Engine mounts need to be replaced and this is a known issue that Honda has not recognized to take care of the issue. The issue is caused by the vehicle going in and out of ECO mode. This causes wear on the motor mounts which now creates a safety hazard of the engine vibrating and causing more issues. Honda should be replacing these as a recall.

Driving very slowly uphill in a hospital parking deck, the principal driver of the car turned into an available parking slot applying some gas, from 25-30 feet away, only to have the vehicle accelerate uncontrollably, even with the driver's right foot fully engaged with the brake pedal. The van jumped over parking blocks at the end of the space and struck a concrete post, whereupon the engine compartment crumpled and the airbags engaged. The van bounced back approximately twenty feet. Witnesses attracted by the sound of squealing tires, revving engine noise (before impact) and the subsequent crash itself came to render assistance and call police. The driver's right's foot was severely bruised by the crash impact and her sternum fractured. The vehicle was a declared total loss.

I had bought my 2007 Honda Odyssey used in August 2017 prior to our second child being born. It was one family owned with approximately 75K miles on it. About 6 months into it the ac compressor broke causing the car to cease being drivable and requiring a tow to our mechanic. He found that not only did the compressor break but also the serpentine belt and the tensioner had gone. We had the repair done and everything seemed fine until about another six months went by and the same thing happened again. The ac compressor stopped working, the car would not accelerate at all and required a tow and the serpentine belt and tensioner were broken again. All was covered under warranty, but the inconvenience factor is more problematic. This issue has happened four times in the two years that we have owned the vehicle. I have seen similar complaints from other owners of 2007 Honda Odyssey. I have indicated the most recent date of the incident.

- Dinuba, CA, USA

Side and front engine motor mounts are coming apart. This is an Arizona vehicle, not subject to accelerated salt rust. According to Honda owner forums, this is a common problem for which the manufacturer takes no responsibility. Considering the condition and mileage of my vehicle, motor mounts should not be coming apart.

While driving my 2007 model Honda odessey, on June 5th 2018 without any warning signs, vehicle shut off, dash went off. Tried to apply brake, it didn't work. Somehow managed to put the park gear to pull over to a left turn line to avoid collision with other vehicles on the road. 911 was alerted since the vehicle was blocking the left turn line and was not able to even open the door to come out of the van. After few minutes I was able to turn it on and there was no engine sign. No injuries or damage was sustained. I continued driving the van home. After two weeks the engine sign came up and we took it to the Honda authorized dealership. They couldn't find anything wrong which causes this engine shutdown abruptly. They were unable to duplicate the problem. After two days the battery went down. So we replaced the battery with a new one. On July 21, my cousin was driving the van and the same happened again. He pulled over to the side and after few attempts it started again and he rode back and parked at his house. On July 24th, we tried to turn it on but the battery was down. We jump started it on 27th and took it to the same dealership. They kept it doing several tests until July 31st and found nothing wrong with it. They ok'd us to take the vehicle since they couldn't duplicate the issue. We are very much concerned to ride it again fear of safety to our own life and the other innocent fellows on the road. We reported the Honda customer service and they suggested to take it to another dealership. They are not willing to take any responsibility if something happens when we drive the van. We searched online and found few others has reported the same kind of incidents for the same model but different year. I am requesting NHTSA investigate on this issue and give your recommendations

We bought this 2007 Honda Odyssey a few months ago, and ever since we have owned it, it will just keep going for awhile at the same speed we had it at, even though we take our foot off the gas. We have to put it in neutral to stop, or it will pull a bit hard on the brakes. We can stop it like this, but it will wear the brakes out fast. Also, when we put it in drive or reverse, after a few seconds, it speeds up a little. It will just go down the road slowly without putting our foot on the gas. If we leave it in reverse, it will accelerate right through the garage, if we let it. After it is in neutral for a few seconds, it finally goes back down to a regular RPM, but goes back up every 6 seconds or so, then back down, etc... also, when it is idling, and I turn the steering wheel, it revs up again on it's own. We have had the throttle body cleaned, and had it completely checked on a scanner, and nothing came up; everything looked good on the scanner.

My van caught on fire but was not listed as recalled in 2014. It started to smell funny and when I pulled over, the engine compartment was already in flames.

On October 16, 2013, my Honda accelerated at a fast speed up my driveway and caused $6,178.37 in repair costs and slammed into my front porch. The brakes did not work to stop the car. We immediately informed Honda and our insurance carrier of the accident, and the car was towed to Honda in old bridge, NJ, as it could not be driven due to damage. On 11/15/2013, see claims summary, Honda could not determine if this an acceleration issue. They never informed us of what the issue was. Honda did not provide me with a rental car, so I had to rent a car from 10/21/13 to 11/26/13, which I paid $603.96 out of pocket (receipts enclosed). The amount of time Honda was way too long fix my car and I had pay additional rental costs due to their unreasonable delay. Shortly, after Honda repaired my car, I received a recall notice that the brakes were recalled. Really? this is why my car would not stop. There have been several recalls on my Honda. A year after purchase, the engine broke down. I wrote to NJ attorney general, who wrote back and asked that I write to you. I am also attaching pictures of the accident. There are tire marks in the driveway due to the high speed of the acceleration. Photos fluids running down my driveway, and the damaged front end. I have also enclosed NJ manufacturer's, copy of the claim summary dated 11/15/13. This matter is very upsetting to me and the way it was handled by Honda. My husband, also purchased a new Pilot, and my Honda were both purchased new at the same Honda. I know there are acceleration issues with this Honda and this was an acceleration issue and a mechanical issue on the fault of the brakes I am requesting to be reimbursed for the car rental, insurance deductible and a refund of the cost I paid for the Honda in the amount of $28,931.46. My car has never driven the same since the accident.

My Honda Odyssey shuts off completely while driving, at that time you can't turn the steering wheel (or it is very very hard to turn). This is preceded by usually the lights on dashboards flashing. Sometimes it will shut off (dashboard will go black) and come right back after few seconds. Other times the I have to stop and turn it on again and it works. Yesterday it turned off and the car came to stop then I moved the battery little and the hazard light started flashing. When it's completely dead even hazard light would not blink. Today it happened again and even after moving the battery it did not get power back. I had left the hazard light on but it was not blinking. However after around 5 minutes or so on it's own the hazard light started blinking and I could drive off.

The tensioner bolt has sheared off 3 times since the serpentine belt was replaced. In both cases the car was in motion and power steering was lost making it nearly impossible to steer the car safely. Fortunately this did not happen on the highway and occurred on city streets. In all cases our mechanic used original factory parts. This is a significant safety concern for my wife and 5 children. It appears others have experienced similar problem that can be referenced on the following website. www.odyclub.com/forums/showthread.php?T=152628

On 25-Aug-2016 when my wife was driving my van Honda Odyssey 2007 in the highway 210 West bound, the spark plug broken into pieces and went into engine made engine damage. My car has clean maintenance history and it has run only 56K. We diagnosed with Honda dealer (rock Honda, fontana, ca) and suggested engine was damaged broken spart plug and we need fix the engine. And cost is $3900. I have asked help from Honda North America, torrence, ca and Honda na not willing to help with full price, they will pay $600 as good will. My understanding is that, Honda needs to build safety to prevent any broken pieces going into engine and spoiling engine. Also this van put our life in danger during driving on the highway. So, Honda needs to make sure customer's safety in any circumstances and they have cover full cost for repairing my engine.

On 25-Aug-2016, my wife was driving my vehicle Honda Odyssey on highway 210 West bound. Suddenly she started smelling very bad smell and she pulled the vehicle from highway and ride into gas station. Then I called aaa for help and towed the vehicle to nearest mechanic shop don's mobil shop. The mechanic diagnosed that my van's spark plug was broken and pieces of it went into engine's piston and damaged my engine. My vehicle has clean service record with Honda dealer and mileage on my van 56K. Then I took it to Honda dealer (rock Honda) for diagnosis and Honda dealer also diagnosed that engine has been damaged by spark plug and cost of repair is $3900. Then I opened a case with Honda North America division for help us to fix this engine as this should not happen for 56K mileage and my understanding is that this vehicle was defective spark plug which caused my engine broke. I was doing regular maintenance with Honda dealer, this never came up during maintenance time. Honda North America refused to help and agreed to $600 as good will. I need Honda's help to fix my engine.
