2007 Honda Odyssey: transmission slipping

Filed Apr 24, 2019 · Body · TN

The drivers side rear sliding door fell off. We are lucky no one got hurt. My 81 year old mother-in-law had to sit in back and hold it to let me know if it started slipping. We were in a grocery store parking lot and when it was opened it just fell. A small amount of damage to the vehicle but thank god that is all the damage that day.

While driving our 2007 honda odyssey (42,000 miles) the brakes automatically activated. On october 24, 2010, my husband and I had just taken off on the highway, and had reached approximately 45-50 MPH. All of a sudden I thought he had slammed on brakes in the middle of the highway. He said they did it on their own. We drove another 1/2 mile to a gas station and it happened two more times. Once we pulled into the gas station he pressed on the brake pedal a few times, and checked to make sure the emergency break wasn't on, or that the car didn't slip out of gear. Everything seemed fine, so we ventured the additional 5 miles to home with no additional problems. Today is sunday, so I will be taking the van to the dealership tomorrow.

My 2007 honda odyssey has twice had the following problem. Both times it was in conditions where the anti-lock brakes were (presumably) engaged: once coming to stop on a very wet street in rain, and the second on a very snowy, poor traction street. Both times I was braking harder than usual while decelerating to come up to a stop sign/light and the ABS engaged. The initial slowing was fine, no slipping, but as I decelerated through about 3-5 MPH, the brakes refused to work. I pressed the pedal harder but the brakes would no longer engage. I was moving very slowly, but unable to stop (and this was not due to road surface, it was due to the brakes refusing to engage). The first time I narrowly avoided hitting the car in front of me. The second time I just continued forward halfway through the intersection. I am a commercial pilot and it felt like the antilock brakes had released, and then refused to re-engage. I tried pumping them as well. No response. The pedal still had braking feel, just no brake engagement. Perhaps the ABS should cut out below 2 MPH or some preset number and this did not happen? Anyway, in those conditions, you need to be able to stop...even if you're traveling extremely slowly, being unable to stop the vehicle from entering the intersection through the red light is very dangerous.

My 2007 odyssey has been slipping on inclines when I take my foot off the brake or go from r to d. Initially the slipping was a couple of inches and was denied as defect by dealership. Now the car slips a foot or more. Last year I was stopped in sf and when I hit the accelerator, I rolled back into the car behind me despite my flooring the gas. I have recently almost rolled into the door of a parked car with a child standing by the parked car while backing up on an incline. Dealership states it is known defect and will not fix. I am afraid of rolling into another car, child etc. Honda corporate says it is part of the car and will not fix, but will not provide me with documentation of this "known defect". I have also had to replace my tires yearly and replace my front brakes after 18 months. My condenser on my A/C also froze up this week in 110 heat with my 4 small kids in the car and my son had an asthma attack.

About 3 months after I purchased the brand new, 2007, honda odyssey I noticed a reluctant feeling when I drove it. Even when I drove it around town for everyday errands or if needed to take long trips I still felt like my car was fighting me. Each time I brought my car in I would ask them to look the car over for a problem that would convey why I was having this bucking feeling. My first documented complaint was in april of 2008. They stated they could not find anything. My second complaint was october of 2008 stating the vehicle hesitates. Everytime I took it in to dch kay honda in old bridge where we purchased the car they found nothing. It was not until my brother drove in my car in the winter of 2009, when he said there is something wrong with my transmission that I should take it to a transmission dealer and get it checked. I knew that if an independent transmission dealer looked at it or took it apart my warranty would be void so I found one who took it for a road test and stated that the transmission is slipping down to 4th and some how jumping into 5th automatically. After this I took it to dch kay honda in eatontown and stated what was found out in feb. Of 2009. They said again they could not find anything. I still have a reluctant feeling when I am driving the car but feel as though my time is being wasted by running back and forth to these dealers. I not only loose time, money but my car while either waiting for it or being without at home.
