    My wife's 2012 odyssey touring was parked on the ramp to our garage, with the emergency brake on. I released the brake and applied slight pressure to the accelerator with the car in reverse gear: it lurched backward and the brake could not stop it, though a neighbor's garage did. When i drove it forward to park it the car sped forward thirty feet or so before it obeyed the brake. The garage will need a new door --…

    Vehicle affected is a 2008 honda odyssey. While driving various speeds, the abs would erroneously activate and caused the vehicle to suddenly decelerate. During the failure, the vehicle stability control warning indicator illuminated. The if coming to a complete stop, auto would not go into gear when accelerator pressed. Worked better in d2, still having same issues. And reverse not working at all. Burning smell…

    The vehicle completely shuts down and off intermittently when the auto idle stop function is engaged. This happens when we are in traffic on a highway and streets or at stop signs and stopping briefly and and the vehicle goes into park and must be re-started by pressing the "on/off" button. It is very scary and dangerous. Also i get an error message saying the vehicle's "heated seat system problem". Secondly the…

In a about mile long straight stretch i came upon a cyclist using the center of my lane and climbing one of the hills. I coasted a little bit slower and then moved fully into the oncoming lane to give the cyclist plenty of room. At this…
