Having to replace the engine motor mounts again. Replaced the front mount in oct. 2014. Faulty again. Checked online and there have been plenty complaints about the motor mounts. Was told engine could fall down when driving. The federal safety agency need to check into this. I'm sure honda is aware of this issue but has done nothing about it.

What owners say
While driving on !-25 south, the car started to choke and almost completely stalled while on the left lane. Tried to merge right and slow down the car. The brakes would not respond. The car was still choked and then gives in and goes again. Took the first exit and continues to press on the brakes to slow down the car. It continued on for a while before reaching a complete stop. After stopping, checked the engine for leaks or smoke and there was nothing. I started the car again and it seem to start fine. Then there was some kind of light noise. I drove it to just the other side of the highway where there were some stores. Took it to the dealer that just performed preventive timing belt replacement. Said that they found broken/seized spark plug in cylinder 2. The work was done at 76000. Current miles is 77990. The issue seem to be happening to 2005 honda odyssey.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda odyssey. The contact stated that while driving 65 MPH, the vehicle stalled and the check engine warning lamp illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The technician diagnosed that the torque converter clutch seized and as a result, the transmission needed to be rebuilt. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 128,000.
First owners ot 2005 odyssey, van has 65k and all service records, dealer tells us we need newtorque converter and 2 new engine mounts. Absolutely shocked by this since previous honda crx lasted over 180k with no major repairs...contacted honda USA for financial assistance.
Dt*: the contact stated while the brake pedal was depressed, there was a growl and intermittent vibration. The dealership alerted the contact that the manufacturer is trying to design a better brake pad. There is also a heavy vibration while the economy load light is illuminated. The dealership has replaced the engine mounts, rotated and balanced the tires, but the problem persists.
