1 Vehicle Shudder problem

Failure Date: 04/18/2021

Severe judder when accelerating. It leaves the driver hesitant to pass or enter the freeway. The rpm gauge and speed gauge bounce and the vehicle shakes as if you are pressing and releasing the gas peddle quickly, over and over.

2 Vehicle Shudder problem

Failure Date: 07/06/2020

While driving on the interstate, vehicle started to shudder and check engine indicator light started flashing. Exited the next exit and took took the van to the local mechanic shop the next morning. They replaced the spark plugs, due to being fouled, and also coil pack for cylinder 3, due to misfire code on cylinder 3. Within a month, the vehicle experienced the same shudder and flashing check engine indicator light. Took the van in to my mechanic and the code showed misfire on cylinder 3. He replaced the spark plug due to the fouling of the new plug and saved it for me to present to Honda. He also switched coil pack 2 with coil pack 3. He advised me of Honda technical service bulletin 13-081 and explained the build date of our Odyssey was listed as 08/13 and we should be included in the warranty extension that Honda was extending to the 11-13 models with the same exact issue as we were experiencing. I called the local Honda dealership and explained the circumstances and situation and the technician advised me our van was not covered under the warranty extension and as problems continued to arise to continue what we were doing and following recommendations of our mechanic (who has advised me to now get rid of vehicle due to Honda's position) and that in the technician's opinion fuel injectors would probably be the next course of action.
