CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2007-2009 was, at one point, the best selling minivan in the United States. But 2007 owners got the short end of that deal.
Peeling paint, a whining steering pump and an easily breakable A/C condenser are all top complaints about the 2007 model year. And anyone who doesn't think a busted minivan A/C is a big deal has never taken a summer road trip with kids.

not sure (2 reports)
repair the hydraulic arms that hold door up (2 reports)
replaced the tailgait open stay assemblies (pistons) (1 reports)
I replaced the tailgate stay open assemblies myself. It was not difficult. I ordered the parts online.
The failure did not cause injury but it could have, as the tailgate is very heavy. It is dangerous to operate the tailgate in this condition.
I did not attempt to get it fixed under warranty because that is always such a hassle, and the repair was not difficult. I don't think the parts should fail at such a young age - 3 1/2 years.
This is second set of lift gates that will be replaced. When they've failed, the gate abruptly falls on the person causing bodily injury to head and body.

Tailgate would not assist in opening or hold open, so loading and unloading is a pain. Honda fixed for free, and now it works fine.
