The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. While getting bags out of the vehicle, the rear liftgate failed and crashed onto the contact¿s shoulder. The dealer stated that the rear hatch shocks failed. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 192,000.

I opened the rear lift gate of the van. The struts that hold the gate open failed and hit my son in the head. My van has a manual lift gate and does not appear to have been included in the recall of 2008 vans with automatic lifts where the gas was leaking out of the struts and causing a similar failure. I request the NHTSA investigate the failure of the manual lift gate and require Honda to fix this equipment failure. I feel this should not have failed in a vehicle only 6 years old. I have another van (Mercury villager) that is almost 18 years old and the lift gate still operates as new. This is a safety hazard and could cause seriously injury or death. Thank you.

2008 Honda Odyssey exl hatchback lift gate struts gave out and fell on my head while loading groceries. The hatchback will open and close but the struts do not work. It fell with no warning of an issue. It can be very dangerous if one if not paying attention. Especially if children are near.

2005 Honda Odyssey liftgate struts failed. Opened the rear liftgate to remove something from the trunk and the liftgate did not stay up. Now everytime I try and open the liftgate, I would need to open with one hand and remove items or put items inside with the other hand.

2006 Honda Odyssey ex-l liftgate struts not working. I had the hatch door open & it suddenly shut hard on it's own. My daughter and I were getting groceries from the van at the time. Until this time, there was no indication that the parts were wearing. I just had the van in a Honda dealership on 4/21 for repairs that included having them check out why the cargo area was filled with water. I will order replacement parts & install.

My 2005 Honda Odyssey touring van needed new hatch struts. I have 42,000 miles on van. Labor $44. 78 - parts $130. 80 - charge for preparing repair order $4. 48 - tax $10. 81. Total cost $190. 87. I told my friend who has a Toyota sienna and he just received a letter from Toyota telling him they have had problems with the hatch struts and have extended the warranty for five years, I think. If you have had the problem repaired already they will pay you back. I wonder if they use the same struts? good customer service from Toyota. Are you listening Honda?.

I was leaning into the trunk and the back hatch came flying down onto my back. The hatch hydraulics/struts gave way. I have already ordered the parts at the dealer because it wasn't shutting properly. It has taken over a week for the parts to come in. This is the second time I have had to get these parts replaced in less than 2 years for a less than two year old car. I was injured and I am seeking medical attention.
