3 weeks ago my family complained that they smelled gas inside and outside the car, I later smelled it also. I brought it to a mechanic and they found out the fuel pump has cracks on the top cover and that is causing the leak. I looked into it online and found out from 2005 to 2010 there was recalls on the fuel pump module. I contacted honda and the told me my vehicle was not affected based on my VIN. I started the car this past friday and the car turned off and leaked out fuel from the bottom. It seems I have the same problem as everyone else who has had a problem with these honda odysseys. Was it a mistake my vechicle was skipped out on the recall?

On saturday august 1, 2015, I was on my way from the airport with three other family members when the van suddenly lost power and stalled in the middle of the road. Upon several attempts to restart it, the van would crank, but would not turn over. My fuel gauge and light were not indicating no fuel (which was the first thing that the officer who assisted in pushing the vehicle off the road looked at). The local auto repair shop ran a diagnostics on the vehicle and decided that all the vehicle's six cylinders were mis-firing due to low fuel pressure (5psi) and that I needed a new fuel pump. The last time I had driven the van prior to august 1, was july 21, 2015 when I took it to honda dealer for the fuel pump filter replacement (the vehicle had 147,504 miles on it leaving the dealership). The dealer called to tell me that the reason why the vehicle stopped was that I had run out of fuel. I asked how the cylinder misfirings and check engine light that came on earlier on august 1st was related to an empty tank, the service manager said that they were related. But he said he could not promise that the vehicle will not stall again because all the fuel pump part could be getting old and failing. Now, about the fuel gauge that "failed" to work after the fuel pump recall work was done, the dealership refused to take responsibility and claimed that their technician rechecked what he did on july 21st and found no problem with it. Furthermore, it appears that the problem with the 2005 odyssey fuel pump is deeper than the "filter" replacement patch that honda has improvised to resolve the issue. Please help us go after honda of america to do the right thing by replacing all defective fuel pumps and not just the fuel pump filter.

Both my side doors have been been making noise. Then my passenger side door would not open. We used the drivers side rear door instead. On thursday, june 11, 2015 while opening it the entire door fell off and smashed my foot. Bruising and swelling on my big toe but nothing to go to er over. Iced it and still hurting a few days later. Called honda and they said it was normal wear and tear. My responsibility. Out of warranty. Researched online and this is a very common issue. Doors falling off their vans! Seems ridiculous and time for a recall. Customer service rep said that it was my car and they were not responsible to repair it. I said that coincidentally I just had my van in for a recall (fuel pump - was smelling gas while driving it) so that's not entirely true. Some things they do fix for free. This seems like a major problem. I opened the door for my 9-year-old daughter to get into the car. What is the door fell on her?

One morning as we were started up the engine I noticed a somewhat loud noise as is the muffler had a hole in it. I drove it for awhile and noticed at this point that the noise was heard as we accelerated and when the car went into eco mode. I had stood outside of the vehicle while my wife drove away but did not notice any noise. Thought this was strange. I took it to the honda dealer on a recall, fuel pump, and asked for them to look under it. They reported that it was the motor mount that was worn down. I see that honda odyssey, 2005 (our year model) through 2007 has this problem. Is there any type of action that can be taken to have honda repair this incident without the cost coming from me.

My 2005 honda odyssey ex-l has only about 66,000 miles on it and a honda dealership said that one of the engine mounts has broken when I brought my car in for a honda's fuel pump safety recall service. I searched on the internet and found that there are thousands of honda's owners that are experiencing the same issue with honda vehicles manufactured between 2000 - 2012. The engine mounts on honda vehicles, especially the odyssey, break easily and this seems to be a design flaw that honda has neglected to correct. Engine mounts should not break at about 50,000 miles. They should last even much longer than 100,000 miles. The cost of replacing the engine mount runs at approximately $1000/mount, which is very expensive. Please help look into this issue. Thank you.

At the time of purchase I was forced to obtain an extended warranty, etching and many other things. One year later I began to have problems with the sliding doors. I informed honda because doors are covered under the extended warranty and the dealer refused to do any repairs. Summer of 2014 there's a recall on the fuel pump and the dealership claims that because the doors are stuck closed they cannot repair the recall. However the service advisor opened the sliding doors and still then they refuse to complete the recall. I contacted honda's manufacturer and per the case manager at corporate office," honda cannot help me the recall." I recently learned that on september of 2011 there was an extended warranty on the steering. I informed the case manager that I never received such notice. Her response was "perhaps the notice was mailed to the previous owner, because we go by the address noted at the dmv office."; september of 2011 the vehicle was registered under my name and address, the case manager did not have a response for me. Fuel pump recall has not been repaired.

Brought the car to a honda dealership (tony honda, waipahu hi 96797) for recall (fuel pump) and routine maintenance and two broken motor mounts were discovered (right side and rear side). Was advised that repair of the two broken mounts would most likely lead to damage to the remaining mounts, which would then have to be replaced as well.
