Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Our van has two broken motor mounts. Most of our car's mileage is highway and easy driving. There seems to be no good reason for why they are broken. Judging from the experience of others on-line, it would appear that the design is poor and the cost to repair them (replace) is extremely high. Not sure if this falls within your area of review or not.”

NHTSA complaint #10463505, filed 2012-06, 113,000 miles

“My 2006 Honda odyssy minivan has had all 4 motor mounts fail; I am informed that his could result in in a hazardous condition, including a transmission failure while driving. Honda has offered no explanation as to why this would happen to my car, which had approximately 92,000 miles on it at the time of detection.”

NHTSA complaint #10407623, filed 2011-06, 90,000 miles

“My Odyssey's motor mount failed last year before I hit 100,000. I was recently told that I need to replace the other three. It is my understanding that this is an ongoing problem with the vehicle, and Honda should recall the vehicles for this defect.”

NHTSA complaint #10482337, filed 2012-10, 160,000 miles

“Front motor mount broken. I have taken good care of this van and do not drive aggressively. I have had every recommended maintenance service (10k, 15k, etc. Etc.) after looking on line, I see that this is a common problem. Obviously a design flaw!”

NHTSA complaint #10447879, filed 2012-02, 85,000 miles

“I own a 2006 Honda Odyssey and I have been having many problems with this vehicle. The most recent problem is with my AC. It worked one day and the very next day it stopped working. Given the fact that I ve had previous problems, I decided to google the internet just to see if anyone else have been having similar problems. And sure enough I came across many others that have been experiencing the same problems.”
