general problems of the 2007 Honda Odyssey

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated while reversing, a yellow warning light illuminated, indicating a bearing malfunction. The contact stated that the failure was an ongoing failure. The contact drove the vehicle to the dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired due to the cost. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 110,000.

Most times when I press on the brake and shift into drive or reverse, the dash will register a flashing d3. I have no idea what this is but I do know that the stopping is more responsive at this time. Also, I will go to start the vehicle but it doesn't start. Interior lights and dash would be working but no way to turn over. If I engage my brake and jiggle the shifter, it will do something that finally allows me to start it. This had left me stranded more times I would like but finally a helpful citizen showed me how to jiggle the shifter to get it to engage. I shouldn't have to do this at least once a week.

Tl-the contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while the vehicle was park in the parking lot at her apartment complex. The contact neighbor noticed smoke coming from the hood of the contact vehicle. Moments later the fire department arrived at the seen informed the contact that her vehicle caught on fire without warning light illuminated. A police report was filed. The fire department failed a report. The vehicle was not towed. The vehicle was deemed totaled. No injury. No medical attention contacted. The fire department is unsure of the cause of the failure. And referenced the power steering pump as the failure. The dealer was not informed of the failure. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximate 180,000. Ck.

I started up my vehicle and the engine lighy came on and the "d" for dtive began flashing. When I put the van in reverse and nuetral it appeared to be fine. However it shifted int drive hard made a loud clunk dound then started ratteling. Also the vhehcile lunges forward when the brake is applied. It also doesnt start or turn over at times.

The sliding door on my Odyssey fell off. It literally fell off right onto my body while I was pumping gas. Not only did this cause physical harm to my person, but it resulted in substantial body damage to the vehicle panel.

90 k service; actual miles 89,058. Mechanic servicer did not flush automatic transmission due to a firm downshift in the transmission when vehicle was road tested I understand that other Honda Odyssey transmissions have had similar downshift issues, vehicle in motion on road test when downshift occurred.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. When the vehicle was shifted into park, the vehicle still moved. The failure was intermittent and occurred without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the range switch was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 130,917.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. After the vehicle was shifted into park, it still continued to move. The failure occurred without warning. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure occurred twice. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000. The VIN was not provided.

Unusual shifts between 30-45 mph. Seems like transmission is "hunting" for gear. When going downhill and brake is applied a noticeable downshift is felt. First time this was observed was on winding and hilly roads. Assumed it was the "eco" kicking in/out or the transmission simply downshifting.

The "d" / drive led started blinking several times at around 104. 660 miles. So far no other fault led was flashing. However I discovered since a while that the transmission shifts very hard when driving slower and the transmission shifts from 3rd gear to 2nd gear. The Honda technician however told me that this rough shifting is not an issue.

I bought my 2007 Odyssey in 2014. It had 55000 miles on it and appeared to be in very good condition. It ran very well except that the emissions light would come on and usually stay on. It did pass during one short period. Noticed as it went over 60,000 it had more and more transmission problems. Would not back up; wouldn't go into eco mode; shuddered during driving, until it was undriveable. There were no conditions under which the transmission worked well.

I was driving to a supermarket, I pulled into parking lot and then I saw a lot of smoke coming under the hood, I had my three children inside the car and in minutes my car was totalled completely burned. Honda should pay my van, none noticed any problem before. Side doors won't open at the moment of the fire, very dangerous design for an emergency like this, imagine I mother with child on a car seat and not having acces to the rear seats, when this dangerous situation takes minutes to burn the entire vehicle.

Tl-the contact owns 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 55 mph, the vehicle loose speed while depressing the brakes. All the lights on the instrument panel illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 130,640.

Tl-the contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving at 45 mph and making a left or right turn, the steering wheel was difficult to maneuver and there was an abnormal noise. The failure recurred several times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The VIN number was not available. The failure mileage was 50,000.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that the rear passenger door fractured and detached from the vehicle. In addition, the vehicle rolled backwards twice while the gear was in park. The dealer stated that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 110,000.

While pulling our 2007 Honda Odyssey into parking space at local shopping center, tapping on brake pedal caused a sudden acceleration. Tachometer revved to > 2500 rpm. Two other witnesses in the vehicle verified that the accelerator pedal was not being pressed at any time during the incident. The only way to bring vehicle to stop was to push the brake with great force, pop the shifter into park and turn vehicle off. Immediately brought the vehicle to Honda dealer. Dealer inspected vehicle and accelerator pedal and nothing wrong was found. No error code found.

While traveling on flat, level surface streets at roughly 40mph, car would spontaneously downshift (to 1st gear?) causing the vehicle to slow very quickly/lots of drag (locking up seatbelts) as if the brakes were applied quickly. The vehicle will then reshift back into a higher gear with little to no resistance again. This may happen 1-4 times within a 60 second period. Pulling the car over, turning off and turning on again seems to fix issue. Shifting into second gear, seemed to fix issue. Shifting into neutral, power cycling car seemed to fix issue. Over the last 6 months or so, this has happened ~2x month.

Tl-the contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while performing an oil check, the dealer stated that there was an oil leak in the transmission and a failure with the timing belt. The failure was not reported to the manufacturer. The failure and current mileage was 72,000. Kmj.

While traveling down the highway, our transmission stopped working. We had it towed to the local Honda shop and the confirmed that the transmission needed to be replaced and it would cost aprox. $5,800. 00. 37 months ago Honda replaced the transmission the 1st time because of a recall. When we spoke to Honda, they told us they did not warranty recalls. So, now our primary source of transportation for our family is now worth $500. 00. We think Honda either replaced the recalled transmission with an inferior product to save money, or used the same recalled transmission to replace our factory transmission. If we had known there was no warranty on recalled repairs, we would have done things differently.

Transmission shifting problems on 2007 Honda Odyssey.

When traveling at 30 to 40 mph and you let off gas pedal, trans downshifts. Sometimes a shudder at highway speeds. Picked speed control because transmission was not an option.

Purchased this Honda new in December 2006. No problems with it till this incident. Both back wheels started making terrible noises. A grinding and screeching sound at all speeds. I asked a few friends who have the same vehicle and they said they had to replace both rear bearings on their vehicle. I took the vehicle to the Honda dealer and that is exactly what it was. Both rear bearings. I can hardly imagine one bearing going bad on a modern vehicle. Both bearings tells me something is wrong with the product. I believe this could be a significant and dangerous problem for all Honda Odyssey's on the road. It is clearly a defective rear bearing. I contacted Honda regarding this and the representative I spoke with said there was currently no recall regarding this. They were very polite and pleasant to deal with. I expressed my concern, but feel that effort was inadequate. I also searched for this issue on a couple of automobile forums online. I found hundreds of references to this issue. So I do not believe it is an isolated incident. Thank you for ensuring that our roads and the vehicles we drive remain safe! please feel free to contact me with any questions.

I am getting a thud sound from the back of my 2007 Odyssey Mini van. We called Honda and they said they have had several people come in with this. They found that there is a glazing that happens with the brakes and they said they have to grind the drums and it makes it go away for awhile. They said if the brake shoes are ok it would run about $200. 00. This is crazy if they have a problem with the brakes other than wear and tear they should fix it for free. I have put two sets of brakes on this van since I bought it and I have never had brakes go so fast. I believe they have a very poor design. If I had not bought the extended warranty I would have been out 1000 of dollars with all the problem this 2007 Honda has had. If I had it to do over again I would not buy another Honda. The windshield whistles, the transmission part had to be replaced, the compressor melted, the battery went dead on a trip before a year was up. The bearings in the wheels went bad. The axle went bad. The right rear door motor went bad. The left rear door will open part way and shut. All in all Honda has gone down hill. $37,000 and its a piece of junk. Thank god other than the brakes the dealer has been very very good and has fixed everything at least once.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact was driving 40 mph when the vehicle abnormally decelerated to 20 mph. The failure recurred three times without warning. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer and the manufacturer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 45,000 and the current mileage was 50,000.

The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the vehicle violently shook while changing gears. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and they were unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 65,000.

The vehicle is burning 1 quart of oil in between 600 and 800 miles. I now change the oil every 3000 miles. The computer still shows that I have upwards of 40% of the oil life remaining when changing the oil. My mechanic(not Honda dealership) has tried contacting Honda but gets no solution. I have tried contacting dealer but they say that a quart of oil every 600 miles is normal. Car stalls out when under 2 quarts of oil. Honda recalled years after my Odyssey with same issue but has not recalled my year. Same engine and computer, same problem.

2007 Honda Odyssey decelerated on its own. While driving at about 30 mph the vehicle accelerated quickly and decelerated quickly on its own. The incident lasted about 3 seconds. It did not come to full stop. The recall for the brakes for this model was installed on 6/15/10 by the dealership. This incident occurred days later on 6/20/10. The very same issue happened 2 times before about 18 months ago. The car was taken to the dealership but no issue was found.

A transmission judder is felt while driving between 20-45 mph and I did receive a safety recall notice from Honda automobile division regarding that subject upon which I scheduled an appointment with an authorized dealer to fix the problem but he has failed to remedy the defect in my vehicle and the vehicle is still defected.

Tl- the contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph with the brake pedal depressed, the vehicle fish tailed. There was a manufacturer's recall for a power train software update performed on the vehicle. The failure recurred three years later. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis however, the technician was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 20,771. Kmj.

Bought the 2007 Odyssey ex-l res nav new in 2007, did not notice the 40~50mph judder during the 10 minutes test drive. I did notice that while driving it back home, but that was too late and the money was with the dealer already. Brought it back to the dealer and they said it was normal, even though you can find lots of complaints from internet. I should have done more research before made this purchase. Too much penalty to trade in for others. From that on, I just avoid that speed range as much as I could. After dealer updated the transmission code last year, the vibration still exists and just slightly improved. But the down shift is kind of rough when crusing to slow down. Sometimes it even stuck at unexpected low gear when driving on a down hill while gas is off. Even though I only have 38k miles on it so far, but worry it might not last long enough to worth the money I paid. Any way, I just told all my friends go get a "Toyota sienna" and definitely not Honda Odyssey. Honda/Acura have lots of transmission issues and they need to recall all those cars. This is the first and last Honda for me, no more Honda . . . . !.

My 2007 Honda Odyssey has been shuddering for a long time had it to the dealership 2-3 times and they could not find anything wrong with it or get the problem to happen there. My lease is almost up and we thought of buying the van because we are way over our miles but not with this problem for fear it is the transmission. It shudders between 30-40mph or on an incline.
