2 Water Pump problem of the 2008 Honda Odyssey

Failure Date: 11/20/2017

Following a service in which my timing belt, serpentine belt, water pump, and power steering pump were changed, the tensioner bolt was sheared off twice while I was driving. The first time that this happened, the mechanic reported that he had never seen this particular problem before. The second time that the bolt was sheared off (both events were within a week of the servicing), the mechanic informed me that he had done research and this seemed to have happened to numerous Honda Odyssey owners. As state above, this has happened twice in the past week while I was driving, once on a ramp, entering the interstate and once turning right onto a main road from a parking lot.

3 Water Pump problem of the 2007 Honda Odyssey

Failure Date: 12/01/2015

I have a 2007 Honda Odyssey and I had to have the front and rear motor mounts replaced last year in Feb 2014. The car only had 67000 miles. Well, it has been less that 2 years and the mounts have gone bad again. I have seen many sites that have complaints of this being major problem but Honda does not want to do a recall. Last time it cost me over $500 for the 2 and this time the cost will be about the same. I have not contacted Honda yet but will do so tomorrow. Also, I had the timing belt and tensioner replaced in Feb 2014 as well and now the water pump, timing belt and tensioner need replacement again. They sit next to the motor mount and I am wondering if the bad mount is also damaging the water pump, etc. . . .
