“My 2000 Honda Odyssey automatic doors don't work. I don't trust them because it could trap my young daughter plus when they fail to close all the way seems dangerous. I know that so many people are having the same problem. Why don't you people do something about this?”
NHTSA complaint #10276591, filed 2009-07, 80,000 miles“My 2000 lx Honda Odyssey have a problem with the sliding doors leading them to get stuck and we are not able to open them. We live in fl and there are different temperature through the year and this will happen all year round. After talking to the dealer and extensive research we realize that we are not the only ones with this problem. I think that Honda should take a look at these models and acknowledge that they are faulty. Thanks!”
NHTSA complaint #10214664, filed 2008-01, 80,000 miles“We (my wife and I) have a 2000 Honda Odyssey ex. The automatic electric sliding doors are constantly breaking and they cost a small fortune to repair. We purchased the Honda because of their reputation for creating reliable automobiles. At a minimum, they should offer a way to convert the door from automatic to manual so they can be safely closed and so the automatic mechanism doesn't have to be repaired every 6 months.”
NHTSA complaint #10165412, filed 2006-08, 81,000 miles“I have a 2000 Honda Odyssey. Two weeks ago, my sliding door sensor went off for no reason. The doors were closed but when the vehicle was placed into drive the alarm in the car would sound as if one of the doors was open. I checked the doors and after a couple of times of opening and closing them, the alarm did not sound. I was due to have the car serviced for its 75,000 mile service so I waited to bring it into the dealership. …”
NHTSA complaint #10139435, filed 2005-10, 74,850 miles“I am the owner of a 2000 Honda Odyssey and am having problems with the rear sliding door not closing. It requires us to drive with the light on which is a safety issue at night. The buzzer sounds intermittently causing us to manually turn off power to the door hence trapping our passengers in the car should there be an accident. My mechanic indicates that there are no technical service bulletins on this problem. This is an incessant problem and a major safety hazard.”
