2005 honda odyssey '-the sliding doors fell off !!!!!!. I researched and discovered a numerous amount of problems with the sliding doors. There is a recall for newer models and they too have the exact same issues. The problems range from a grinding noise , auto doors not opening completely than closing. To the back of the door slightly opening then the beeping indicator is constantly on while driving. The battery is being drained because the doors never close completely. The center rollers are cheap plastic which I believe causes the grinding noise. Once they wear out it gets worse. These are not some isolated complaints!! There are too many others with every year of the odyssey that have these issues !! And now I finally see a recall. All theses issues have happened during different times. Some while stationary. Some while driving. The worst one where the door literally fell off was parked in my drive way. (thank god) I took it to the dealership and they diagnosed the problem and rigged my door but it is not safe to drive. Why was this not recalled a long time ago?? There are too many complaints to ignore this !! The newer models have been recalled for this exact problem . I owned an accord for 14 years over 300,000 miles. The best car I ever had. Than bought this 2005 odyssey and just recently purchased a 2018 crv ex. It's wrong that honda does not back up their reputation.

Our 2005 honda odyssey vibrates, especially around 35-45 MPH. Honda told us that the engine mounts have broken and that is what is causing it. They are not a cheap fix. Engine mounts, the last thing that you would think would go out on a vehicle! Yet, when you go online, this apparently seems to be a massive problem with these vans. Honda has a problem with their engine mounts braking and this seems to be ok with them. This is not ok. They need to take responsibility for this failure. We have already been through having to replace many other failures from honda throughout the years, including replacing the fuel cap before they recalled it. We will no longer be purchasing honda vehicles.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda odyssey. The contact stated that while driving, the steering wheel was tight and the serpentine belt fractured. In addition, the bolts fractured associated with the suspension pulleys more than twice causing a failure. The vehicle was towed more than once and taken to an independent mechanic a third time, who replaced the serpentine belt, the bolts and the pulleys. The independent mechanic checked with the manufacturer on the oem parts that had been ordered and they stated that the bolts were newly designed but provided no resolution on why the bolts prematurely fractured three times. The independent mechanic repaired the vehicle. The contact was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 05v039000 (steering). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.

One owner of a 2005 honda odyssey. Vehicle used to drive back and forth to work, general errands, occasional drive out of town. Within the past couple of months, my wife noticed severe shaking of steering wheel when accelerating at 65 MPH. Vehicle taken to shop, had vehicle inspected: usual tire rotation, alignment, balancing performed; however problem persisted, and replaced two new tires. Took vehicle back to same shop, alignment and balancing re-done; however, problem persisted. Took vehicle to different shop--purchased 4 new tires, and had alignment and balancing performed once again; however, problem persisted. Had tires replaced and alignment and balancing performed yet again; however, problem persists. Advised by shop manager that he is 95% sure based on driving test that motor mounts are in need of replacement. It is my opinion that the motor mounts are prematurely failing, and thus deemed to be faulty, and that they should be replaced by honda a their expense. Too many other honda odyssey owners with same issue, and expensive repairs.
