“Driver side power sliding door fell off. Had just parked. No previous issue, just came off the tracks and fell on me as it opened. Very alarming as my toddler was sitting in there in her car seat. I've now had to wait in 108 degree heat waiting for a mobile mechanic. This seems to be an ongoing issue with all Odyssey's and really needs to be recalled.”
NHTSA complaint #11232496, filed 2019-07, 170,000 miles“There is rust over the rear wheels on both sides. I have seen this on almost every single similar Honda Odyssey, same model as the 2006 model I own. The rust is on the body panels immediately over the rear wheels, on both the driver's and passenger sides. This has happened gradually, and occurs on no other part of the vehicle, so it is a quality control issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11045101, filed 2017-11, 120,000 miles“The 2 sliding doors open while the vehicle is in motion. This should not happen. The door closes and latches but becomes unlatched when driving at any speed. This is a safety issue. I have read about many other owners who have the same issue online. When we contact Honda they say it is not their problem and they won't fix it without me paying for it because my van is out of warranty. Please look into this because it is a safety issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11090159, filed 2018-04, 162,000 miles“I got my kids out of the van and went to close the door when I was closing the door it fell off in my hand luckily one of my children weren't closing the door as it would have crushed them”
NHTSA complaint #11302867, filed 2020-01, 172,000 miles“My car was parked in the front the house and its just caught fire we called the emergency and the fire truck the make report but the police didn't make any report”
