Example complaints

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

“While picking up my 2006 Honda Odyssey from the dealership {due to a repair from a recall} I'm informed that I need to replace my motor mounts '. My van is only 4 years old at this point and this will cost ~ over $1,000.00! This causes lag upon acceleration and vibration at higher speeds {and will be much worse when all 3 mounts fail}. Why is Honda placing such substandard parts in its vehicles?”

NHTSA complaint #10662637, filed 2014-12, 89,000 miles

“I believe there is a design flaw in the air conditioning system that leaves it vulnerable to road debris that can pass through the grill and pierce the condenser leading to loss of freon and no A/C. This happened to us on monday and after searching the web I see many other Honda Odyssey owners have experienced the same.”

NHTSA complaint #10230079, filed 2008-06, 50,000 miles

“I have found 1000+ people with this exact same problem and yet cannot find that Honda has done anything about it. The audio for the wireless dvd input stops after 10 - 20 minutes of watching a dvd. It just starts to buzz and fails to work. I have found threads where some Honda dealerships are not charging for the fix while others are. The audio works on the wireless headphones on all other inputs (am/fm, cd, aux) just not dvd.”

NHTSA complaint #10365591, filed 2010-11, 50,000 miles

“The air conditioning condenser has leaked with no apparent rock damage. This is the second time it has happened to my 2006 Honda Odyssey. The first time it was eventually covered by Honda USA. The local dealer would not cover it. I have not heard back from Honda if they will cover it the second time.”

NHTSA complaint #10214468, filed 2008-01, 24,800 miles

“Air conditioner failed in my 2006 Honda Odyssey, just one year after purchase and barely used. Dealer claimed rock damage and not covered by the extended warranty that I purchased with the car. Many other Honda Odyssey owners had similar problems as posted in google search. It is clearly a design problem from Honda.”

NHTSA complaint #10199305, filed 2007-08, 10,000 miles
