The windows would not roll back up. It was freezing outside and we were on a long road trip. Fuse box was checked. All working. Locks were were checked. All working. The driver side window is the only window that will operate. Thankfully, they rolled back up and we locked it with the main switch on the drivers side. At first they worked intermittently, however, after unlocking the safety master window switch after our vacation, the windows no longer work (except for the driver side window). This is a huge safety issue when needing fresh air, or for getting car sick. I've seen many vehicles of this same manufacturer having this same problem when searching for solutions online.
Today all the lights on my car's dashboard start blinking non-stop. I was able to drive the car to the dealership for repair but the lights were blinking throughout the whole trip.
Vsa warning light went on suddenly during driving. Steering wheel feels not stable when turning after the light is on. Took the vehicle to Honda dealer and was told the communication between the vsa module and the computer is lost and need replace vsa module for $1,600. It is not a problem caused by wear-and tear and Honda should be responsible for making the electronics more reliable in Odyssey models.

On my daughters 2007 Honda Odyssey, it has an automatic up feature for the drivers window. Once the window starts up (closing), if you put down pressure on the window it will reverse, do down a few inches and stop. But if you put pressure on the window, like a child leaning out the window, and it starts up the override feature will not stop the window and make it go down a few inches. The window will continue to close, only stopping when the motor is overpowered. This does not happen until quite a bit of force is applied to whatever is blocking the window, and in the case of a small child it could cause quite a bit of injury. I have never encountered a vehicle with an auto-up feature for a window. With the amount of force it takes to overload the motor a child can be seriously injured.
Failure of front a/c condenser by a supposed "rock" impact resulting in loss of refrigerant and a/c service. I contend this is related to design defect of the front bumpers and lack of grill in large opening. Honda provided no compensation and extended warranty refused by stating "dealer stated rock impact is considered a collision under warranty" a google search reveals this is a wide spread problem with many models of Honda, not just Odyssey.
My 2007 Honda Odyssey lost it's electrical system functioning - when it did only the driver's door could be opened. The others are automatic and would not open from inside or outside. I had to pull my 2 grandchildren from the back thru my door. If this had been a wreck & the driver's seat was blocked by damage, no one could get out, and no one could get a door opened from the outside to help.
My 2 week old Honda Odyssey has 1200 miles on it and a damaged air conditioner a/c condenser. A rock went through the wide open front grill and easily punctured it. The repair cost was $600. My dealer says it wasn't under warranty. I complained to Honda, but haven't heard back from them yet. Many online car forums report that thiswas a major design flaw in the Odyssey and I agree. I'm going to spend $600 to repair and no telling how much to try to prevent more damage to my brand new $30,000 vehicle. That made no sense. I will not purchase another Honda ,and I will tell everyone that crosses my path that they shouldn't either!.
