2007 honda odyssey. When at a slow speed, the power steering pump may not be operating at power and you lose almost all, if not all power steering assist. It has nearly caused an accident for me turning into driveways and parking spaces multiple times already (at least 3 incidents that were near-misses). Upon reporting the issue to honda, it was difficult to duplicate in a limited test and i was simply told that was…

2 complaints, first one is the power steering pump went at 35000 miles. Honda did replace it under warranty. But the pump in now at 60,000 miles is going bad. Second complaint, the front left hub bearing went bad way too early, 50,000 miles. This is a very dangerous problem. Called honda and the local honda dealership several times and received no help at all. They would not cover this part or the workmanship to…

2007 honda odyssey- for the past 6-8 months at slow speeds when parking and turning, the power steering appears to quit working. When you get up to speed the problem goes away. This makes it difficult to exit the roadway from a dead stop and almost impossible to park or leave a parking spot. I fear being rear ended or worse. Local dealer "knows of no problems reported". Vehicle is out of warranty (46,000 miles). *tr

Power steering issue on 2007 honda odyssey. No power steering ability in parking, k turn or parallel park. Faster speeds it kicks in, slower speeds you have to muscle it through. Told by honda service department that no recall to date, need to replace pump and reservoir. It's only 3 yrs old... This is not a normal wear and tear item. Google resulted in several consumer complaints on power steering. Although it did…

Strong pulling/drifting to right. Driver must use constant strength to keep car driving straight or will end up in the next lane within about 6 seconds. Can be more difficult than usual to keep van steering straight when looking over shoulder to switch lanes. Have accidentally pulled close to others, causing them to honk for fear we were coming into their lane next to them. Had van in to dealership 4 times and they…

Honda odyssey. After approximately 30 minutes of driving, the power steering pump whines, buzzes or hums. Honda issued a bulletin (honda service bulletin 07-005 applicable to all 05-07 and some 08 vans) stating the power steering pump reservoir is defective, requiring a new pump, filter and fluid. However, they will only provide replacement if under warranty. My concern is the metal shaving or other particles my…

2007 honda odyssey ex-l: power steering issues there is no power steering assist when parking and moving at low speeds. Once you are moving at a slightly higher speed, it kicks in, but until then, it is as if you are driving with no power steering. Power steering pump has been replaced multiple times. This is clearly a safety issue, as one can never tell whether there will be power steering or not. *tr
