Door · Filler Pipe And Cap
When filling fuel tank consumer's daughter was able to unlock the driver's side power sliding door. Door opened quickly and jammed over the fuel filler door, damaging fuel filler door, also caused fuel to spill on ground. Safety and environmental problem.

My son accidently pulled the level to close the power sliding door. My wife was still putting stuff in the van. The door pinned her against the frame, it did not stop as expected. I later checked the operation of the doors and found the passenger side to be intermittent (sometimes it would stop) and the driver's side would never stop. My wife suffered severe back and neck pain and bruises on her shoulder. According…

The drivers side sliding door on our van keeps getting stuck ajar when i try to close it.

I have taken it in to hall honda to get fixed once and they thought they fixed it and it still does it. The problem is that is doesn't do it always, it is on and off. Yesterday was…

Right electric sliding door opens intermittently when car is in park. Of some 20 incidents only 2 have occurred when the engine was running (transmission in park) and doors unlocked. Other incidents ocurred when car was unattended and doors unlocked. Dealer notified. Dealer requested car be left for observation. This approach is not acceptable to owner as problem may take a week or two to reoccur.*ak

While putting kids in the car, one of the children pulled the side door handle and the door automatically rolled shut. This door could injure someone, especially a child if caught between the door.

Power sliding doors reverse themselves the first time anything gets in their path. If you stop the door and attempt to close it a second time the doors will not stop closing. The door closed on my husbands fingers the other week at the car dealership. We are looking to buy a honda odyssey, but are thinking twice because of this issue. I am concerned that a child could get hurt pretty bad by the power of this closing…

Electric sliding power doors do not rebound when encountering obstacle. Should a person inadvertantly get in the way of a closing door, the motor will exert tremendous force on individual, likely causing injury. The owners manual suggests pressing the "open" button on the remote key ring or the dash board. In the case of a small child entering/exiting (which in the case of a mini-van is quite likely), the potential…

Left side sliding door keeps sticking closed will not open until car is repeatedly turned off and on. This has happened repeatedly since the van was new! Seems to be electrical rather than "door seal sticking" as honda claims. Each time they just grease the door seal. Now the left outside handle has broken when trying to open door. And now the right side sliding door is starting to stick also. Have complained about…

Door
Reoccurring problem with left turns and electric sliding door indicators showing that door is open. The door has not actually opened as of yet. I know the 1999 model had similar problems, but their doors were opening. This should serve as mostly an awareness alert. I will have dealer look at it when i take it in for first scheduled maintenance in about one month.
