Right sliding door fails to open. Would allow manual opening on several occasion then the door latched into locked position and wouldn't open even manually. Taken to dealer service center.

Said everything looks to be in working order…

Sliding door on year 2000 honda mini van jams partially closed. Released after car goes over several bumps in road, allowing door to slam shut similar to guillotine. *ak van taken in for repair, honda service personnel familiar with problem: defective plastic bearing on door.

Honda odyssey 2000. Some manufacturing defect has caused the rear motorized sliding door to fail on the driver's side. The door will not close securely. If the door handle, outside or inside was pulled or bumped the door came unlatched but will not open or close, whether the vehiclewas in park or not. The door open light did not illuminate so the driver was unaware that children riding in the back were at risk. *ak

Honda odyssey 2000 sliding door doesn't open or close it is stuck - but it is open enough to have the alarm sounding if you are not in park. I am worried for my children's safety - what if the door decides to fly open in the middle of driving. I feel this vehicle is unsafe and want to know if there is a recall. Looking online there are many complaints of this problem. *jb
