general problems of the 2006 Honda Odyssey

While driving on I-81. I heard a brief, unusual sound inside my Honda Odyssey, then the left rear tire suffered an immediate catastrophic failure. The tire tread just peeled off the tire. Fortunately the tire did not deflate. I was able to safely park off the interstate and call for assistance. The van sustained significant body damage from the tire thread debris. I was towed to the nearest Honda dealer. They had to replace both rear tires with another brand because they did not sell toyo and it was after 6 p. M. They also were able to make the van safe for highway travel by removing broken body parts and securing other body components that allowed me to continue my journey back home without any further incidents. . . . .

I purchased a set of 4 toyo versado lx tires about 3 years ago. In the last month, one tire completely disintegrated on the interstate and we were lucky to keep control! the outer tread completely peeled off like you see from 18-wheelers. Just a few weeks later, we had terrible vibration from the front end. Took car to Honda dealer who determined another of the tires was completely defective. The treads were separating from the inside, and the tire was effectively square. All of the tires had plenty of wear left.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that the tires wore out after 16,000 miles. The replacement tires, dueler ht 235/65/r16 (na) dot number d684, failed after 22,000 miles. The vehicle was taken to the tire center where the tires were purchased and the contact was informed that the tire wear was caused by the design of the vehicle. The vehicle had not been inspected at the dealership at the time of the complaint. The VIN was unavailable when the complaint was filed. The current and failure mileages were approximately 38,000.

Complaint with michelinâ® paxâ® system run-flat technology: 235-710r 460a 104t. I have to replace the tires a 2nd time in only 45k miles. They wear too fast. Extremely expensive. I was never told by Honda I would have these issues. I have no other options but to purchase the same tires again. Something needs to be done by either Honda or michelin. I know I am not alone with this issue.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Odyssey equipped with michelin energy lx4 tires(na), size 235/70r17. The dot number was not available. While having routine maintenance performed at an authorized dealer, the contact was informed that he would need to have all four tires replaced due to excessive tread wear. The authorized dealer replaced the tires with the same type of tires that were originally on the vehicle. Approximately 25,000 miles later, the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for routine maintenance. He was informed again that all four tires were exhibiting tread wear and would need to be replaced. The dealer replaced the front tires, but not the rear. The failure mileage was 27,000 and the current mileage was 69,000.

I purchased a 2006 Honda Odyssey back in Nov, 2006. When I was looking for a van I asked the sales person in rock Honda in fontana, CA that I needed a good car because I had children and I did not wanted to be having problems on the road and of course I'm was a woman that didn't do any auto work, so I needed something easy to maintain, well to my surprise the tires that this van has, but that I was not told at the dealer that these tires (pax system) wear really fast and are very expensive and only a Honda dealer can change them. When I took my van to have the tires changed, I took it to 3 different shops and told me that only a Honda dealer or a certified shop could do it and the cost is $1,500. 00 to change them. I tried to contact the rock Honda and they actually hung up on me 3 times, one of the sales person told me that tires were easy to change that "he could purchase and change tires in his own garage" that the people from the shop did not know what they were talking about. Well I called Honda motor CO,inc and michelin and the only thing they did was apologized for the inconvenience. If I had known that I was going to have such an expensive maintenance I would not have bought it, but OH well I'm stuck with it now, and to top it all off, the roof is leaking and the warranty does not cover leaks, and the door on the right side makes a loud noise when it opens and closes but it's the same issue with the warranty.

I own a 2006 Honda Odyssey touring with michelin pax run-flat system. The pax tires worn so prematurely compared to other regular tires. This problem was first noticed around 25k miles of driving under normal conditions, and a Honda dealer said the problem might be caused by my driving habits, and therefore cannot be covered by any warranties both by Honda and michelin. Now at the mileage of +40k, all four tires have almost no tread to grab the road and the replacing cost is just ridiculously high around $1200. By observing so many others who have complained on the same defects, I would like to see both Honda and michelin voluntarily recall these failed product so the suffering owners could swap them with regular performers.

Bought Honda Odyssey on may,2006;replaced tires on July,2008 for $1300 (35,000k),tire went flat due to improper installation, paid $550 to fix this tire'; it happened on christmas eve, 160 miles away from home,were able to drive only 10miles (not 125) ,cost $300 to tow a car, tire started shaking right after replacement, fixed for additional $100 on March, 2009. Were told at that time that 1 tire was worn badly, might to replace it soon!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????.

Bought a 2006 Honda Odyssey touring with dvd/nav in March of 2006. In October '06, had alignment repaired due to van pulling to right. In may '07, requested alignment be checked again for pulling to the right, they were going to charge $85 because warranty expired. Was informed by Honda service tech in March 2008, we needed 4 brand new tires, not alignment problem. Van had 30, 413 miles and almost didn't pass inspection. Tires are 235-710r460a and were worn to 3/32 with regular maintenance and rotation. Was told by service tech that you had to replace all 4 at a time and cost would be $1211. 73. Was told you cannot replace pax tire system with regular tires. Did my own research and found out you can, but up-front cost including wheels, tires, and labor would be about $2000. Was not told upon purchasing the van that the tires would need complete replacement between 25k-30k miles! we were told pax system tires had excellent wear rating and would last longer than regular tires! had all tires replaced and van still pulls to right. Now we're being told our brakes need to be replaced. We're stuck with this vehicle because value of van had decreased with pax tire system complaints.

Purchased a 2006 Honda Odyssey with the michelin pax tire system. We have had no problems to date, but the cost to replace tires are (3) times the cost of regular tires. 90% of people are changing out wheels and tires with regular tires that cost much less to replace. Honda never told us that the tire replacement and labor would be twice that for the tires and (5) times that for the labor to replace tires. Would like tires replaced for the cost of normal tires.

This complaint is not about an accident or injury. The run flat tires with the Honda Odyssey touring - they wear out soon - very expensive to replace (about 3 times the cost of regular tires) - Honda says we can't just remove all the run flat tires and replace them with regular tires. - only select facilities can replace/fix them.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Odyssey with michelin energy lx4 size p235/65r16. He noticed that the left front tire was flat. The repair shop stated that all the tires were worn on the inside and outside. The current and failure mileages were 41,480.

Purchased 05 Honda oddyssey with pax tires brand new in may of 05. Have complained several times to Honda and michelin uneven wear of tire tread. Keep being told that this is how they're supposed to wear. Now having problems driving in any snow or ice narrowly avoided several accidents just driving through town to get home. Price to re-place with pax snow tires is outrageous plus cost to have tires swapped out each winter and spring. Honda and michelin have both advised that regular tires cannot be put on vehicle as this will void warranty and possibly cause system malfunctions.

Failure of michelin pax system tires at 25k miles. These tires offer unrealistic/unacceptable wear which would require yearly replacement at $1200+ per year. Manufacture and/or dealer did not mention or advise anything of the sort during purchase of vehicle. Severely restrictive options with respect to repair and replacement of tires. Excessively high cost of tires, lack of longevity and durability of tires, along inability to replace with suitable alternative tires.

2006 Honda Odyssey tires wore prematurely. Consumer states that michelin stated they were eligible for a 30% rebate. Dealer is stalling on giving rebate. They stated that they had to recheck with michelin to make sure they actually got a rebate. The consumer still has not received the rebate check.
