While driving on a city street, a car pulled out in front of me so i had to quickly hit my breaks to avoid a car accident with the other car but in the process the 2nd row passenger seat that is directly behind the driver seat automatically flipped down then flew forward ramming the back of my seat and my back very hard. Luckily my son was sitting on the opposite side of the van and was not sitting in that seat. But…

Passenger side rear seat is ejecting from the floor board and is reclining on it's own when breaking or going forward. Both on city & highway. It happened first on the highway going 65 and my husband had to suddenly brake because another car cut him off and our 8 yr old son was sitting in the seat and suddenly went forward and sideways and the seat reclined and would not stay in position. The seat came off the floor…

2nd row seat swung forward suddenly while i was driving and braked at a stoplight. I believe this is exactly what is described in the current recall of honda odysseys. My daughter rammed her chin against the front seat.

My 2012 honda odyssey had a problem with the 2nd (back) row lever or latch - i couldn't get it to properly latch. It caused the seat to be loose and it would go backwards sometimes when i stopped. On october 6, 2016, i paid $345.00 to honda of jefferson city to get this problem fixed. I want honda to refund my $345.00.

2nd row seat flipped forward during moderately hard braking, injuring my child with a busted lip and scratches. She was 6 yrs old and secured in a 5 pt harness child safety seat that was secured into this 2nd row seat. The seat flipped forward with her in it causing her to strike the back of the front passenger seat. The seat can be manual unlatched for removal and to slide it sideways, which we had done. Apparently…

I was driving on the road not far from my home. My son was sitting behind me on the car seat. And when i was stepping on the brake and the vehicle was stopped, i heard a huge bang behind me and then suddenly my son's crying! I looked behind me and surprisingly found that the seat behind me on which my son and his car seat was sitting flipped over and hit my seat in the back. My son's face was injured and bleeding.…

I'm submitting this now in response to an event that happened several years ago, triggered by a dec. 27 2017 recall notice. My vehicle is not listed as affected but i believe it should be because the same problem happened to me about 3 years ago. On that day, a second row outboard seat tipped forward and banged against the back of the driver's seat during a sudden deceleration (we were going down a small hill toward…
