The tailgate of my van, didn't stay open. As soon as I leave my hand from it, instead of staying open, it just came down and closed. I was nearly hurt. . . . . I talked to american Honda, and they didn't think this is worthy of recall. Even though, 2008 Honda odyssy has a similiar defect and they have issued recall. But not for 2007 model.
2007 - 2010 Honda Odyssey owners are targeted to receive notification of a "warranty extension" to replace the power steering pump under certain conditions. I received the notice for my 2007 Honda Odyssey, suffered with the "hard to turn" condition (see TSB 10-076) and associated pump whining noise that is described in TSB 07-005 (defective pump reservoir). Although the pump was extended warranty replaced at university motors (missoula) I was required to pay for the replacement of the reservoir ($66. 08). My understanding is that the reservoir defect is what causes the pump to fail. I believe that a recall should be required and all owners that have been required to pay for the reservoir (or pump) should be 100% reimbursed. American Honda automobile refused to reimburse for this replacement stating that the extended warranty applies only to the pump. Please review huge complaint data base.
Rear liftgate struts on 2007 Honda Odyssey experienced sudden failure causing the rear liftgate to suddenly close on me when standing under it. Struts are manufactured by stabilus part # 6826ur 0810n 334/06 c7. The part number is 74820-shj-a012. There was a previous safety recall for the 2005 Honda Odyssey for this same issue. The NHTSA action number ea08015. There is no recall notice for the 2007 sudden strut failure.
When I open the liftgate it does not hold up. The tailgate gas strut has failed I only have 33000 miles on it.
Excessive shuddering / jarring with 2007 Honda Odyssey touring model. Problem was recognized when initially purchases used from luther Honda in hopkins, mn. They said it was an engine mount issue and replaced one of the engine mounts. Problem still exists with shuddering/jarring occurring when the eco system kicks in and out.
Dera sir: we bought this vehicle (Honda Odyssey, 2007) in may 2007 in michigan. Since last 18 months, we have been experiencing serious issues with this vehicle. One issue was power steering (not able to maneuvering), I went to Honda. They changed the power steering unit twice in the last 12 months (I purchased extenede warranty, otherwise it would have been an expensive thing for me). Again, I had same issue this week, then I went to Honda. They mentioned "right side inner and outer tie rods loose and were completely worn out". They did mentiioned to me that it is dangaerous to drive this vehicle. They kept my vehicle overnight and installed a new part. I believe there is serious flaws in the design of this particle year model. Today I am experienceing different problem, shaking engine at 40 mph. They did update the software but still there is problem in this vehicle. I apreciate if nha would take a look into this matter. I almost spent more than $10000 on this vehicle and I realized I bought a piece of junk from Honda which I thought was a reliable maker.

Component failure: a/c condenser, due to small object hitting it. A/c no longer works and dealer wants $1,000 to repair. This is a problem that Honda has known about since 2004 at least, I. E. , the a/c condenser is susceptible to damage from small road objects (stones mostly). Honda refuses to acknowledge their fault, claiming damage is "accidental". My position is that this is a design flaw that Honda was aware of and could have easily prevented. In 2008 model year, Honda covered the condenser with a shield to prevent further problems. My dealer is offering to add this shield for $70. 00 (in addition to the $1,000 repair bill) to prevent further occurences. This may not be a safety problem but it surely smacks of a consumer rip-off. Honda poorly designed the shielding for the condenser, knew about the problem for years (just google the issue), and then allowed its dealers to charge $1,000 for the problem they created. Obviously, the delaers are happy with this common problem. Extended warranty does not cover this repair either. Honda claims the damage is like a stone hitting the windshield. However, the purpose of the windshield is to prevent a stone from hitting the car's occupants; no one would argue Honda is responsible for the windshield doing the job it was intended to do by preventing a stone from hitting the occupants. With regard to the condenser, Honda could easily have prevented the problem by placing a shield over the affected part(s). It chose not to with the full understanding this common problem would cost its customers hundreds of thousand (if not millions) of dollars to repair.
Honda Odyssey 2007 tail gate strut problem. It has been observed over the net that the Honda Odyssey tail gate gas lift dies after about 32000 to 39000 miles. Our died at 42000 miles. Can you please keep record for this complaint and see if this helps to make sure that manufacture can provide some better parts. Thanks!!!.
I have a 2007 Honda Odyssey and the sliding doors do not latch properly, which could open while driving with my children sitting in the car. I get an audible chime telling me "a" door is ajar, but no warning light on the dash. When I come to a stop by hitting the breaks I hear the door finally close. This is a very scary knowing that I could be driving down the interstate and my doors could slide open at anytime. I have taken my car to the dealership numerous times in which they have replaced a failed door latch and tightened the chain and the problem still has not been corrected. I have seen many issues with this in other forums and I wonder what it is going to take for a recall to be issued.
My 2007 Honda Odyssey has a problem with "memory steer". When you make a turn to the left them the car has a problem with pulling to the left. When you make a turn to the right then the car has a problem with pulling to the right. This condition seems to be worse to the left. This is a major problem. The vehicle will change lanes into oncoming traffic or head toward the ditch very quickly. This condition caused driver fatigue in that you have to constantly grip the steering wheel tightly fighting against the pull of the car causing you wrist and hand to hurt on longer drives (over 30 to 60 minutes).
I was driving my 2007 Honda Odyssey. As I was coming to a stop, I became involved in an accident. Over the recent weeks I thought it was taking longer to stop my van, but had my van in for service the week before. I was assure that everything was fine and all fluid levels were correct. ***note: on my first service visit the service adviser told me that I should not be concerned about brake fluid levels that the van would notify me when it was time to replace the breaks and that the van was designed to do so. The police were called to the scene of the accident. I could not explain the accident and the officer coaxed me in to saying that I had been distracted. I was in shock. My son was in the car with me and I could not think much of anything else other than whether he was safe. I believe I had come to a complete stop then hit the vehicle in front of me. My airbags did not deploy. Ever since the accident I have continued to notice that I must press the brake pedal all the way to the floor at times to stop the van and other times I don't in normal driving circumstances. All along I had believed the dealership that everything was fine with my vehicle. Now I have damages to pay and a ticket I am facing as a result of what I believe to be break failure. I will be making a follow-up report with my local police department, faxing a copy other similar break failure complaints to my insurance company, contacting Honda and hopefully will be able to get some answers on the problem with my van.
2007 Honda Odyssey air conditioning stopped working. Result was a damaged condenser due to "road debris". Warranty coverage was not provided by Honda. Condenser proximity to road surface makes it prone to damage and should be considered a design defect. Internet searches revealed numerous complaints about this issue.
Brand new vehicle - minivan purchased from grainger Honda savannah GA. Upon delivery of the "brand new" vehicle we noticed a misaligned rear bumper and smudged paint work. We subsequently found out it was actually re-painted! we told the dealer we wanted either a full refund if not a new vehicle. The dealer offered to repair the bumper! as far as we are concerned the vehicle is not new and damage was not disclosed to us, the buyer.
Spongy brake pedel since car was new, and squeeky noise when applying brakes while turning, usually when car is cold. This started in oct. 2009.
Bought a new 2007 Honda odessey van in early December 2006. The first warm day in March, I turn on the ac and it does not work. We take the van in assuming that the ac never worked (as it was not used) and they said a rock from the road hit my condensor and it is a total loss. Now I have difficulty understanding how this could have happened. I search the internet and find a ton of the same stories. I called the dealer and told them I am getting a second opinion and now they want to share in the cost of repair to me. It sounds like they realize there is a problem but are not accepting responsibility for it.
Consumer stating problem has been resolved. Consumer states that the general manager with the dealer arranged to trade in the vehicle and the problems will be fixed.
