“2010 Odyssey w/ about 70k miles. Engine started misfiring. There was a recall on this, but Honda is saying it expired, and I am not eligible for cost coverage, and the repairs only have a 50% chance of fixing the issue. I bought the car used in 2019, and they say the recall expired 8 years after make year. I was driving my family to the beach and it began struggling to accelerate. White smoke was coming out exhaust.”
NHTSA complaint #11328488, filed 2020-06, 70,000 miles“The vehicle was in motion, when the check engine light started flashing and the vehicle started jerking. I rushed to the dealership and I was informed that there was misfiring and they had to update the software, replace the spark plugs. They also informed that the piston rings were leaking and some of the engine oil was burnt, I also heard that this was an issue on this vehicle that others had faced, a class action lawsuit had been filed where Honda had provided a warranty extension and not a recall, so the issue will have to be handled by me. …”
NHTSA complaint #11278229, filed 2019-11, 104,700 miles“I went to the ourisman Honda of laurel sevice department to have them to replace the fuel pump system due to a recall that I was initially unaware of. They stated that they would fix the issue at no cost. Later, I received a voicemail that stated they were unable to fix the fuel pump system due to the conversion of the van. I was told that the fuel pump system was moved to a different area when the van was converted to a wheelchair accessible vehicle. Therefore, they made claims to not have normal access to the fuel pump system. They have now declared the recall repairs to be null and void. …”
NHTSA complaint #11203321, filed 2019-04, 56,000 miles“Stopped vehicle at a stoplight that was red. Had foot on the brake. Noticed that the engine wanted to rev up and take off. Applied brake pressure harder to keep the vehicle from lurching out into oncoming vehicle. Threw the gear selector into neutral. Engine no longer went into acceleration and back to normal. I made sure that there was not any floor mat or something on the accelerator to cause this problem. This is the second time this has happened with this vehicle. I will be taking the vehicle into Honda to see what they say.”
NHTSA complaint #10689867, filed 2015-02, 80,000 miles“I had to replace the fuel pump in my van. I was not aware that there was a recall previously issued for the problem in my 2010 year van. I would like to be reimbursed by the manufacturer for my problem. I also have had to replace both side power sliding doors within the last year or two and they are both going to need repair again as the doors will not stay closed. They close all the way and then pop back open leaving them on and the open door sound indicators remains on. Also when turning, the door will close and then open back up creating air to come through the openings. …”
