2005 Honda Odyssey fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 41, newest first, as owners wrote them.
During acceleration, and particularly while turning and accelerating (e.g. Left hand turns from a stop light), the vsa indicator (triangle with exclamation point) will flash repeatedly and the vehicle will decelerate (not necessarily brake) until it reaches the standard idle speed or until the wheels straighten out and the vsa indicator stops flashing. This happens when turning either right or left and leaves the vehicle exposed in intersections with unexpected inabilities to accelerate out of an intersection. It is intermittent but happens more often than not.

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.
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.

I have a 2005 honda odyssey touring. There is a strong shuddering and shake when I reach the speeds of 20-30 MPH. This also happens when the eco mode engages. I have also noticed that I am not getting the same fuel economy with this issue. I am hesitant to call honda with my VIN. For the fact of them deleting any recall or problems with my van. After reading many articles about honda owners experiencing the same issues as mine. My only question to the federal safety agency. What are you waiting for to make honda be held responsible for this serious problem. Perhaps honda is paying you off to ignore the problem exist. I have been contacted by honda dealerships wanting to purchase my van. I do not have my van listed for sell or have I thought about selling it. How is it they are able to get my address and phone number? This leads me to believe that honda knows that this problem exist. If they can get owners such as myself for fall for there game plan. The dealer is going to get issue fixed at no charge to them. Then sell the van for much more than they are offering me. Even when I told them no! They continued to call me asking if I would reconsider the offer of selling the van. Is this just coincidence of a cover up by honda or the demand for these vans is high. Hummmm!
Complaint corrected by honda corporate. Strong gas smell on honda odyssey 2005. Was told I had a cracked fuel pump and repair was $565. I saw the other complaints online so I call honda corporate via honda.com and complained and told them I did not have the money. They said take it to a honda dealer to verify the problem, and they gave me a reference number. And said they will see if I can get an out of warranty fix as a good will jester. Today I dropped the car off to hoehn honda in carlsbad and the repair was approved for free as a goodwill jester, and honda is also fixing a seatbealt since the sr light was on and airbag. I am so thrilled. I encourage others to call corporate an let them know that you have seen other complaint on this site, that are to be investigated. Happy day, today!!!
A strong gasoline smell in the cabin and on the outside of the 2005 honda odyssey van. I called honda in october about it they said take to dealer to check fuel relay switch, dealer said it was okay, but to diagnose the smell they have to charge me $120. I did not have the money so I had to leave. Been sick with dealing cancer appointments and , had no time or money to deal with car, finally I took it on 12/6/2016 to a private mechanic for only $40 and they said it had a crack on top of the fuel pump casing. But the whole fuel pump had to be repaired and was going to cost $563. They advised me not to drive it around, so I contacted honda and they said if I take it back to the dealer they might help me with the repair, because they don't want the car to blow up while I am driving it. I inquired as to a recall for this problem and the service adviser stated that she was not aware of any recall notice for the fuel pump problem, but would see if I could get out of warranty help, I told her that I have read online and had printed out so many people stating their 2005 hondas having this same problem. I would like to have this investigated for a recall. Just because I don't have the money to fix this faulty casing which is a common problem, I should not have to risk mine or anyone else's life. I will repost the outcome, honda gave me a reference number and said someone should contact me by the end on 12/09/2013 to let me know if the can help with the cost.
After filling the gas tank; a gasoline smell filled the cabin and continued to exist until the fuel pump was replaced by the honda service department. I inquired as to a recall for this problem and the service adviser stated that he was not aware of any recall notice for the fuel pump problem. A crack was discovered on the top of the device. Would honda be responsible for the replacement of this failed part?
Noticed a strong gas smell outside of the vehicle and a faint one inside. Took it down to the dealers and the said it had a crack in the top of the fuel pump. Honda covered 1/2 of the service charge but not the entire cost since the car was out of warranty. Honda paid half in "goodwill".

Gasoline smell started to come from all around the vehicle. Took it to dealer and they said fuel pump housing has a crack which is made of plastic. Dealer said there were no recall on this but the issue seem to be happening to few others also. I think this should be replaced by manufacturer since it may cause a vehicle to catch fire.

I want people to know that honda now has a software fix for shuddering transmission problems and shaking. Our 2005 odyssey touring would shake between 35-45 MPH. We had the transmission serviced several time and never had a broken engine mount. Honda just came out with this fix in late june 2012 and it seems to have solved our problem. Our honda garage installed this software update for free even though we now have 122k. It only takes 15 minutes. Hope this helps.
Tl*the contact owns a 2005 honda odyssey. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle would not restart and it was towed to an independent repair shop. The contact was told that the vehicle stalled because there was no fuel pressure delivered to the engine.

The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 146,000.
The vehicle engine is shutting off with no warning. There have been approximately 6 instances of the vehicle being operated and then the engine will cut off. The first incident occurred in a parking lot when in reverse. There have been 3 incidents at low speed, while making turns, and 2 incidents while traveling at speed (one at 40 MPH and one at 70 MPH). The vehicle has been taken to the dealer on 3 occasions but the dealer has been unable or unwilling to address the issue because there are no codes sent to the on-board computer. The most recent incident on 3/6/2011 was while traveling at 70 MPH on the interstate highway. We referred the service writer to the federal safety agency campaign id numbers 05v132000 and 07v097000 but he was unwilling to consider that our issue was related to either of these previously noted failures.
2005 honda odyssey won't start, fuel pump problem. There is a known recall for this model year but honda didn't include this VIN.
Car was vibrating for over a year. Took it to dealership numerous times and they couldn't tell me what it was. Recently got into a car accident. Had car repaired. On the way home car started vibrating violently and vsa light came on. Car stopped working. Towed to shop and was told fuel pump needed to be replaced due to bad gas. I asked for sample of gas. Have yet to receive it. Need to know what to do. I saw recall on fuel pump 2005 model year.

Have a 2005 honda odyssey van, it hesitates, or has a flat spot when accelerating at stop sign or traffic light. Have had trouble soon after purchase, and does it way to often. Had a 2002 odyssey which did the same thing so I replaced it with the 2005 and still have the same problem. Yet the honda dealer tells me they have had no other reports about such a problem. At present it is at the dealers. They called me yesterday, and said they could not find the problem. I asked them to keep it a while longer and drive it and maybe they could find the problem.
My wife was driving our 2005 honda odyssey lx van and it died on the highway. She was able to coast to the side, get it to start one more time and limp into a parking lot(it died at the entrance of the lot). The vehicle was towed to the dealer and they looked at it and could not duplicate the problem. It was presumed that it was possible bad gas, or a 1 time glitch. I was told I could pick the vehicle back up. Not feeling comfortable with putting my wife and 1 yr old son back in the vehicle, I drove it 30 miles until the problem duplicated again. It died on a country road. I was told to wait a little bit and try and drive it in, it died several more times before finally dying on a bridge and needing a tow. After a few days the problem was finally tracked down to a faulty fuel pump relay. I was told this part was on national backorder which leads me to believe there may be more cars out there with this problem. If this occurs in the city during a left hand turn, it could have deadly results. I also wonder if this was related the fuse recall (my van was not included in the fuse recall). I am awaiting the part to arrive and be installed.
Dt: the contact stated there was fuel leaking from the vehicle. The dealership found a two inch cut on the side of the fuel tank near the top. The fuel tank was plastic. The dealership stated it appeared she had hit something with the vehicle. The fuel tank was replaced by the insurance company.
