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.

I was parked at Walmart and got groceries came out opened my sliding door and it fell off the hinges due to bad hardware says it will cost 2500 to fix wtf. Then a month later the other fell off also why when there are so many other reports of this happening is there not a recall already or at least an investigation. I mean come on you don't even have an option for reporting sliding door falling off
My power sliding door pulls shut but then pops out enough to register that the door is open. Pulling on the door does not pull away from the body when it is physically pulled. The power door button on the dash and the key fob do not work for that same door. I have tried shutting off and turning on the switch with no response. I'm afraid that the door will slide open while driving.
We drove the Honda Odyssey 2007 to a nearby swimming pool and opened the driver side sliding door. The door resisted opening and fell off onto the ground. Nobody was hurt but someone was almost hurt. The door had made grinding noises and was difficult to open for about a week before the incident happened.
Paint is peeling off. When I touch the paint, it peels and flakes off. I can't even wash certain areas of it now because when I spray the water hose at it, the paint flakes off.
Power sliding doors on EXL model becomes slightly ajar/open after the door is closed and the power to the sliding doors is off. Furthermore, door slid open while the vehicle is moving (happened 3 times over the years) with our family dog falling out of the car in the most recent situation. (In the other two times, door slid open next to my kids who were buckled in and thus were not harmed). Please note that for the Honda Odyssey, all doors are automatically locked when the transmission is shifted out of PARK. Thus the door should not open on its own especially while the vehicle is moving. Dealership cannot replicate the problem and wants to replace the door latches which have previously been replaced (when the first two incidents happened). Even with this repair, they cannot guarantee that the door will not slide open while the vehicle is moving.
Right passenger door feel off hinge and hung. I had to catch the door since I was by myself. Yes issue was confirmed with dealer. No inspection from insurance or police. No indications of failure of door, automatic door function was not work so manual function was engaged.
I was in my driveway parked when my passenger side back sliding door wouldn't close so I turned off the electric for the sliding doors and tried to close it manually and it wouldn't budge then it just feel off track clearly there have been numerous reports on this and nothing has been done what would happen if I was driving down the road and this happened. Something needs to be done and better parts need to be made.
Passenger sliding door fell off. 11-02-2020 in a parking lot away from home. And now wont slide back when trying to open to replace cheap made rolles and thin cable is cheap. Some things are worth the extra few dollars to be guaranteed quality parts. Comr on Kia even done better in their beginning. I will buy Kia next time too.
The tailgate suddenly stopped staying up. I have seen a recall on 2008 and 2009 Odyssey for the same issue. We are going to have to replace the struts that hold the gate up.
Sliding doors won't lock the sliding door will just pop open again. Have child lock engaged and door locked from inside. I have found about 40 cars with this problem in just columbus Ohio alone that are 2007. The cost to repair is 500$ which is failing most of the youtube videos are showing.
The sliding door struggled to close in a parking lot, continually stopping mid slide and opening up again. After trying to close it a few times, the wheel on the top of the door fell off the track, leaving the door hanging only by the guide wire in the middle of the door. The paint on the side of the vehicle was scratched badly and the vehicle required a tow and a trip to the mechanic. The door fell off again only a week later.
My vehicle was parked and was in a parking lot in lake city. I was out shopping with my family and I pressed button to ipen passenger sliding door and the door came off the railing hanging by a cable. I had a small child with me and that is dangerous. I just bought this vehicle so I have not had it long. Regardless of the miles on the vehicle this is unsafe.
The drivers side rear sliding door fell off. We are lucky no one got hurt. My 81 year old mother-in-law had to sit in back and hold it to let me know if it started slipping. We were in a grocery store parking lot and when it was opened it just fell. A small amount of damage to the vehicle but thank god that is all the damage that day.
The driver's side rear sliding door fell off. Very scary and caused damage. 81 year old mother-in-law sat next to it holding it for the trip home. Horrible we were in a grocery store parking lot. When we opened it it just fell.
Sliding side door rear latch will not stay latched using automatic closing mechanism or manually closing the door while standing still. Warning light and buzzer indicate unlatched door. Sometimes happens during driving. I have not yet had it to the dealer.
