After reversing out of the driveway (slowly) and putting the car in drive I noticed a hard clunking sound. I thought it was just a rough shift. When I continued to drive down my block 5-15 mph to the stop sign it continued. It feels like another vehicle is crashing into you and slamming on the breaks. You lose 'control' of the gas pedal (your foot is on the gas, you hear a large clunk and the gas pedal doesn't make you go forward anymore, for a couple seconds) it is a nerve-racking feeling and isn't correct. My vehicle was purchased in 2014 (2015 model) it only has 32k miles on it. Regular routine maintenance has been performed. It has happened a handful of times in the past 3-4 months and seems to temporarily correct itself once the car is put in park, turned off and turned back on. . . I have not been able to recreate it for anyone while they are in the vehicle, except my children who are scared when it happens. When the car is in park and goes to drive there is also a harsh transition; a clunk happens when shifting. It is an automatic transmission. Yesterday 10/2/18; I drove roughly a mile with no issues until I came to a stop sign, where I didn't make a complete stop and it started happening again. I waited to post, it happened again this morning 10/4/2018; the van was cold (parked all night) backed up, came to a complete stop, put it in drive, clunked like it missed firts gear, then continued to clunk as I drove between 40 and 60 feet. Stopped, put it in park, turned it back on and drove away with no issue. Shall see what happens after work today.
While accelerating after being stopped at a stop sign, the car made a clunking noise and the car jerked severely as we accelerated into gear. It happened at least 2 more times after being stopped at a couple of stop signs. It was very frightening when it happened and is a safety issue as the driver's attention is taken away when it happens. The scariest part is not knowing when it's going to happen. When there is a need to accelerate quickly across traffic, we are worried the same thing will happen again or that the car won't make it through the intersection. I don't feel safe driving this vehicle while the issue is outstanding. This is an unacceptable issue that having read other forums is happening to others with 2014 and 2015 Odyssey's and the dealerships are bot understanding the cause or fix for the issue due to it happening sporadically. This calls for action before it leads to someone being harmed. It's a major issue and pressure needs put on Honda to fix the issue!.
