The side doors fell off the track. Both of them within days. One when opening it and the other driving down my driveway. I'm just glad it didnt happen on the highway because that seriously could have hurt someone. I looked this issue up and found it is very common on these van's and a lot of people are having this happen. One door is now held on with a strap and the other one we got closed and back on but we cannot…

Takata recall paint is stripping and peeling off of vehicle. This is not acceptable as honda is a well known and reliable brand. There are other makes and models whos paint stands the test of time. What is honda's excuse for this problem that has effected numerous honda owners? How will they make this right?

Right (passenger) sliding cargo door fell off track and gouged the side panel of the van. The vehicle was stationary in driveway. Noticed in week prior to the incident that there was a grinding sound when opening door, and it would sometime catch and re-open when closing as though it hit an obstacle. Dealer mentioned maybe some sand or grit in assembly. In driveway, we opened door then walked away to throw something…

I cannot open the passenger side sliding door. (it is not a power sliding door) it was steadily getting harder to open. I barely got it closed as it would only open a short distance and i could barely slide it closed. Now i am afraid to try to open it as i am afraid it will get stuck open and i won't be able to close it at all.

Not long after we bought the car from a honda dealership (one previous owner) the passenger side door started freezing up. We could neither open nor close it properly. When we brought it in, we were shocked when the mechanic told us he saw the problem all the time on that model, and that we were lucky the door had not fallen off on us, because he had seen it happen to others. We have three little kids...most minivan…

Passenger side door closes and then opens slightly. The lock will not engage. Dashboard light always show that door is ajar. When making a turn yesterday the door actually opened all the way. My baby was sitting on that side. This is extremely dangerous.

My odyssey was parked and off i put my packages and attempted to close the sliding door. It would not close. After i looked in the manual for help i followed their instructions and the door came off the track and hung by just a very thin cable i could not drive it for fear of it falling completely off and damaging someone else's car or causing an accident. It also did a lot of body damage. Honda dealer in kenosha…

The front door detents are not strong enough, and they will allow the door to close by itself. If you are on an incline, or it is a windy day, this is especially dangerous for younger children, and myself, when getting in or out of the vehilce. Of note, honda uses the same detent, with the same part number, on a civic, which has a much smaller and lighter door, as it does on the odyssey, which has a much larger…

The nylon guide rollers on the passenger sliding door broke. These rollers apparently contribute to keeping the door up and inside the guide rail. This caused the door to drop and be suspended by the motorized cable that opens/closes the door and cantilevered off of the bottom guide. This happened after being parked and actuating the door. There was a sound of the nylon guides cracking and the slider hitting the…

Similar to campaign id # 12v062000 (for older 2008-09 odysseys), the tailgate on my 2010 odyssey has failed without any warning. Opening it via electrical buttons (in-car dashboard or remote buttons) results in the tailgate raising, bouncing up and down, then closing right back down. Opening it manually produces additional resistance to opening that wasn't there before the failure; then the tailgate refuses to stay…

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda odyssey. The contact stated that while parked and attempting to remove an object from the trunk, the object was found to be wet and molded. Upon further investigation, the contact noticed that the whole rear of the vehicle and the rear headliner were wet. The vehicle was taken to a dealer and diagnosed that the seams that meet the roof rails were separating. The vehicle was repaired…

Now we've all had many cars and some do better than others. The honda paint has to rank last on a long list of past paint jobs. It has literally peeled off the top of the car by the window and sunroof and has lost its clear coat so the paint just doesn't look good. When you ask them about it they responded we don't cover that . Honda, you make such a good car but cant get the paint right? C'mon. I see more white…

For the second time the rear passenger sliding door would not lock closed and the warning tone sounded. When i took it into the dealer for repair he said that the air bags could deploy if it wasn't fixed. The door latch had to be replaced. I am 71 years old and the door is very seldom used by my wife and i. I am concerned about the fact that the door could have come loose and deployed the air bags while i was…

Tail lights are susceptible to water penetration which will eventually short out the tail lights. This applies to the portion of the tail light which is attached to the rear hatch door. Water accumulates in the white part of the lens which is at the bottom of the tail light in 201 van (i.e., the back up lights). There is apparently a design or manufacturing defect in the sealed light system. I have had the gasket on…

The sliding door mechanism makes a rough, grinding sound. Have tried to lubricate them, but does not seem to help. Have owned previous odysseys and they never sounded this bad. *tr

We purchased a 2010 braun entervan in late 2011. It was new with 17 miles. We noticed water collecting under front seats at about 15000 miles. It was rusting our seat anchors which could lead to failure in a crash. It also has persistent steering problems and tire wearing at 15000 miles. It was returned to braun for repair because we insisted and worked closely with the braun corporation. They attempted repairs but…
