2011 Honda Odyssey tires problems

Have a recurring issue with TPMS light on my honda mini-van. Have been to the dealer several times to have it looked at, the code coming back is "radio frequency third wheel", and this light on the dashboard will not shut off. The dealer told me this is something they cannot fix. Honda corp needs to acknowledge the problem and inform dealers how to fix the TPMS indicator light. I have read that smart phones, laptops, etc can cause this problem, which should not even be an issue. I will always have my smart phone with me for safety purposes. Technology should never be an interference issue with TPMS. This indicator jolts/scares me when it comes on, most times on the highway nearly causing an accident. The dealer today told me to put black tape over the lights so they don't bother me, that was their answer!! Not acceptable. ....updated 11/13/15 *bf I went to a non-honda repair shop who fixed the faulty sensor and all is good with the van. The honda dealer was incorrectly telling me that it was a radio frequency error due to the electronics in my car. I went to another place, who diagnosed and fixed the TPMS perfectly.

The tire pressure monitoring system warning came on after seasonal wheel/tire change by tire dealer. Each time that the tire dealer tried to program the honda system it malfunctioned after approximately 24 hours of operation. All parts are of honda manufacture. During the periods of that TPMS flashed on the instrument panel one has no way of knowing if tires are safely inflated. I was forced to drive over 200 miles over 3 days in order to reach a honda dealer. The dealer "found TPMS sensors were not programmed to vehicle... Reprogrammed sensors". I understand that honda is unique among auto manufacturers in it's TPMS system not being serviceable by the tire industry that the public must rely on for safe operation of honda cars.

We purchased a brand new van with continental contipro contact tires (brand new). After about 15,000 miles we noticed the tires becoming brittle and blistering. Several tires were losing air. We brought it to a mechanic for a routine oil change and when it was put on the lift he found 6 places that small pebbles had actually punctured the tire and created holes that had to be plugged to drive it safely home. The mechanic informed us that the tires were very dangerous to drive on because they were literally falling apart, blistering, and being punctured by small pebbles. After speaking to continental tire company they informed me that because I plugged the tires the warranty was void and the warranty only covered defective tires. In the opinion of the mechanic, they are defective tires. We have been left to pay for brand new tires for our van that was bought brand new so we can safely drive our family van.

Bought the odyssey 2011 exl and drove for 100 miles. Then the TPMS lights came on and stayed on for ever. Taken an appoint with honda service and they would like to adjust the tire pressure. Still need to take it to the dealer and see what they say.

There seems to be an interference between using a bluetooth phone when paired with the vehicles hands free link system (hfl) and the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Vehicle was brand new off the truck (only 4 miles on it) and as soon as my iphone 4 was paired with the vehicles hfl system, the TPMS failed. I've researched online forums and am seeing a growing list of owners reporting the same issue.

Bought the odyssey 2011 exl and drove for 5 miles from the dealor when the TPMS lights came on and stayed on for ever. Taken an appoint with honda service and they would like to adjust the tyre pressure. Another dealter would like to reset the whole sensor settings. By talking to them, I felt that they are not much aware about this frequent issue.

Purchased 2011 honda odyssey on 3/19. Upon leaving the dealership the TPMS (tire pressure monitering system) light illuminated and stayed on. Stays on even with engine restart. Tire pressures were above door post recomendations. Dealer requires return of the vehicle for inspection.
