    While stopped at a 4 way traffic intersection w/light and with foot on the brake, the engine raced on it's own causing the car to surge ahead unexpectantly. I had to take it out of gear to avoid an accident.

    My 2009 odyssey 06/05/15 it currently has 115,000 miles on it. This is the second engine light dealing with the transmission. When i first got the car i had it routinely serviced at the dealership. The first time it was the clutch this time it is the torque converter, so all internal. The gears are fine until 5th or overdrive.

    On may 12, 2012, i was driving about 50 mph when the van started to sputter. I came to a red light and the car acted as if it were about to cut off. The check engine light started blinking along with the vsa light. It rode very rough all the way to the closest honda dealership as i was not in my hometown. They informed me that one of the spark plugs needed to be replaced. I went ahead and replaced all of them to the…

    Transmission downshifts are extremely rough, especially from 45 mph. When slowing down from this speed and re-accelerating from 25 mph (as in slowing for an intersection or traffic), the downshifting and upshifting are both rough - to the point of wondering whether the transmission will fall out, or not. This condition has existed from the day i purchased the car. Took it to the dealer in february 2010 for a…

    2009 honda odyssey lx. 2 times i was stopping and pushed the brake and accelerator at same time.
