Experiencing vibration in vehicle during acceleration between 40-60 mph. Took the van to mechanic and was informed that two motors mounts are bad and need replacing. These are not wear and tear items and should not need replacing. This appears to be a problem with honda odyssey vans and this problem is not being covered by warranty since the failure occurs around 100k to 150k miles. *tr

Power tailgate opened and came right down hitting my wife. She was not hurt.

Thankfully the problem is being fixed before it caused an accident. Is there a recall or planned recall for this problem? My…
