2010 Honda Odyssey

HAVE HAD INTERMITTENT ISSUE WITH THE AUTOMATIC FEATURE NOT BEING ABLE TO FULLY CLOSE THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. TODAY, I TRIED TO OPEN IT BUT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS MAKING GRINDING NOISE AND ONLY OPENING 1/3 OF THE WAY ON THE AUTOMATIC SETTING. I DISENGAGED THE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR FUNCTION AND OPENED IT MANUALLY. SLID OPEN NO PROBLEM. I REENGAGED THE AUTO SETTING WHEN I WENT TO CLOSE THE DOOR. IT STARTED TO SLIDE CLOSE AND A LITTLE LESS THAN HALF WAY, IT FELL AT ME, COMING COMPLETELY OFF THE CAR OTHER THAN A SMALL GUIDE WIRE IN THE CENTER. I CAN NOT GET IT BACK INTO PLACE AND AM LOOKING INTO GETTING IT TOWED TO BE REPAIRED. WHEN THE CENTER ROLLER CAME OFF THE TRACK IT LEFT GIGANTIC GASHES IN THE PAINT/METAL ON THE SIDE OF THE VAN.

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..

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND THE VEHICLE STARTED JERKING. I RUSHED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS MISFIRING AND THEY HAD TO UPDATE THE SOFTWARE, REPLACE THE SPARK PLUGS. THEY ALSO INFORMED THAT THE PISTON RINGS WERE LEAKING AND SOME OF THE ENGINE OIL WAS BURNT, I ALSO HEARD THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE ON THIS VEHICLE THAT OTHERS HAD FACED, A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT HAD BEEN FILED WHERE HONDA HAD PROVIDED A WARRANTY EXTENSION AND NOT A RECALL, SO THE ISSUE WILL HAVE TO BE HANDLED BY ME. I WAS WORRIED ABOUT MY FAMILY'S SAFETY AND HONDA WAS NOT READY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

THE SIDE DOORS FELL OFF THE TRACK. BOTH OF THEM WITHIN DAYS. ONE WHEN OPENING IT AND THE OTHER DRIVING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY. I'M JUST GLAD IT DIDNT HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE THAT SERIOUSLY COULD HAVE HURT SOMEONE. I LOOKED THIS ISSUE UP AND FOUND IT IS VERY COMMON ON THESE VAN'S AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS HAPPEN. ONE DOOR IS NOW HELD ON WITH A STRAP AND THE OTHER ONE WE GOT CLOSED AND BACK ON BUT WE CANNOT OPEN THEM. MY KIDS HAVE TO CLIMB OVER THE FRONT SEATS TO GET TO THEIR SEATS. I AM VERY WORRIED THEY WILL FLY OFF DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY LIKE I'VE READ OTHERS HAVE. THE SIDE OF MY VAN IS ALL SCRATCHED UP FROM THEM FALLING OFF TOO.

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON RURAL PAVED HIGHWAY, OUR 2010 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN APPLIED MODERATE BRAKING (WITH ZERO DRIVER INPUT) TO THE LEFT-FRONT WHEEL TWICE WITHIN A SECOND OR TWO OF EACH OTHER. THIS BRAKING CAUSED THE VAN TO PULL MODERATELY TO THE LEFT AND NEARLY CROSS THE HIGHWAY CENTERLINE. THE VSA LIGHT ICON (VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST) FLASHED ON THE DASH DURING THIS EVENT. THIS HAPPENED ON A SUNNY, DRY DAY WITH TEMPERATURE AROUND 70F. VAN WAS TRAVELING ON A PERFECTLY STRAIGHT SECTION OF HIGHWAY. NO TRACTION ISSUES WHATSOEVER.

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.
