“Sunroof get popped up 2 times in 3months, this is safety hazard for me and my family member! When I report to dealership and Honda ! Seems they don't even care about this issue. I had police report show there is no object hit to body and it's just glass get broke by itself when drive in highway !! It's very scary to ride Honda Odyssey 2019”
NHTSA complaint #11387298, filed 2021-01, 29,000 miles“The non-power tailgate on my 2019 Honda Odyssey ex only opens to, a head bashing, about 5 ft 10 in. Me, my wife, and my 13-year daughter repeatedly hit our heads on the liftgate. The 2019-2021 trims with power liftgate open higher than 6ft 2 inches. Also, prior generations (pre-2019) of honday Odyssey liftagtes opened higher than 6 ft. With our current 2019 ex trim me, my wife, and our 13-year-old daughter all have to duck every time we load/unload the trunk. The dealer told me it's normal for the ex liftgate to open only 5ft 10in or so. …”
NHTSA complaint #11397384, filed 2021-02, 19,000 miles“Rear lift gate was not properly manufactured and was leaking water that could lead to mold growth. Issue was taken into service 3 separate times and different leaks were found each time. Honda corporate provided no assistance or support for resolving this issue and couldn't even find records of the complaint (I called and started a case each time - thank goodness I maintain records on this). Apparently, Honda corporate has no concern about water leaks or the quality of their manufactured product once it is sold to a consumer.”
NHTSA complaint #11323163, filed 2020-05, 3,000 miles“I bought my 2019 Honda Odyssey ex-l navi res yesterday on 9/15/18. While the vehicle was parked and stationary, I attempted to open the passenger door using the driver button. It would open and then about halfway it would close. I attempted this several times with the same result. I then tried to open using the passenger exterior handles but still the same result. When it started to close again I tried to see if it would open if I manually did it but it almost crushed my hand. Luckily it was only my shirt that got stuck. I was able to force it open using my shoulders. …”
NHTSA complaint #11129729, filed 2018-09, 178 miles“Inside panel of sliding door keeps popping off. This obstructs opening and closing of door. Sometimes the panel is so far disengaged that the door cannot be opened from tbe outside due to contact with the body of the van. This has occurred multiple times and has had numerous unsucccessful repairs made by the dealer.”
