"1 sliding door motor is getting weak - won't pull the door "uphill" without help"

"Whit normal use for a family of 6, they stop to work"

"sliding doors often won't open. Have to click door locks on and off several times and it usually solves problem"

"left rear door sticks shut. very hard to convince passenger to shoulder it hard to pop the back edge loose"

"Sliding door actuator had to be replaced"

"The automatic van doors reach a point where they will not operate on an incline because some part in the track has worn out. We had one door repaired 2 years ago, and need to have the other door repaired now. Poor design"

"The left rear door would not unlock as the latch handles were disconnected"

"The tail gate would not always latch closed and on occasion would fall open while driving"

"Hatch strut failed causing rear hatch window to shatter"

"Wiring comes detached and needs tone reattached for the brake lights"

"I went to dealer to have bulb replaced in light that shines overhead. Was told whole unit would have to be replaced, as problem was not the bulb"

"Interior lights over the driver/passenger seats come on when the doors open and dim and turn off automatically when doors are closed. These lights can also be turned on by a panel switch.

Last time I purchased the module for about $85 and installed it myself"

"The right interior light on the passenger side started " shorting out" while the car was still under warranty.

"This problem came up and we found out that the computer lost all memory and had to be reprogrammed"

"Both Honda and other mechanics are unable to fix this problem"

"Brakes seem to wear out quickly"

"NEEDEDLEFT FRONT CALIPER, REAR BRAKE PADS & ROTORS"

"This repair was replacement of the second set of brakes. Not too bad, but I didn't expect to need cut rotors as well, as brake replacements were well before metal-on-metal. Also, the cost of replacement at the dealer of ~$375 front and ~$330 rear"

"Just needed new brake pads"

"Generally the brakes seem to be undersized and do not stop the car adequately"

"Have had Hondas (one Pilot + 2 Odyssesys) since 2003 and driven them well over 500,00 miles. Rotators are too small for these and wear out at 50-75K miles. Brakes should be bigger"

"paint peeling, cracking"

"A couple of dime-size places where paint popped off, too big for touch-up paint"

"Paint peeled off front hood after washing it and just after it ran out of full warranty. Not sure why it did not peel when it was being washed. The dealer we purchased it from gave us some goodwill money but it still cost $500"

"Clear coat peeled on hood, roof, ledge adjacent to window"

"Scratches easy, shows marks looks worn"

"white paint not bonded to primer. One chip means paint pealing. light sanding and Rustolim seams to halt it. plastic strips over roof joints are shrinking and flap in the wind. I put shoe good under strips and on the front edges to stop it. I am to far away from a dealer to keep running in"

"large area of roof paint peeled off"

"sliding door only paint chipping I think the door was painted. I bought this car NEW in 2008"

"A couple of bad spots on roof just above windshield. I didn't want it to get any bigger and/or start rusting, so had entire roof painted by dealer. In process black rubber roof trim pieces were loosened & shortly after has to be replaced"

"Dealers denied that there were widespread paint problems with my Taffeta white paint falling off in huge sheets. It can be peeled off easily. Rust began forming in primer and dealer took pictures to show regional manager who said it was the first they had heard of bad paint. They wanted me to go to a shop of their choice for repairs and only offered a few hundred dollars for painting most of the van which would a few thousand dollars. I will never buy another Honda vehicle. I have cost them coun"

"I just noticed an area of rust starting to form on a back panel. That should not be happening"

"This engine can shut off 2 cylinders for better mpg, but does cause leaky valves or oil prier problem in head. at about 100k miles. I't a common repair, but was less then I expected about $400"

"Engine light on resulted in the dealer keeping my car for about 10 days to repair oil getting into the cylinders (sounds like a ring problem to me, although Honda never called it that)"

"I had an oil consumption problem for several years this year it got so bad, (a quart every 1000 miles), Honda dealer finally change the piston rings on a couple of cylinders the engine is still smoking on start up after seating overnight"

"This vehicle uses approx. 1 quart of oil every 1k miles. It has damanged the catalytic converter and the plugs continuously foul. We became aware of this problem after the vehicle reached 120k miles"

"Started hearing a clicking noise from the engine which varied with engine speed. Dealer and an independent garage diagnosed it as camshaft problem. I had the garage do the work, one of the camshafts had metal missing from a rocker contact pad on the shaft. Appears there was a flaw in the shaft casting at the spot which allowed the metal to flack off. Was not cheap to fix"

"Piston ring wear causing oil to foul plugs"

"it was suggested that it be replaced by my dealer in Decatur,IL"

"Engine light came on and dealer replaced spark plugs for no cost"

"Sometimes starter would only click when starting the car. Had to be replaced"

"$644 to replace battery cable assembly by dealer. Dealer said I could have avoided it by spraying the battery terminals with a sealer. So why didn't the dealer or manufacturer do that originally?!"

"Terrible outdated CD based GPS with moving parts. Extremely expensive system to update or repair. Should be solid state with SD cards to update. GPS was designed to fail and it frequently glitches. A real money maker for Honda dealer. SHAME!"

"Nav system would freeze up, then eventually stopped working. GPS computer under drive seat failed, specifically the built in DVD drive. Was VERY expensive to replace, dealer wanted $1,200, was finally able to remove and send to Alpine Electronics for repair, for $300 and I did the labor"

"We moved to a colder climate, then we started having oil leaks in different places around the engine during the winter months"

"Actually, I don't think it is leaking, but it uses a lot of oil. (2+ quarts in 7000 miles). We have the engine with cylinder deactivation, and according to what we raw on Google there is an issue with this engine, but the dealer said that there was no issue in their experience. Don't know if there's was any damage to the engine before we discovered this, but now we check the oil level and add oil regularly"

"While we had the vehicle in for a timing belt and water pump replacement (scheduled maintenance) the tech noticed an oil leak with a gasket or seal on the top part of the engine. I can't remember the exact problem/location. The cost of the repair was $600+"

"This vehicle leaks oil from the valve covers and within the engine. It burns oil, about a court every other week, and Honda said that Was 'normal.'"

"Warranty/Safety Recall - I had not experienced any problem myself"

"Recall on fuel pump - cap would crack, allowing it to collect gas which in hot engine, could start fire. Fixed by dealer"

"Fuel pump cover was repaired under recall procedures due to possible fuel leaks. Never experienced any leakage"

"Check engine light is on due to the catalytic converter failing/not performing properly. This is directly related to the vehicle engine consuming oil at the rate of 1 quart every 1k miles"

"Loss of power. Known Odyssey problem. specific part was replace by my mechanic. Fixed problem. Not expensive"

"the relay that engages/disengages the AC compressor went bad. Easy repair, but required professional diagnosis"

"VSA failed. Initially not covered under warranty, but then Honda agreed to replace the part under warranty, however, we paid for the labour"

"It required a software upgrade"

"Simply a reprogramming of the computer was required to stop the incorrect shift points and the odd gritty noise heard on higher gears sometimes. Was covered under warranty"

"The transmission has had a very bad shudder between 1-2nd gear since new , many software upgrades(4-6)over the years have been done along with a torque converter change a few years back which have not fixed the issue"

"Transmission pump went-"
