I brought my 2006 Honda Odyssey into the dealer for a brake master cylinder recall. Unbeknownst to me I was informed that 2 motor mounts also needed to be replaced at the cost of $1350. The service manager explained to me that this is a common issue with the Odyssey and not part of regular maintenance. An online search reveals that many other owners of this van are experiencing the same situation. I thought Honda was known for safety but it appears it has also earned the reputation for defective motor mounts. At what point will Honda be held accountable for an obvious design flaw that jeopardizes the safety of its riders? my van has less than 60,000 miles and is just over the 5 year mark, so it is not covered under the warranty. As long as Honda is allowed to defer the cost of this repair to its owners it will. Hopefully it won't take someone to be seriously injured or killed before the appropriate action is taken. Its pretty obvious a recall is long overdue.
My 2006 Honda Odyssey (with 45000 miles) rear lift gate supporting strut(s) failed and the the gate became so heavy. Luckily the failure happened when the gate was closed. If the failure occurs when the gate is open, someone may be injured. However, I did bump my head when I put a post to hold the gate while removing items from the vehicle. I accidentally hit the post and the gate fell and hit my head. The key point is that Honda should replace the struts with a heavier duty parts so no one will get hurt.
