2003 Honda Odyssey UNKNOWN OR OTHER

MY IGNITION LOCKED UP LADT YEAR AFTER YEAR IF IT HANGING UP HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER WHERE THEY FIXED THE RECALL IN THE IGNITION BUT STATED THE LOCKING UP WAS UNRELATED. IT IS LESS THAN A YEAR AND IT IS HANGING UP AGAIN BUT THIS TIME IT INTERMITTINGLY WILL NOT CATCH TO START LIIKE A DEAD BATTERY IF YOU TRY ABT 3 TIMES IT STARTS. CALLED DEALER THEY DO NOT CARE AND NEITHER DOES HINDA CASE MANAGER THEY JUST WANT YOU TO GET PASS AIR BAGS FIXED. I WANT ALL FIXED AT ONCE. THIS WILL BE THIRD TRIP FOR AIRBAGS. DEALERS SO FAR AWAY AS HAVE TO RENT CAR . TOLD THEM I WAS NOT RENTING CAR AGAIN AS I FOUND OUT THEY GAVE SOME PEOPLE LOANERS. ANYWAY I NEED IGNITION FIXED AND I DO NOT WANT TO WAIT TIL IT HAS TO BE TOWED. I THINK IT IS A BAD PART RELATED TO THE OTHER IGNITION RECALL SND SO FORS MY MECHAUV. PATT HAS TO BE UNDER WARRANTY FRIM LAST YEAR BUT THEY WOULNIT EVEN LOOK IT UP JUST KEPT TELLING ME TO COME IN FORAIR BAG. I WANT ONE APT AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT IS KNOW THE IGNITION PERIOD SHOULD BE A RECALL. THE VAN WAS STATIONERY WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO START IT AND WAS ON STRRET HIGHWAY PARKING LOT ETC AS IT HAPPENED MANY TIMES. IT COULD ANY TIME START LOCKING UP WHEN ONE IS DRIVING AND ONE CAN NOT GET KEY OUT . NO PICS AS IT JUST LOOKS LIKE A BAN AND AN IGNWITH KEY

INTERLOCK SHIFT ISSUE. YOU CAN REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION WHILE IN DRIVE. THE ISSUE WAS INITIALLY CORRECTED VIA A RECALL. THE ISSUE IS NOW HAPPENING AGAIN. DEALERSHIP/ HONDA IS NOT WILLING TO FIX IT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T DUPLICATE ON A LEVEL SURFACE. IT REPEATEDLY HAPPENS WHEN I PULL INTO MY DRIVEWAY WHICH IS ON A SLANT. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE CAR STARTED ROLLING WHILE MY KIDS WERE GETTING OUT OF THE CAR. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT I CANNOT GET ADDRESSED. THIS ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT AND DOESN'T ALWAYS HAPPEN LIKE THEY SAY IT SHOULD. THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AT THE TIME OF ISSUE. IT OCCURS DURING THE PROCESS OF TURNING OFF THE CAR AND EXITING THE VEHICLE. DATES IT OCCURS SINCE JUNE OF 2017. MILEAGE WAS A LITTLE LESS THAN 159000 WHEN IT STARTED AGAIN.

TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER BEING BROUGHT IN ALREADY FOR THE RECALL

DASH CLUSTER LIGHTS STARTED DIMMING TCL LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF. CRUISE CONTROL WORKS THEN REVS HIGH ON HIGHWAY. REVERSING SOMETINES CLUNKS HARD.

MY CAR 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY WON'T SHIFT D3, D2, D1

AUTOMATIC DOOR ON DRIVERS SIDE DOES NOT LATCH FULLY AND WILL COME OPEN WHEN DRIVING.

MY WIFE HAD THE ACCELERATOR STUCK AT FULL THROTTLE WITH CANNON/WEATHERTECH FLOOR MATS TODAY AND IT GAVE HER QUITE A SCARE, ESPECIALLY SINCE OUR TEN YEAR OLD SON WAS ALSO IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME. SHE HAD IT FLOORED TO PASS A SLOW MOVING VEHICLE ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURRED. I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS GOING ON BECAUSE WITH THE VAN OFF AND IN THE GARAGE, IF I PUSHED THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN, IT HAD PLENTY OF CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE PEDAL AND THE FLOOR MAT. HOWEVER, ON FURTHER INSPECTION, I NOTICED THAT IF YOU PUSHED DOWN ON THE MAT APPROXIMATELY WHERE YOUR HEAL WOULD BE, IT PUSHED THE MAT DOWN INTO A DEPRESSION IN THE FLOORBOARD AND CAUSED THE FRONT LIP OF THE MAT TO RAISE UP. WHEN THE LIP OF THE MAT WAS RAISED UP, IT WOULD CATCH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND CAUSE IT TO STICK. TO REMEDY THE ISSUE WE CUT A BIG PIECE OUT OF THE FRONT LIP OF THE MAT AND THEN VERIFIED IT HAD PROPER CLEARANCE EVEN WHEN PUSHING THE MAT DOWN INTO THE DEPRESSION IN THE FLOORBOARD. WE'VE HAD THESE MATS OVER TEN YEARS AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US. I HOPE REPORTING THIS WILL ENABLE A RECALL OR SOMETHING TO PREVENT OTHERS FROM GETTING KILLED OR INJURED. I REALIZE THIS IS AN AFTERMARKET VEHICLE PRODUCT BUT HOPE YOU ARE STILL ABLE TO HELP. I FIGURED OUT THE SOURCE OF THE ISSUE BY RESEARCHING AND DISCOVERING THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS AS WELL.

I WAS DRIVING AT 30MPH WITH MY 2 SMALL CHILDREN WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR LOST POWER AND WOULD NO LONGER EXCEED 20MPH. I PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I THEN TURNED MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN WHICH HELPED FOR A FEW SHORT MINUTES BEFORE DOING THE SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN. I CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME PROCESS OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM THIS MORNING ONLY TO FIND OUT I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION I JUST BOUGHT THIS VAN 2 WEEKS AGO I AM THE SECOND OWNER

TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING BADLY AT UNDER 140,000 MILES. I AM ORIGINAL OWNER AND HAVE ALWAYS USED DEALER AS THE MECHANIC AND FOR RECALLS OR SERVICES. I HAD HIGHER EXPECTATIONS FROM HONDA CARS, TO GO LONGER. THE PRICE THEY QUOTED ME FOR REPAIR WAS OVER 5000$ JUST FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THE SERVICE WAS POOR AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED! THEY EVEN CHARGED ME 115$ JUST TO TELL ME MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING (WHICH I ALREADY KNEW)! THE CAR STARTED SLIPPING ON A MONDAY NIGHT. IT WAS LATE. I USED THE CAR TO DRIVE MY SON TO SCHOOL AT 7:30 IN THE AM ( 1.5 MILES FROM MY HOUSE) AND THE CAR WOULD NOT GO IN GEAR AFTER STOPPING TO LET MY SON OUT. I WAS BLOCKING THE SCHOOL DRIVE AND HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO HONDA. IT WAS CLEARLY NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THE DEALER SERVICE WAS NOT GREAT, EVEN AFTER GOING THERE AND BUYING MY CAR THERE ALL THESE YEARS. I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION AND I FEEL THAT IT WAS NOT PROPERLY RESOLVED!

THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TCS LITE WERE ON AND SHOWED TO A HONDA DEALER AND HE REPLACED A FAULTY ELECTRONIC COMPONENT. EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AND SHOWED AGAIN AND NOW THEY SAY IT IS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS REPLACEMENT, COSTS $4900. *TR

I AM WRITING TODAY WITH CONCERNS ABOUT MY 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE VEHICLE WAS RECENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR A TIMING BELT REPLACEMENT. MUCH TO MY DISMAY, I RECEIVED A CALL SAYING THAT THE FRONT AND SIDE ENGINE MOUNTS WERE BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $516.81. I MUST SAY THAT I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF ENGINE MOUNTS GOING BAD ON A VEHICLE AND NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. WE BOUGHT A HONDA ODYSSEY TO HAVE AS A RELIABLE FAMILY VAN THAT WE PLANNED TO KEEP FOR A WHILE. ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS WE BOUGHT A HONDA IS BECAUSE OF THE NOTED REPUTATION FOR BEING A SAFE AND RELIABLE AUTO BRAND. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE MOTOR MOUNT REPLACEMENT SHOULD CORRECT ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT WE REPORTED WITH THE VAN. THE TRANSMISSION REGULARLY MAKES A TERRIBLE CLUNKING NOISE WHEN IT IS SHIFTED FROM PARK TO REVERSE. WE ALSO REPORTED THIS SAME CLUNKING AND SOME SLIPPING IN THE TRANSMISSION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM. THESE PROBLEMS HAVE NEVER GONE AWAY AND WE HAVE GREAT CONCERNS ABOUT THE VIABILITY OF THE TRANSMISSION IN OUR ODYSSEY. FORTUNATELY IT HAS NOT LEFT US STRANDED ON THE ROADSIDE AND STUCK WITH A HUGE REPAIR BILL YET. OUR CONCERNS SEEM TO BE VALIDATED BASED ON THE INFORMATION WE HAVE READ ON VARIOUS WEB SITES ABOUT THE PROBLEMS AND FAILURES OF THE ODYSSEY'S TRANSMISSION. WE WENT AHEAD AND SPENT THE MONEY TO HAVE THE ENGINE MOUNTS REPLACED. HOWEVER, THIS HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE 'CLUNKING' NOISE WHEN SHIFTING THE VEHICLE FROM PARK TO REVERSE. I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT WE COULD DRIVE THIS VAN FOR SEVERAL YEARS TO COME AND ACCUMULATE WELL OVER 100,000 MILES BASED ON THE PURPORTED RELIABILITY OF THE HONDA BRAND. IT LOOKS LIKE THE MOTOR MOUNT ISSUE AS WELL AS THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS SHOULD PROMPT A RECALL FOR THIS MODEL YEAR DUE TO THE VOLUME OF ISSUES. *TT

THIS VEHICLES CAME EQUIPPED WITH P225/60R16 TIRE SIZES. THE NORMAL LOAD INDEX OF THIS TYPE OF TIRE 98, WHICH CAN CARRY A MAXIMUM LOAD OF 1653 POUNDS. THE MAXIMUM LOAD THE FRONT TWO TIRES CAN CARRY IS 3,306 POUNDS. THE CURB WEIGHT OF HONDA ODYSSEY IS 4.509 POUNDS. NORMALLY 70 % OF THE GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT IS ON THE STEERING AXEL. THAT MEANS THAT FRONT OF THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE ABOUT 3,200 POUNDS OF WEIGHT WITHOUT ANY DRIVER OR PASSENGER IN THIS VEHICLE. A NORMAL DRIVER AND PASSENGER WOULD WEIGH ABOUT 350 POUNDS TOGETHER. THUS IT CAN BE SEEN THAT HONDA ODYSSEY TIRE SIZES WAS SELECTED INADEQUATELY TO MEET ITS LOADING REQUIREMENTS. THE TIRE SIZE WERE DESIGNED INADEQUATELY TO CARRY THE DESIGN LOAD OF THIS VEHICLE RESULTING IN PREMATURE WEAR OUT OF TIRES OR POSSIBLE TIRE BUSTING DUE TO CONTINUOUS OVER LOAD ON DESIGNED CAPACITY. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR CORRECTIVE ACTIONS. FOR YOUR INFORMATION NEW HONDA ODYSSEY NOW COMES STANDARD WITH 235/65R17 TIRES, APPROPRIATE TIRE SIZE OF LOADING CAPACITY. WHY CONSUMERS OF 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY ARE PUNISHED FOR MANUFACTURING DEFECTS AND POSSIBLE HARM IN OPERATING IT.? *TR

I BOUGHT A 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY AND THE TRANSMISSION HAS AN ISSUE FOR ACCELERATION FROM 20~40MPH, WHICH IT LOOKS LIKE THE GEAR NOT HOOKED UP. I HAD THE HONDA DEALER CHECK UP AND THEY DIDN'T THINK THE TRANSMISSION HAD ISSUE. THIS KIND OF INCIDENT HAPPENED MANY TIMES STARTING FROM LAST OCTOBER TO NOW. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY. IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. *LN

WHILE DRIVING UPHILL OUR 2003 HONDA ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION FAILED AND WE DANGEROUSLY ROLLED DOWN THE HILL INTO A SIDE STREET, WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR. WE HAD IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF 1/4 OF ORIGINAL PRICE OF CAR. HONDA AGREED TO PAY 43% OF INFLATED DEALERSHIP ESTIMATE, WHICH CLEARLY IS AN ADMISSION OF A DEFECTIVE AND UNSAFE TRANSMISSION. AFTER REPAIR IS MADE WE WERE STILL LEFT WITH AN OUTRAGEOUS BILL THAT WE CANNOT AFFORD. HONDA HAS A PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO REIMBURSE 100% OF REPAIR COSTS TO MAKE ODYSSEYS SAFE FOR TRANSPORTING FAMILIES.
