Honda Odyssey

"Display screen sometimes freezes up until the next time I restart the car. Potential safety issue if I wish to make an emergency call from the car controls. Also will sometimes block the blind spot camera from displaying."

"When I made a right turn the camera came on and wouldn't reset when the turn signal was returned to normal. When I backed down my driveway the back up camera came on and wouldn't return to normal when I put the car in drive. The dealer was not able to tell why this happened. In both instances I turned the ignition off at the next stoplight and the condition then returned to normal."

"The display systems are terrible in both Hondas. I would like them to return to more knobs."

"when it rains hard my radio display screen goes blank"

"A couple of times back-up camera was blank and a few times when I turned my right turn signal on, the camera on the passenger side of the van was blank and/or responded very slowly."

"The display for the car entertainment system will randomly go black. The only workaround that we have is to turn off the car and turn it on again. That isn't always an option when driving on the highway. I believe the problem occurs when it the side camera for blind spots is activated."

"Same as previous problem. The screen displays are hard to work, are useless and need to return to the old fashion knobs."

"The antenna for the Sirius Satellite radio failed and had to be replaced."

"The satellite antenna unit had to be replaced."

"Navigation system has had problems since purchased the vehiclw. Besides the voice command not following instructions, the locater of services only works on 1/8 th of mile or less and Handa's own people didn't know this when I called. Reference to this limitation is located in the back of the manual in a very short couple of sentences. Maps are several years old. Have had roads not located on map that are over 5 years old even though I had latest software and map update. This system can't compare"

"you can not control the voice volume on the GPS. When driving on the highway, you can not hear the GPS direction command (too noisy in the vehicle at higher speeds and the volume can not be increased; or decreased?). Honda dealership mechanics said there is no volume for their GPS"

"Far too complicated to use, unreliable driving directions"

"Disc info not handy. Needed to print out 52 pages. Still cannot use navigation. Still use Garmin with suction cup on nav screen.Whole car computerized and cannot use while driving as screen calls for eyes to be taken off road. If I had known this car"

"inaccurate MAPS operation of Nav, phone, when driving"

"My wife and I both have iPhones. I have a iPhone 7 plus and my wife ahs a iPhone 6S plus. We both have encountered issues with Bluetooth pairing with the radio where it will not connect or take up to 5 minutes to pair. There are also occasional issues where the radio has issues maintaining a connection with Bluetooth. It will usually correct itself after a few minutes, but can be an issue when on a call"

"It will not dial the phone number I verbally ask it to whether I am driving or a passenger. Sometimes it is extremely hard to hear/understand what people say"

"Sometimes doesn't work"

"Made and received calls but other person could not hear us on both incoming and outgoing calls."

"Honda bluetooth causes my iPhone 6 to crash"

"was told the iphone has problems paring with this vehicle... had to stop using iphone, because it inactived some features and turned on others"

"It usually takes 2 to 15 minutes for my iPhone to connect. This greatly upsets me and Honda says this is within performance specifications. In the Prius Bluetooth connectivity is instantaneous"

"I was able to pair my phones (iPhone and an LG) and an iPod and an iPad to the system but several months ago it suddenly dropped linkage to everything but the iPhone. I have not been able to re-establish linkage and no-one at the dealership is able to help me."

"Radio would randomly changes screens and stations with no one touching it"

"The antenna to the serius radio station broke and was expensive to get fixed."

"The screen is difficult to manuver and you have to take your eyes off driving to change stations, etc"

"The Sirius Xm radio in the vehicle stopped receiving satellite signal. Determined that it was the onboard antenna, not the Sirius XM service."

"Satellite radio needed new antenna. Car at dealer for 2 days. Very expensive. They fixed the problem."

"Te screen would not descend. The dealer had to replace the screen"

"The speakers suddenly stopped working in the 2015 Honda Odyssey."

"Talk button did not work, then starts working again"

"one button scrolls info up another scrolls info down. Waste of buttons when looking for other info that is not there"

"Unresponsive HondaLink. Misinterprets commands"

"Voice controls do not comprehend voice commands and several others have tried. Honda dealer says can't help. Honda doesn't have answer except what is in their manual.. Tell it to phone someone, goes somewhere on its own. Tell it to go somewhere same result. Gave up don't use.i"

"Voice commands need to be repeated, sometimes doesn't work even after numerous attempts"

"The weatherstrip around the windshield on the passenger side had lots of wind noise before it blew off while driving on an Interstate. A new weatherstrip was installed and the problem is now resolved - no more excess wind noise"

"The B-pillar and the front bushings and rear bushings made a lot of noise and had to be replaced and repaired"

"The Honda sometimes sounds as if something is getting dislodged when I hit a bump in the road or when backing out of the driveway. There have been several times when I've actually stopped the vehicle and gotten out to verify that nothing is hanging loose or dripping for the vehicle. I hear it the most when going into or out of the garage"

"I have a lot of squeaks coming from my car after 38K miles. They started at about 10K miles in. I don't think a van close to 40K in MSRP should do this. Perhaps the techs should be trained on addressing these items as part of maintenance to provide more peace of mind for a vehicle that is supposed to be #1 in it's class"

"Front seats, armrests make terrible clicking sounds when putting any weight on them. Local Honda dealer says it's normal and refuses to service or replace. That is unacceptable. The loud, click, click, click, sound is very annoying"

"Hatch rattles over road imperfections. Very annoying"

"Drivers side b pillar defect"

"Brand new april 13, 2015 - Middle seat makes a lot of noise on any road bump"

"rattle in rear tailgate. Fixed by dealer. Fine now"

"Had a noise in the panel between the driers side front door and sliding door. I also have a noise in the shocks I think"

"struts made noise, had to be replaced"

"Sounded like styrofoam squeaking, dealer fixed it"

"Suspension is very noisy when you hit a bump. Additionally, when the car has a full to half a tank of gas, you can hear the gas moving/swooshing around when you drive, turn or park"

"The road noise at times was so loud it was hard to talk."

"Noises likely arose from an accident by the previous owner. Additionally, it is handicapped modified which may be a contributor to the source of the noises."

"Wind noise is very bad"

"Metal to metal noise. Sounds as if something is loose. Honda dealer cannot hear it. I can and so can others. Noise reminds me of loose exhaust/tailpipe/muffler I experienced in previous, older cars I have owned."

". Passenger side sliding door creaking sound when starting from a stop. Not related to sealsor weather stripping. Dealer service dept. unable or unwilling to fix. . Rear small seat rumbles caused by loose fitting rod with ball joints. Dealer service dept. unable or unwilling to fix. These noises are very irritating during low speed driving. The vehicle is a rattle trap."

"Cannot hear or talk in van on the highway-- worst vechicle"

"At 40 mph the wind noise is terrible. I went back to the dealer and the Service Manager went for a ride with me and agreed with me, but, he also stated he didn't sell them, he only fixed them but could not dd anything with this..When taking a test drive, I had to stay in the parking lot for some reason or other so top speed was about 10 mph. After a few lies, my wife who was affected by Alzheimers said let's take it and go home. Ergo I bought the doggone thing and have regretted it ever since"

"Even with the windows closed it is noisy. When you open the window it is very noisy even at slow speeds. My 2003 was much quieter"

"Terrible wind noise around the windshield"

"Road noise is the only complaint I have about this Honda. This is my second one. Knowing it is not cool to own a mini van it can’t be beat for comfort, space, and ease of driving."

"Wind and road noise can get pretty loud in the cabin"

"Have had excessive wind noise since the day we bought it new."

"Too much wind noise on highway"

"THe 2015 Honda Odyssey I bought in November, last year was my third one starting in 2003. All 3 models have excessive internal road noise from traveling vehicles and weather wind gusts"

"wind noise around the windshield and waternoise under rear doors"

"Noise levels on freeway is high. while driving, i cannot hear my son talk to me from the third row, and i have to turn off the audio to listen to him. Acoustic windshield would have probly helped"

"Wind noise at highway speeds makes it difficult for conversation and listening to radio/cd/playlists."

"Wind noise from top of windshield. New development. Seal seemed to have come off after dealer wash, they reattached and we didn't notice problem til months later."

"THE INTERIOR NOISE CAUSED BY THE WIND IS ENOUGH TO MAKE CONVERSATION WITH THE OCCUPANTS OF THE BACK SEATS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. I CONSTANTLY AM CHECKING TO INSURE THE WINDOWS ARE FULLY CLOSED."

"Caliper wasn't releasing the pad and the outside pad on right rear would wear prematurely. Changed rotor, pad and caliper."

"I dont know what came first. Bad calipers? Bad rotors? Also premature wearing out of set of tires @ less than 30,000 miles."

"Within 12000 miles, downhill braking shaking. I took it to dealer who said I must be riding the breaks too much. Not true, I am a good driver. Brakes repaired but I had to pay."

"This problem started occurring at about 35,000 miles on the vehicle. I have never owned a vehicle where I had a problem with pulsations in the brakes when braking. It became quite severe, and when I took it in they told me my rotors were warped. There was little wear on the brake pads, either front or rear. It was a quite expensive repair, and rotors were not replaced, but turned. Reviewing the internet regarding this problem indicates that others have experienced the same problem on this vehicle. Being an engineer and having experience in vehicle brakes, it appears to me that the rotors were not designed well enough to dissipate the heat developed under normal driving conditions. It is frustrating that Honda seems to consider this normal wear, and is not supporting customers with resolving the issue. Apparently there is a newly designed rotor that is better vented that corrects this problem. The other issue I have is that the problem will most likely reoccur prematurely since the rotors were only turned and not replaced. I hope that I will trade in the vehicle before that happens."

"Pulsation on brake pedal and steering wheel. I replaced rotors"

"Front rotors started warping in less than a year, replaced rotors and pads at the dealer. Driving was normal, neither spouse or I ride our brakes. Then, it happened again within 8 months, had to replace front set again. After research, determined that many Odyssey owners have the same problem, but Honda will not acknowledge the problem. The only solution was to purchase specialty drilled and slotted rotors that dissipate heat adequately. The Odyssey is a heavy vehicle chassis with only 13.3 inch rotors. The only way to avoid warping in normal driving was to purchase high performance-type rotors. We have spoken to many persons who have had similar problems with the Odyssey. Very disappointed in Honda. Would still have this problem if we had not researched ourselves."

"Loud noticeable pulsation going down steep grades. Shakes the car. UNRESOLVED"

"This CPO vehicle exhibited vibration during moderate to heavy braking from day one. This vibration was essentially identical to that experienced with our 2005 Odyssey EX-L, purchased new. In both cases, vibration was MOSTLY eliminated when I installed after-market brake pads. Honda dealers, in each case, did nothing...but keep putting us off."

"When braking under a heavy load, rotors appear to heat up and temporarily warp causing steering wheel to oscillate."

"Normal wear"

"Rotors required resurfacing with just 15,000 miles. Very unusual"

"Had to have rotors turned at 35,000 and replaced at 56,000. 3rd Odyssey I had to do this too. Low quality rotors"

"Rotors on rear had to be replace due to being warped and causing significant vibration"

"Front rotors started warping in less than a year, replaced rotors and pads at the dealer. Driving was normal, neither spouse or I ride our brakes. Then, it happened again within 8 months, had to replace front set again. After research, determined that many Odyssey owners have the same problem, but Honda will not acknowledge the problem. The only solution was to purchase specialty drilled and slotted rotors that dissipate heat adequately. The Odyssey is a heavy vehicle chassis with only 13.3 inch rotors. The only way to avoid warping in normal driving was to purchase high performance-type rotors. We have spoken to many persons who have had similar problems with the Odyssey. Very disappointed in Honda. Would still have this problem if we had not researched ourselves."

"We had a problem with the rotors TWICE. The dealership claims that the rotors warp from the heat created while braking. The brakes would chatter when stopping. we had to pay to have them machined. Never had this in any car before."

"Front rotors were bumpy and worn, causing vibration while braking at 56000 miles. The brake pads were not worn much, but I had to replace both rotors and pads at this mileage. Feel that should not have been required for about 20-30,000 miles more."

"Rotors required replacement prematurely"

"Regular wear"

"The rotors warped within less than a year, causing pulsation of the brakes and less effective braking."

"There is s shimmy when braking from high speeds. It is more pronounced when the steering wheel is slightly turned."

"Rotors went bad after 24 months of operation. Warranty only covers 12 months. The told me I must be a hard driver. That is a joke; everyone tells me I drive like a grandma. Two mechanics told me the wear was suspect (whey weren't the break pads wearing? why the rotors so fast?) but Honda refused to pay for even the parts to replace."

"Warped rotors in under 15,000 miles"

"a Wobble when braking at 60-75 mph."

"We have completely replaced our brake rotors and pads twice in the first 3 years of owning the van--very unusual. The rotors (either factory or aftermarket) warp after only a few thousand miles of use. After research, discovered this is a very common problem among owners, but Honda will not admit the problem exists or issue a recall. Very disappointed. This was our third Honda, but probably our last for awhile."

"Absolutely the worst mini-van I have ever owned, we came out of a Toyota Van have had Chrysler and even Ford mini -vans all with happy results, we have a big family. You have to talk extremely loud in order to be heard over the road noise, we usually try to take my truck if there's only 4 people going so you can enjoy the trip. The passenger side sliding door acts as if it is in a bind, the front end rattles and sounds as if its going to come out, there is always new squeaks and noises coming fr"

"Front disk brakes squeak loudly every time brakes are applied. Took it to the Honda dealer and was told that they were in good shape. Irritating."

"SINCE IT WAS NEW THE BRAKES HAVE GIVEN OFF A SQUEAK WHICH NO MECHANIC SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO FIX! I ALSO GET A CLICKING SOUND WHICH OCCURES AFTER THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AS IF THE CALIPERS WERE RELEASING AFTER THE CAR WAS STOPPED."
