general problems of the 2006 Honda Odyssey - part 1

Motor mounts worn out.

My car was parked in the front the house and its just caught fire we called the emergency and the fire truck the make report but the police didn't make any report.

My engine exploded on Saturday Dec 12 about 10 oclock when we turned the ignition to start the 2006 Honda Odyssey.

Odyssey 2006 3. 5 has transmission problems. Torque converter needs replacing. When driving there is hardly any acceleration when you apply gas. Catalytic converter and gaskets are faulty. Ignition coil needs replacing before its time. And there is an issue with purge valve that mixes the fuel while driving.

I am having a problem with the power steering freezing up on slow turns and the transmission torque converter clutch is stuck making the car transmission heat up and quit until it cools down, I was stuck on the side of the road 4x for this. Once with my 97 yr old brother in law and 79 yr old sister. They want $4000 to fix this. The driver side sliding door cable broke also. I had the run flat pax tires on it when it was purchased, I was not told that I would have to drive at least 100 to 200 miles to get them changed out as they need a special machine to fix them. I had to buy new rims and tires for $1500. I have 125,000 miles on the car. I will never buy or recommend a Honda to anyone.

Tl the contact owns a 2006 Honda Odyssey. While driving various speeds and when parked on an incline, the contact detected an abnormal odor of fuel emerging from the second row seats. Additionally, there was fuel leaking from underneath the vehicle. The contact called parker johnstone's wilsonville Honda (30600 sw parkway Ave, wilsonville, or 97070, (503) 985-6958), but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.

I was driving fine, all of a sudden, the engine just completely shut down and there was no power. Turn on again, it worked. Drive for 2 miles, it totally shup down again. No power, nothing.

I had all motor mounts replaced April of last year and now in February of 2019 I had replace the back motor mount again. Now I have yet another motor mount going bad. This is ridiculous. The 06 Honda odessey needs to be recalled. Even my mechanic said that he sees this all the time with the 06 odesseys.

Dealer states front engine mount needs to be replaced after only 74,000 miles. "motor mount - front: worn out" is the exact statement. A simple web search yields numerous references to broken or worn out motor mounts on Honda vehicles with 6 cylinder engines. At what point does the NHTSA take notice? when does Honda take responsibility for this issue?.

In motion the engine was making a loud rattle as if something was hitting the vehicle's fan. Turns out it is the camshaft position sensor. Because there is a TSB out my extended warranty company is refusing to cover this repair that runs over $3k.

Horrible vibration in eco mode due to vcm (3 cylinders shutting down) at all speeds. Noticed vibration when speed exceeds 50 mph. Honda dealer noted this is most likely due to eoo mode but vibration is too much to be normal. Vibration increases in intensity when accelerating above 50 mph. 5 service inspections and master technicians cannot diagnose problem(s)yet. Engine mount failure noted by other owners describe the problem precisely.

Engine mount failure: 3 motor mounts have failed . The car mechanic says he only changes motor mounts on Odysseys and no other car has same issue with the mounts. I googled motor mount failure and it is quite a lot of complaint s and I'm wondering if the Odyssey has so many issue with motor mounts why have they not been recalled. If not fixed there are catastrophic issues and possible loss of life. I like my car, for the most part but it seems to have many issues , some recalled. It's frustrating and costly.

The spark plug blew out of the cylinder head while driving on a major 8 lane highway at 65 mph. If I didn't react quickly & there was a car to the right of me, I very easily could've been in a dangerous accident. Unsure if there was any engine damage.

The fluid filled motor mounts that come on the exl/touring model have both failed and fluid leaked out. The concept behind these electronically controlled motor mounts is to dampen the vibration when the van goes into eco mode reducing the active cylinders from 6 to 3. When these mounts fail the van vibrates considerably in the eco mode. I googled the issues and see that their are many others with this same issue from year 2005 -2007 at all different levels of mileage. The cost of repair through Honda is over $1800. I have never seen such a run on motor mounts as I have when trying to research the issue which makes me thing there is a engineering/design flaw. Left un-repaired and Honda told me that the vibration can cause many other issues rendering the van unsafe to drive.

While stopped in traffic, engine began hard acceleration and front tires began screeching. This occurred 4x within 10 days. With each experience there was no warning. It was fortunate that foot was on brake pedal at that time.

While traveling on the highway and approaching speeds between 45mph to 65mph the entire car started to shake violently, as if the car was going to fall apart. I immediately brought it to an independent dealer and I was informed the engine motor mounts were failing.

I was driving about 60 mph on a highway when my 2006 Honda Odyssey began shaking and vibrating. The shaking was so bad the rearview mirror became loose and eventually fell off the front window. If I would have had a coffee cup sitting in the beverage holder the rearview mirror would have splashed hot coffee on my shorts and down my leg. This same situation would occur if I would have had a toll-road transponder attached to the windshield just below the rearview mirror. This is the second time an engine mount has failed on my Honda Odyssey. I paid $1,706. 13 to replace a failed engine mount on August 6, 2014.

Tl- the contact owns a 2006 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving 2o to 30 mph, the vehicle started to smoke. He pulled to the side and noticed oil dripping from the engine. There was no warning indicator. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine was completely dead and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that the vehicle was out of warranty. In addition, the contact received notification of NHTSA id number: 14v112000 ( fuel system, gasoline). The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 84,000. Fe.

Broken engine mount. Because of that the car is not safe to drive with family. I have seen most of Honda Odyssey are experiencing same problem and manufacture are not fixing this issue.

The rear lower motor mounts wear out prematurely and cause unwanted vibrations and steering play. This is a known issue and has not been rectified. The dealership charges $800 to replace the defective parts.

Motor mounts failed causing violent shudder at highway speed. I've seen hundreds of complaints online about this problem on Honda Odyssey with low miles. It should be recalled as this is defect.

Brought van in for tire rotation, and was informed that 2 of the motor mounts were torn/broken and needed to be replaced-possibly all 4! have noticed serious wobble and thought it had to do with suspension. . . Was quoted 800. 00 to fix 2 motor mounts.

There was excessive vibration of vehicle and we took it to Honda dealership in raleigh, nc and were told the front and rear engine mounts have all collapsed. We have also been informed that this is a very common problem in Odyssey's. This needs to be a safety recall.

Broken engine mounts. I fixed the front one in Nov 2014. The engine is now rattling while it is idling. I am now being told that the front engine mount needs replacing as well as the rear one. I have seen many Honda chat boards and many others are experiencing this same problem and Honda is not stepping up to help this systemic problem. Hoping this kicks them into gear.

My 2006 Honda Odyssey went up in flame, while I was driving the vehicle, on 10/11/14. Insurance had me tow it to the Honda dealer. After Honda having the car for 31 days the insurance paid the repairs & I paid my $500. 00 deductible. I'm ready to drive my Honda Odyssey away on 11/13/14, and I notice the van began to shake violently and the rpm's dropped to almost 0. No report was given to me about what was wrong with van & what future repairs had to be done. All I got was the present repairs due to the fire, even after we had asked them to do a full inspection of the vehicle. Prior to the fire the van never shook, it never had this problem before. While there, they performed the changing of the fuel pump which had been recalled by Honda, but now we can not be sure that it was done nor can we be sure that it didn't affect the cars status now. Honda still has the van in their lot & insurance adjuster went to see the car and now Honda is saying that the shaking of the car has nothing to do with the fire. According to Honda's final report the "probable" cause of fire was in the alternator area -sub-cord alternator to fuse box. Honda said the shake is caused by the rubber motor mounts. I tried to tell Honda they are rubber pieces and when rubber comes in contact with heat it melts. Honda will not fix without me paying out of pocket. If the problem really is the motor mounts, I have researched that many people are awaiting a recall from Honda on the motor mounts for the fact that theirs prematurely fails. Honda has us on a back and fourth. If they can't be sure what caused the fire and are disregarding the motor mounts going bad due to the fire or the fuel pump recall, then how can they be sure that none of the above is not causing the violent shake on the van.

My van has never been in an accident yet the rear engine mount collapsed and made my engine shake back and forth causing a vibration during driving. They tell me this happened because of stop and go driving. I know many people who own these vans and all of them have had to have this faulty part replaced. It should be recalled. The repair cost over one thousand dollars and it took them less than 1 1/2 hours to fix.

2006 Honda Odyssey. Consumer states while fixing the car, the technician says he can't fix problem because of wet spot in car. The consumer believed the vehicle was leaking anti-freeze.

The car was leaking a brownish-orange liquid from the front middle of the engine area. Three of the five engine mounts were found to be broken and all needed to be repaired. I was told by the mechanic that this is a common problem with Hondas that have a v6 engine. If this is such a wide-spread problem, why is it not fixed by Honda? this really greatly increased the cost of overall Honda ownership.

The 4 motor mounts with the mileage of 54,365 have failed. There are countless complaints of this serious defect from Honda and it is not being addressed. I went in for an oil change and was told my motor mounts need to be replaced! if I did not need an oil changed, would my engine fall to the ground. This failure should not be happening on a vehicle with 54,000 miles. Why is this not a safety recall initiated by the NHTSA?.

My 2006 Honda Odyssey has 4 broken motor mounts! extremely expensive to repair. This will be the second time this vehicle gets 4 new motor mounts.

Engine vibrating violently at speeds of 35-40 mph and when rpm are between 1,500 to 2,000. The possible causes are faulty engine mounts, transmission, or engine. Honda replaced the power steering due to problems. I also replaced the run flat tires with non run flat because the run flat last only 1 year. I want to vibration to be resolved. The vibration appears to be a manufacturer defect according to online Honda owners groups.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving 40 mph, the check engine and the traction control warning lights illuminated as the vehicle lost acceleration power. The contact applied the brake pedal but the brakes seized and the contact momentarily lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer to have a diagnostic performed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure and current mileage was 50,000. Updated 03/11/lj.

I was told today that my front engine mount needs to be replaced. My van only has 79,586 miles on it. It seems to be a very common defect in theses vans.

Took vehicle to Honda dealer it was bought from for routine service. Dealer reported to me that 3 engine mounts were broken. One engine mount had previously broken and been repaired by this dealer. I am in my 70's, retired, and drive cautiously. How can 4 engine mounts break?.

Experiencing vibration in vehicle during acceleration between 40-60 mph. Took the van to mechanic and was informed that two motors mounts are bad and need replacing. These are not wear and tear items and should not need replacing. This appears to be a problem with Honda Odyssey vans and this problem is not being covered by warranty since the failure occurs around 100k to 150k miles.
