While stationary in a parking lot, while opening the passenger side sliding door the entire door jumped out of the channel, almost falling on top of myself and others and damaging the side of the car and rendering the door useless. The bearings for the door appear to be factory originals and are made of a cheap plastic that has broken. This appears to be dangerous and common for odyssees. I have never had a car ever…

The automatic sliding door came off the track and fell off while attempting to open the door. The car was parked and was being opened automatically when it became dislodged from the car's track. I spoke with a mechanic and this seems to be a common problem with the 2008 honda odyssey.

The navigation system has been experiencing a failure to read the dvd which also is causing the backup camera system to fail while driving. The only fix to the problem is to restart the vehicle. The dvd for the navigation system in version 4.92 and was placed in the vehicle less than 5 years ago due to problems with the navigation system at that time while under warranty. I contacted honda today and was informed by…

Vehicle was stationary, in drive with brake applied, on a city street at a red light, dry conditions. Sudden, unexpected acceleration/reving/engine surge occurred--with such force that i initially thought i'd been rear-ended. I applied pressure to brakes and put car in park. For a moment, it seemed as if the brakes failed--not sure. Surge continued for a number of seconds, then subsided. Had car towed. Mechanic…

The automatic side door on the driver's side of the vehicle operated intermittently. The power to the door was turned off so that it could be operated manually. The door came off in hand during normal operation when attempting to close the door, except for the lower connection with the electronics. It took a mechanic, with help, about one hour to close the door, which is now completely non-operational. I have been…

On 12/17/2011, i took my 2008 honda odyssey in for service to have the transmission checked since there was fluid leaking and what felt like transmission slippage. Because i purchase the car new, had all of my services completed, and because the van only had 84,000 miles, you can imagine my surprise when sons honda (same place where i purchased and had all services completed) informed me i needed a new transmission…

Minivan was brought to dealer to fix an overly-soft brake pedal, per a recall letter. Car was returned with brakes equally soft (or worse), so that even a "panic brake" procedure (using 240 lb of foot strength) could not trigger the abs, brake assist, or other brake safety features. Car was returned to the (same) dealer twice more, with no improvement. Calls to honda brought no results. Although there may be a…
