2014 Honda Odyssey

MY SLIDING DOORS DO NOT WORK CORRECTLY AND NOT EVEN SURE IF THEY ARE LATCHING PROPERLY. THERE IS A MAJOR ELECTRIC ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND HONDA IS UNWILLING TO ADDRESS IT, THERE IS NUMEROUS PLACES ON THE INTERNET OF THE SAME DOOR ISSUES!!! GIVE A PLACE TO SEND VIDEOS, I HAVE ABOUT 10 I CAN SEND WHERE YOU CAN CLEAR SEE THAT THE DOORS AND ELECTRICAL ARE NOT WORKING. ALSO SINCE THIS IS ELECTRICAL I AM ON MY 3RD BATTERY FOR THIS 2014 VEHICLE, IF YOU TEST THE BATTERY WHILE IN CAR IT WILL TEST AT ABOUT 1300+ CRANKING AMPS, WHICH THE DEALERSHIP CAN NOT EXPLAIN. TAKE THE BATTERY OF OF THE CAR AND IT TESTS CORRECTLY AND BY MORE COMPANY.. CLEARLY AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THE SLIDING DOORS WILL NOT OPEN UNDER POWER OF THE CAR OFTEN, IT IS AS IF THERE IS NO POWER GOING TO THE DOOR, SWITCHES, OR THE KEY FAB. I DO HAVE YOUNGER CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND DO NOT FEEL SAFE AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROX. 55 MPH, I HEARD A CLICKING SOUND AND A HISSING WIND SOUND COMING FROM THE WINDSHIELD ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. IT FELT LIKE THE WINDSHIELD WAS BEING PULLED UP AND YOU COULD SEE THE EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD MOLDING FLAPPING IN THE WIND. ALSO, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR SIDE WINDOW WAS MOVING BACK AND FORTH HITTING THE WINDOW FRAME.

COMING DOWN MCDONALDS PASS, THE VAN WAS GOING FASTER THAN I WANTED, 50 OR 60 MILES PER HOUR SO I TAPPED THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN ON CLEAR BLACKTOP, NO ICE. WHEN I DID,THE FRONT END WHEELS SHIMMIED EACH TIME I TAPPED THE BREAKS. IT SCARED ME, BECAUSE IF IT HAD BEEN ICY, I COULD NOT HAVE SLOWED DOWN AT AN APPROPRIATE SPEED TO GET TO A SAFER SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY SLOW DOWN, BUT THE FRONT END KEPT SHIMMYING EACH TIME I TAPPED THE BRAKES GOING DOWN THE STEEP HILL AND THERE WERE CURVES IN THE ROAD AS WELL.

MY DAUGHTER WAS TRAPPED IN THE SEATBELT. WE PARKED THE CAR IN OUR GARAGE AND WHEN SHE SAT UP TO RELEASE HER BELT, THE BELT BECAME TANGLED AROUND HER WAIST. WE TRIED FOR 30 MINUTES TO RELEASE TO SEATBELT BUT ONCE IT RETRACTED THERE WAS NO WAY TO RELEASE IT. FINALLY WE HAD TO CUT THE BELT TO FREE HER. SHE WAS SITTING IN THE THIRD ROW ON THE DRIVERS SIDE.

PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WON'T SHUT ON MY 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN. I PARKED THE VAN IN A PARKING GARAGE AND WE SHUT ALL THE DOORS THE PASSENGER WOULD ONLY SHUT HALF WAY AND THEN RE-OPEN. AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF TRYING TO SEE IF ANYTHING WAS STUCK I CALLED AAA AND BECAUSE I COULD NOT LEAVE MY CHILDREN ALONE WHILE I DRIVE THE VAN OUT OF THE GARAGE AND BECAUSE I COULD NOT DRIVE WITH THEM IN THE VAN WITH THE DOOR OPEN WE HAD TO WAIT 3 HOURS FOR A TRUCK THAT WOULD FIT IN A GARAGE. AAA FINALLY CAME AND SAID THEY COULD NOT TOW THE VAN BECAUSE THE DOOR MUST BE SHUT FOR LIABILITY AND SAFETY REASONS. SO I AM STUCK IN A GARAGE WITH 4 KIDS AND NO ONE CAN HELP ME. AT THIS TIME MY FIANC SHOWED UP (WE WERE OUT OF TOWN ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY FROM HOME) AND AAA AND HE DECIDED TO CUT THE CABLE THAT IS ATTACHED TO THE DOOR AND THE DOOR SHUT.. BUT THE DOOR IS BROKEN. I CALLED HONDA OWNER AND MADE A COMPLAINT BUT FROM MY UNDERSTANDING IT'S JUST NOTED NO ACTION IS TAKEN IN THE MEAN WHILE MY ALMOST $30,000 VAN HAS A BROKEN DOOR THEY CAN IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. I CALLED MY LOCAL HONDA (THEY WERE NOT VERY NICE) IT SEEMS ALL ABOUT THE$$ AND NOT THE SAFETY OF THEIR HONDA OWNERS. THEY SAID THEY WILL LOOK AT MY CAR FOR A FEE OF$140.. I LOOKED UP PARTS ONLINE AND $400 + SO THAT PLUS WHAT EVER THEY CHARGE ME TO FIX PROBABLY $1000 FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE BROKEN IN THE FIRST PLACE. PEOPLE WHO USUALLY GET VANS ARE PEOPLE THAT HAVE MULTIPLY CHILDREN. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO ADDRESSED ASAP IT'S CHILD INDANGERMENT TO HAVE A OPEN DOOR WHILE YOUR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. AND WHAT IF I HAD TO LEAVE IT THERE BECAUSE I HAD NO ONE THEN IT WOULD NOT BE SECURE IT WOULD BE WIDE OPEN.PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ASAP THIS NOT SOMETHING ANY PARENT SHOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH. THUS SITUATION MADE ME FEEL HELPLESS MY KIDS WERE TIRED, HUNGRY AND HAD TO USE THE BATHROOM AND I WAS HELPLESS. I COULDN'T DO ANYTHING.

OUR HONDA ODYSSEY WAS SUBJECT TO THE RECENT RECALL RELATING TO THE MOVEMENT OF THE SECOND ROW SEATS. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR AT THE NEARBY HONDA DEALERSHIP, AND IT WAS ALLEGEDLY FIXED. HOWEVER, SEVERAL DAYS THEREAFTER, WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH MY TODDLER (IN A CAR SEAT ATTACHED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE SECOND ROW SEAT) AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH ON LOCAL STREETS, I BRAKED GENTLY TO MERGE INTO A LANE THAT WOULD TURN TOWARD THE HIGHWAY WHEN I HEARD MY CHILD CRYING IN SUDDEN DISTRESS. THE SEAT THAT SHE WAS IN HAD FLIPPED FORWARD INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, AND HER HEAD AND BODY WAS PRESSED INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND WENT TO SET THE SEAT BACK DOWN AND CHECK ON AND COMFORT MY CHILD. THERE WERE SOME INJURIES, AND WE SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION. AFTER THE INCIDENT, I CHECKED THE SEAT THAT HAD FLIPPED FORWARD, AND IT WAS STILL NOT LOCKED INTO PLACE, DESPITE ME HAVING SET THE SEAT DOWN AFTER THE INCIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE CLEAR THAT NO INDIVIDUAL HAS MOVED THIS SEAT SINCE WE RETRIEVED THE CAR AFTER ITS REPAIR FROM THE RECALL. THIS INCIDENT IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE, AS THIS INDICATES THAT THE REPAIR RELATING TO THE RECALL WAS NOT PROPERLY DONE OR ELSE THERE ARE ADDITIONAL MECHANICAL ISSUES INVOLVED. I ATTACHED A PICTURE OF HOW THE CAR SEAT WAS POSITIONED (WITH MY CHILD IN IT!). WE ALSO CALLED THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TO BRING THE CAR BACK IN FOR EVALUATION, AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THIS INCIDENT WAS DUE TO THEIR HUMAN ERROR OR A MECHANICAL ISSUE.

I OWN A 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY, AND HE DRIVER DOOR SOMETIMES COME OPEN BY ITSELF WHEN I AM DRIVING. OTHER TIMES I CANNOT GET IN TO THE VEHICLE, BECAUSE I CANNOT UNLOCK THE DOORS TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE, NOT EVEN USING THE REGULAR KEY. WHEN I PARK MY VEHICLE, AND IF BY ANY CHANCE I AM ABLE TO LOCK THE VEHICLE DOORS, THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER THE DRIVER'S DOOR COME OPEN (NOT UNLOCK) BY ITSELF. I CANNOT LEAVE ANYTHING INSIDE THE VEHICLE, BECAUSE ANYONE CAN JUST GET IN. YESTERDAY, 20 MARCH 2017, AFTER I PARK MY VEHICLE I WAS TRYING TO GET OUT AND I COULD NOT, BECAUSE I COULD NOT UNLOCK THE DRIVER'S DOOR. A VERY SCARY FEELING. I HAD TO JUMP TO THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE AND GOT OUT OPENING THE BACK DOOR. THE REMOTE/SWITCH SOMETIMES WILL LOCK AND UNLOCK ALL THE DOORS, AND THE HATCH, BUT WILL NOT THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THE OTHER DOORS AFTER I START THE CAR AND START DRIVING WOULD NOT LOCK AUTOMATIC LIKE IT SHOULD.

EXPLODING SUN ROOF. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON EXPRESSWAY TRAVELING EAST. LOUD EXPLOSION HEARD OVER VEHICLE. AFTER PULLING OVER AN INSPECTION REVEALED THAT SUNROOF HAD SHATTERED, BUT DUE TO INTERIOR COVER CLOSED NO GLASS FELL INSIDE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN INTO A REPAIR SHOP AFTER REPORTING INCIDENT TO INSURANCE COMPANY. REPAIR SHOP TECHNICIAN ADVISED THAT HE HAD RECENTLY ENCOUNTERED SAME SITUATION ON A 2015 HONDA ODYSSEY VAN WITH A DAMAGED SUN ROOF WHICH APPEARED TO HAVE JUST POPPED OFF. HAVE CONTACTED HONDA DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND AM AWAITING A RESPONSE IF COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
