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.

On July 15, 2017 we were loading the van for vacation and the passenger sliding door fell off, landing on my 14 year daughters leg/foot. On August 28, 2017 my son went to unlock the van and pressed the sliding door opener by accident, the passenger door again fell off. The door fell off on top of my 8 year old son. The kids were therefore late for their first day of school. When the door fell off, it bent the track and scratched the whole passenger back side of my van. While my daughter and I tried putting the door back on the door slipped out of the track again and damaged the front passenger door, denting the bottom of the front passenger door. That afternoon I went to the Honda dealer in grandville Michigan and talked to randy howes. He refused to listen to me and directed me to look in the manual and contact Honda. So I called the 1-800 number in my manual. I retold what had happened and was told this was a serious incident and that I would hear back with in 2 days. After a week a began calling again, I finally received a call back from rio wardana from Honda. I retold him again what had happened and told him I wanted the door fixed and the damaged fixed that the door caused. He was very disrespectful and told me he had never heard of any door falling off a Honda van. I informed him of the 100S of complaints on line but he refused to listen. I was told the door falling off was my fault and not Honda. I asked him what to do because the other door was acting funny as well. He said to use the hatch back door for entering if I needed to and he hung up on me. I have been battling Honda ever since and can get no where. My door is not dangerous. I cannot have my children near it with the fear of it falling off again and I can find no one to help me with this case. Please tell me what to do to hold Honda accountable for their vehicle safety concern!!
The sliding door on my Odyssey fell off. It literally fell off right onto my body while I was pumping gas. Not only did this cause physical harm to my person, but it resulted in substantial body damage to the vehicle panel.
The driver's side sliding door bumps and grinds when opening and closing. It will suddenly stop then reverse direction. It has almost shut on several people. I've delt with it for years but today I realized that water is leaking in the same door. I realized this when I went to put on my seat belt and it was frozen inside and wet. My rear driver's side belt was also wet. After realizing this I saw a wet stain along the whole top of the sliding door. So disappointed.
The contact owns a 2007 Honda Odyssey. While driving approximately 55 mph, the rear driver side sliding door operated independently. The dealer was unable to diagnose the cause of the failure due to lack of payment. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
My Honda Odyssey driver side sliding door had been shaking, making noises, and opening and closing mid way for a few weeks when the door finally popped out! we were returning from a family trip and after we pulled into our driveway around 1:30 am and parked, my husband used the sliding door to get our toddler out. As he reached in and picked her up, the door began to close and he pushed her back in. Then there was a loud banging noise and the door popped out and was hanging by the hinges. We could not blieve what just happened. Fearing that the door would fall off, we quickly took the kids in and my husband and son attempted to put the door back on as quickly and safely as we could with our phones flashlights for visibility. It took a while but they managed to lift and push it up where it was no longer hanging but wasn't closed all the way either. We covered the door and openings with trash bags to seal out the rain that was getting in. Later that morning we went out to inspect the damage. The trash bags had blown off and the seats were wet, the door had scratched the exterior of the van deeply. The next business day which was Monday the 4th, I called my Honda service station and told them what happened he said he had heard about the problem but I needed to call Honda corporate and see if they would pay for repairs. I called corporate and was told that due to he high mileage of my vehicle they would not pay. I told him that while researching why the door would just pop out, I found hundreds of complaints about the same issue and not all the vans had high mileage but Honda refused to help them too it was unsafe when the door was shaking and closing as we would try to get in or out but now we cannot get out of that door in case of anemergency I believe Honda has a serious safety issue with these doors and is refusing to acknowledge it.
My vehicle has a strong gassy smell when I start it up. Both my passenger doors have fallen off the hinges while stationery and my check fuel cap light constantly flashes while in motion.
I was involved in a three car accident. I was the third car, we were leaving from a traffic light on highway Maryland 301 that just turned green. According to the driver of the second car, driver of car one slammed on her brakes after taking off. I than ran into car number two. I sustained front end damage and my air bags did not deploy.
The paint has been peeling on the hood starting small and growing exponentially larger and expanding to the area on the roof between the windshield and sunroof. This defect has been noted in other cars similar to ours.
The passenger side sliding door will not close completely using powered closing mechanism. When the power mechanism is turned off on the dashboard and the door is closed manually by hand, it stays closed but only for a few seconds. Then the back part of the door pops open. It does not matter how many times the back of the door is pushed closed (and the lock button hurriedly locked) the back of the door will pop open. When it is being driven down the road/highway the door open light is on, the door is not closed completely and road/highway noise is heard from the partially open door. On occasion, (when turning right, going downhill, going over certain bumps) the light will go off and the door will "close" but this is only temporary. As soon as the turn is finished, not going downhill, or go over another small bump, the door will pop open in the back and the light will turn back on. This is a safety issue, especially because children are transported in the vehicle!
Hi, I own Honda Odyssey 2007 and I've notice the paint from the roof top toward the front side is peeling off slow and its getting bigger and bigger. This paint is not cause by any accident damage or anything but I believe its defected by the Honda manufacture painting it self. I've checked online about this problem and a lot of owner of this type of car have the same problem. Honda company should be responsible to repair this kind of defect at no cost to any Honda owner's.
Approximately 3 weeks ago, my wife went out to our driveway to start her day and suddenly the passenger door and liftgate on our low mileage 2007 Honda Odyssey minivan would not open. Neither could be opened via remote or physical level (interior or exterior). At the same time, the right tail light stopped lighting. The dealership cannot explain the coincidence, which suggests some sort of electical issue which broke multiple actuators, but regardless it is a huge safety issue. Right now occupants could very well be trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. The dealer has provided an estimate of $1000 to repair, and I believe they should address the issue at their expense as there are many, many reports of Honda suffering from these door and liftgate issues. Please help make them accountable before someone is injured or killed. Thanks
