general problems of the 2005 Honda Odyssey

The vehicle engine is shutting off with no warning. There have been approximately 6 instances of the vehicle being operated and then the engine will cut off. The first incident occurred in a parking lot when in reverse. There have been 3 incidents at low speed, while making turns, and 2 incidents while traveling at speed (one at 40 mph and one at 70 mph). The vehicle has been taken to the dealer on 3 occasions but the dealer has been unable or unwilling to address the issue because there are no codes sent to the on-board computer. The most recent incident on 3/6/2011 was while traveling at 70 mph on the interstate highway. We referred the service writer to NHTSA campaign id numbers 05v132000 and 07v097000 but he was unwilling to consider that our issue was related to either of these previously noted failures.

Have a 2005 Honda Odyssey van, it hesitates, or has a flat spot when accelerating at stop sign or traffic light. Have had trouble soon after purchase, and does it way to often. Had a 2002 Odyssey which did the same thing so I replaced it with the 2005 and still have the same problem. Yet the Honda dealer tells me they have had no other reports about such a problem. At present it is at the dealers. They called me yesterday, and said they could not find the problem. I asked them to keep it a while longer and drive it and maybe they could find the problem.
