2/5/2020 i was traveling at highway speeds with moderate traffic, when the main display screen in my minivan started flashing error messages. The radio display screen was acting wacky also. The van started making a loud rapid 'click.click.click." type noise. I was trying to figure out what was happening, when i noticed that the display said "p" for park. I could not accelerate to merge out of traffic. It happened so…

Initially the vehicle would randomly turn off while driving, it was not the idle stop since it is deactivated before driving. The dealer eventually said it was the battery. Then the infotainment system stopped working, the radio was replaced after a week of being at the dealer. Now 3 weeks after repair, the infotainment system does not work. Has a noise that comes out of the speakers like sparks, has a chemical…

The car has 27,000 miles on it. The engine mount is being replaced due to it being bad, the radio is very delayed and crashes and the sliding door keeps sticking and i have to force it closed.

Electrical System
Frequent loud crackling noises come from the speakers, followed by a network connection lost error message on the screen, and then the screen will go black and eventually the system will reboot. This will happen repeatedly while driving and does not depend on the state or use of the infotainment system (it can be off and still happen). There seems to be a correlation with going over a bump, suggesting a loose…

When we start the engine all the errors come up saying that the vhs failed, the electronics stability failed, brake system failed and all the other components. We have purchased 2 odyssey and they both have that problems. When we called honda they told us to repair it as it was our fault. After few starts it goes away. We went to our mechanic and they reset the codes and it has gone away for now but there is an on…

While driving on a trip at about 60 mph, the infotainment system stopped working, nothing was functional, including the back-up camera which i heavily rely on. This is a safety issue. In addition, once the vehicle was shut off, the infotainment system wouldn't turn off and started draining the battery. I ended up having to pull the fuse to get it to shut off, which is ver difficult to access. I have had this vehicle…

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…

Electrical System
The navigation screen stays black. No backup camera, can't change the radio, use the phone or change air flow or get directions from the screen. Some days it doesn't come on at all, others it comes on while driving. You never know, very frustrating. I feel lucky if it comes on when i first start the car. This is unacceptable in a brand new vehicle.
