2010 Honda Odyssey Engine

ENGINE MOUNTS HAVE FAILED PREMATURELY. ENGINE MOVES AND JOLTS CAR EVERY TIME YOU COME TO A STOP OR WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION. THIS MOTION WAS FIRST NOTICED AROUND 72,000 MILES AND CONTINUED TO GET WORSE OVER TIME. HAVE SEEN ONLINE THAT MANY OTHER HONDA ODYSSEY DRIVERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM BETWEEN 65,000 AND 80,000 MILES DRIVEN. THIS IS A PART THAT SHOULDN'T FAIL THIS EARLY AND IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, 10/28/2014. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY ADVISE THE DTC CODE P3497. THEY ADVISED THAT THE ROCKET ARM BANK, OIL PRESSURE SWITCH, NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. A PRIOR INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 01/15/2014 WHERE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY ADVISED THE DTC CODE P3400. THEY ADVISED THAT THE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH WAS FAULTY. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. *TR

ENGINE FAILURE AT 1700 MILES. FRONT AND REAR CAMSHAFTS SEIZED, CAUSING VEHICLE TO BE DISABLED. FORTUNATELY I WAS ON A SECONDARY ROAD WITH LITTLE TRAFFIC AND JUST ABLE TO GET OFF HIGHWAY. REPLACED CYLINDER HEAD ASSEMBLIES,SPROCKETS, BELTS, GASKETS, ETC. OLD PARTS RETAINED BY DEALER. WE CALLED HONDA AMERICA CUSTOMER SERVICE 1-800-999-1009 AND SPOKE TO A GENTLEMAN NAMED DAVID, WHO WAS NOT HELPFUL AND WOULD NOT TRANSFER US TO ANYONE WITH ANY AUTHORITY. THE DEALER TOLD US HONDA AMERICA WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER 3.5 L ENGINES. FORTUNATELY NO ONE APPARENTLY HAS BEEN DISABLED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND KILLED BY LOSS OF CONTROL. *TR
