I was driving on the interstate when my hood flew up and shattered my windshield. After inspecting the vehicle, it was found that the hood latch mechanism had screws missing and one screw very loose left in place. The hood latch mechanism freely moved around which is apparently how the hood became unlatched and broke the windshield. On the interstate doing 50mph on the marquette interchange this created an unsafe…

Our 2005 honda odyssey vibrates, especially around 35-45 mph. Honda told us that the engine mounts have broken and that is what is causing it. They are not a cheap fix. Engine mounts, the last thing that you would think would go out on a vehicle! Yet, when you go online, this apparently seems to be a massive problem with these vans. Honda has a problem with their engine mounts braking and this seems to be ok with…
