Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda odyssey. The contact stated that the vehicle was parked and she opened the rear sliding door on the driver's side. While opening the door, two pins detached from the back end of the door and the door hung downward. The contact examined the pins and noticed that they were corroded. An authorized dealer was notified, but offered no assistance. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 97,000. Updated 6/4/12
Sliding doors do not latch completely. They close but a few seconds later open again with light showing they are open. Doors have come open while driving with children in back, even when they were supposed to be locked. This is a huge safety issue despite children being secured in a seatbelt.
Sliding door will get stuck. Center door bracket 72521-shj-a21 is defective, small plastic wheel will get worn and comes off. Improper design and lack of routine lubrication is the cause.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda odyssey. The contact stated the passenger side automatic sliding door would not lock. Whenever the vehicle was in motion, the door would automatically open without the driver opening the door. The vehicle was taken to the dealer but the vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was contacted who stated there were no recalls for the failure and offered no further assistance. The failure mileage was 140,000.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda odyssey. The contact stated the passenger side sliding door was malfunctioning.

The contact did not have the door inspected or repaired. The failure mileage was 55,000 and the current mileage was 97,000.
The driver side electric sliding door will not close all the way.
The driver side rear sliding door on my 2005 honda odyssey opened while I was driving down the road at 55 MPH. If this is not a safety issue, I don't know what is!!!!!!
2005 honda odyssey liftgate struts failed. Opened the rear liftgate to remove something from the trunk and the liftgate did not stay up. Now everytime I try and open the liftgate, I would need to open with one hand and remove items or put items inside with the other hand.
Left (driver's side) sliding door on honda odyssey will not close or lock. Had to drive to the dealer with the door constantly opening and my children inside the car. My friend sat on the back seat to try to keep the door closed. I do think this is a safety issue since this happened out of the blue without any warning at all. The dealer said that "honda does not see it as a safety issue". I see the door property closing as a safety issue since it is a family car with children involved. I see it as a safety issue just like I see seat belts as a safety issue. I think there is something wrong with this problem, it is unsafe.
