON'T THINK ABOUT THE DANGERS OF HEAT IN VEHICLES. *NM
