2016 Honda Odyssey

THE PROBLEM STARTS WHEN SHIFTING FROM FIRST GEAR TO SECOND GEAR WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO A FULL STOP. THE VAN JOLTS/ JERK. I WENT TO KUNI HONDA CENTENNIAL, CO. WHERE THEY VISUALLY INSPECTED AND TWO DIFFERENT TECHS TEST DROVE WITHOUT EXPERIENCING THE JOLTING. THE DRIVE HOME WAS WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE NEXT MORNING MY WIFE EXPERIENCED THE SAME JOLTING / JERKING ON UPSHIFT AND DOWNSHIFT. THIS PROBLEM IS SCARY SPECIALLY WHEN YOUR DRIVING ALONG THE FREEWAY AND STARTS JERKING. THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE INSIDE THE VAN IS NOW UNSAFE AND IN QUESTION. HELP!!! THE DEALERSHIPS DON'T KNOW THE SOLUTION SO WE'RE ALL DEPENDENT ON HONDA MANUFACTURING ENGINEERS TO CREATE AND DISTRIBUTE A SERVICE BULLETIN NOW BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT! MILEAGE OF FIRST INCIDENT: 25,440

WHILE SLOWLY DRIVING OVER A SET OF UNDULATIONS IN A BUSINESS PARKING LOT, THE VAN CAME DOWN ON ONE OF THE UNDULATIONS AND DEPLOYED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR CURTAINS AND PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAGS. THIS IS A VMI CONVERTED MOBILITY VAN. BECAUSE THE VAN IS LOWER TO THE GROUND AND HEAVIER, IT DID DAMAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE VAN. BECAUSE OF THE LOW SPEED OF TRAVEL, AND THE NATURE OF THE VAN COMING DOWN ON THE UNDULATIONS (NOT SIDE IMPACT) THE AIRBAGS SEEMED TO HAVE DEPLOYED WITHOUT CAUSE. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF WE ARE DRIVING AND HIT A POTHOLE, THE AIRBAGS MAY DEPLOY. MY WIFE IS A PARAPLEGIC AND SHE WOULD BE TRAPPED IN THE VAN BECAUSE THE RAMP WILL NOT DEPLOY.

THE PROBLEM STARTS WHEN I'M SHIFTING FROM FIRST GEAR TO SECOND GEAR WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO A FULL STOP. THE VAN STARTS JERKING, SPECIALLY IN UPHILL. I WENT TO HONDA BUENA PARK AND THEY REPLACE THE PRESSURE SWITCH UNDER WARRANTY. I PICKED UP THE VAN AND AFTER 1 DAY THE PROBLEM STARTS AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM IS SCARY SPECIALLY WHEN YOUR DRIVING ALONG THE FREEWAY AND STARTS JERKING. THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE INSIDE THE VAN IS NOW UNSAFE.

WORKMANSHIP BY HONDA SERVICE AND REPAIR CAUSED CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE TO MY ODYSSEY 2016 CAR, WITH LESS THAN 32K MILES FOR NOW. VEHICLE WAS TIMELY SERVICED /REPAIRED BY FIESTA HONDA 6 TIMES IN LESS THAN 1.7 YEARS. REGISTERED A CASE WITH AMERICAN HONDA TO OFFER COMPLETE REPAIR, EXTENDED BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND OUT OF THE POCKET EXPENSES. AMERICAN HONDA AND FIESTA HONDA REFUSED TO TAKE CARE OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND OUT OF THE POCKET EXPENSES AND THEY HAVE COVERED UP THE CASE AND THEIR MISTAKES, THROUGH JUST BLAME GAME. PER DAVID HONDA FRISCO, WHO CHECKED THE VEHICLE INITIALLY -"'CYLINDER BLOCK ASSEMBLY: P3400/P3497 VALVE PAUSE STUCK OFF. CHECKED FOR LOW OIL AND OIL LEVEL WAS OVER FULL. ALSO FOUND BURNT OIL/SLUDGE STUCK ALL OVER DIP STICK. REMOVED VALVE COVERS AND REAR SPOOL VALVE ASSEMBLY AND FOUND OIL PASSAGE IN SPOOL. ASSEMBLY CLOGGED DUE TO NEGLIGENCE. OIL IS VERY DIRTY DUE TO OIL NOT BEING CHANGED CONSISTENTLY .' , WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT ON MAY LAST WEEK, I BROUGHT IT TO DAVID HONDA FRISCO, FROM FRISCO, FIESTA HONDA HONDA TOWED THE VEHICLE TO SAN ANTONIO AND MANIPULATED THE CASE BY AMERICAN HONDA AND FIESTA HONDA. AMERICAN HONDA CASE MANAGER WAS VERY RUDE AND ARROGANT HANDLING THE CASE. AMERICAN HONDA AND FIESTA HONDA IS NOT EXPLAINING WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO THE VEHICLE, THEY JUST SAY READY TO PICK UP. PROBABLY A MIRACLE HAPPENED TO THIS VEHICLE, HOW CAN WE TRUST THIS VEHICLE, FIESTA HONDA AND AMERICAN HONDA.

WHEN STATIONARY IN SLIGHT INCLINE DRIVEWAY, OPENING DOOR ON DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER IT BEEPS LIKE SOMETHING IS IN WAY THEN CLOSES. HAPPENS EVERYDAY THAT I DRIVE IT. IT HAS ALMOST CRUSHED MY KIDS LEG A FEW TIMES. IT DOES NOT STOP UNLESS IT HITS SOMETHING HARD LIKE YOU. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO 2 HONDA DEALERSHIPS 4 TIMES AND ALSO CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATE AND IT IS STILL NOT FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DELLA HONDA (702 NY-3, PLATTSBURGH, NY 1290 (518) 563-7686), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE IGNITION HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

EXPLODING SUNROOF. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK EARLY ONE MORNING AND I HEARD A LOUD BANG/POP THEN IMMEDIATELY HEARD AIR AS IF MY SUNROOF WAS OPEN. I VERY CAREFULLY OPENED MY SLIDER AND SAW THAT MY SUNROOF HAD A HUGE HOLE IN IT. THANK GOODNESS THE GLASS WAS ON THE SLIDER BECAUSE HAD THE SLIDER BEEN OPEN- THE GLASS WOULD HAVE SHATTERED EVERYWHERE AND HIT MY THREE CHILDREN. I TOOK IT TO HONDA AND NOTHING WAS COVERED. I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO COVER THIS WHEN I DID NOTHING TO THE CAR. IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT. I WAS DRIVING ON THE CROSSTOWN TOP DECK IN TAMPA FLORIDA WITH NOTHING AROUND WHEN I HEARD THE LOUD BANG. THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD HAVE HIT MY CAR IN THAT DIRECTION AS HONDA SAID THAT WAS WHAT HAD TO HAVE HAPPENED BECAUSE THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR CLOSED ABRUPTLY ON ITS OWN, AND DID NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE CONTACT WAS EXITING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SLIDING DOOR KNOCKED HER ONTO THE GROUND. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,029.
