Driver side automatic sliding door unlatched while driving on interstate. I got a emergency tone telling me something was wrong, but no indication on the dash. I found a couple recalls for this problem and stopped by the local honda dealer (piazza), but they said the VIN has no recalls and the recall is too old. I just bought the vehicle a month ago. This is a safety issue known by honda and even if it is happening only now, the dealer should repair at no cost to me.

1999 honda odyssey. Both of driver's and passenger's side sliding doors would not latch properly and could not be secured because both latches broke off . The driver side sliding door plastic latch cracked and broke, and the one on the passenger side sliding door broke off and detached. Both sliding doors can not be secured. It was discovered because the passenger sliding door can not be closed, lead me to inspect the driver side sliding door, and it showed that the latch has been cracked and broke, but it is still in place. It allows the door to close but not latch properly.

There was a recall back on 4/25/00 for the door latch assembly. The recall # was 00v119000. I'm having the same exact problem again with the door not closing all the way. I called hennessey honda in woodstock, ga and they told me that they didn't have that recall on record. Then they went on to say that they won't fix it again. I checked the history of the vehicle recalls and don't see where this was done. Why should I have to pay for this repair when it was already determined that it's a manufacturer defect? Is there a time limit on how long honda will fix this repair for free?

The passenger side sliding door on my 1999 honda odyssey has failed to open on many occasions and I didn't think of it as anything more than a nuisance. This time one of my children's fingers was caught in the door and we were unable to open the door either from the inside or the outside for several minutes until we got a passerby to force it open. His finger was significantly more damaged than if we had been able to immediately open the door, not to mention the panic and distress and being trapped.

Honda odyssey power sliding door trouble.

Filed Aug 20, 2010 · Body · 150,000 miles · NC

I have an honda odyssey van 99' and one of the sliding doors when out first then the other a cple months later. I've been stuck with it jammed open and had to ride home like that w children in the car and taking a turn and one of the door slid open, next to my 3yr.old while I was driving, its done that several times. But now neither of the doors work, so the kids have to climb over the front seat to get in for months now. I've taken it to the honda place and they say its the motor in both doors which will be 900 dollars each to fix! I don't have that. Why has this problem that is a reoccuring problem in alot of honda vans not been recalled!?
