Check engine light on. Dealer reveals code p0420. They (russ darrow milwaukee, WI) are saying that the catalytic converter as well as an O2 sensor need to be replaced cost $1,200. The current mileage is 110,000 and failure mileage was 91,000 and I am the original owner of the vehicle. Sticking sliding door's in winter (russ darrow & david hobbs milwaukee, WI) have all the serivice records on the sticking door issuse and they where unable to resolve it. Dealer's fix for sticking sliding door was to lube the sliding door every winter instead of finding a solution. This has been on going since 2002 and now I just lube the door's my self instead of wasting my time at dealer's service center.

The sliding door does not shut all the way.

I called Honda they said being my van does not have warranty everything will come out of my pocket. I can not afford to do this I have 4 children and my husband has lost his job is there anything that can be done? thanks.

2000 Honda Odyssey has sticky sliding doors impossible to open after it rains. Dealership greased the doors and the situation got worse. It is a dangerous situation especially if there is a fire. I googled problem and others complain. When trying to open the sliding door it unlocks but will not open. When the sun comes out and you come back to your car the sliding door is ajar and unlocked!.

The driver's side door failed to open while my wife and daughter were in the car, a 2000 Honda Odyssey that we have had continual "design flaw" problems with from virtually the day we bought it new. I had to pay close to $535 to get this door latch replaced!! and american Honda motor corp. In torrance refused my request for any assistance whatsoever!! I do not think a door latch should ever have to be replaced, on any car, as this is part of the basic car chasis/frame and should last the life of the car. We had no choice because this door would not open at all and my wife had to crawl in/across from the front passenger-side door to get in until we could get it fixed.

The contact owns a 2000 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that both of the sliding doors were experiencing numerous failures. The doors are supposed to automatically slide open whenever she presses the buttons or pulls on the handle. When she does this, the doors fail to open properly. Occasionally, the doors do not open at all and will close halfway, forcing her to have to exit the driver's seat and close the door manually. The failure has since worsened. The rear driver's side sliding door was not working at all. The passenger side sliding door will not automatically close and must be opened or closed manually. Both doors were replaced under warranty. The contact was unsure of the work performed on the doors at the time of service; however, the failures would immediately recur. The only way that the rear passengers could exit the vehicle was through the front passenger or driver's side door. The contact believes that in an event of a crash, the children would not be safe. The doors have not been replaced and only the passenger side sliding door is currently able to open. In addition, the transmission is failing and has been repaired at least three times. While driving, the contact noticed that the brake and tcm indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. When she reached 40 mph, the rpm dial began moving up and down randomly. She took the vehicle to the dealer, but they could not find any failures. A few days later while driving 40 mph, the vehicle shut off and was towed to the dealer. The dealer rebuilt the transmission; however, it failed again six months later. The transmission was replaced a second time, but failed again after a few weeks. The failure mileage was 74,614 and current mileage was 137,066.

The manufacturer was notified of the recurring failure. The contact also stated that the electrical components in the vehicle would fail intermittently. The vehicle was not inspected or repaired for the electrical failure. The failure mileage was 15,000.
