Honda Odessey 2013Driving down a highway at 55mph when we heard a loud backfire. Engine light came on, car shook violently. We immediately pulled into a gas station where a mechanic was present. Mechanic scanned for codes and codes p0302 and P0303 came up. The cylinders had rotated and aligned fouling the spark plugs. and damaging the coil. Had we continued to drive we would have ruined the engine. He changed the coil and spark plugs but noted that the oil consumption was extremely high since last change due to the VCM issue. The Honda Service Bulletin 13-081 revealed the VCM system poses risk of ruining the engine. When I returned home, I inquired what could be done to fix it. The local dealership said purchase a new engine and spark plugs. The warranty fix for this ended in 2021 and I did not buy the car until 2022. The same faulty system has been on the Odessey since 2011 and continues to be installed as of this date 2024. This issue along with the peeling paint coming off in large sheets from the roof and rear door make this car a complete failure and safety hazard.

Severe Paint chipping at roof

Filed Mar 27, 2021 · Body · 125,000 miles · NC

Van has the braun conversion package (wheelchair accessible van). While parked the passenger sliding door fell completely off of the van as if was closing. No prior issues with the door. The motor to the wheelchair ramp has needed to be replaced twice. The first replacement ramp motor did not last 18 months and cost over $1800 to replace. When you hit any of the buttons to engage the ramp, you hear the motor, however it is not moving. You must physically pull the ramp out and lift it up. I was told the the gear system in the motor goes bad often. The door still works(until today) when you hit the button to open or close.

Paint is fading, bubbling, and pealing in multiple places on the exterior of the car. I've seen the mentions of the back hatch/door, but we're seeing it on the doors as well as the back hatch.

We were on vacation last week as we were driving at approximately 70mph on I-64 eastbound in virginia we heard a loud popping sound an then loud airflow. We quickly realized our sunroof had exploded. Thankfully we had it closed and the shade was also closed and no one was hurt. Nothing hit our van and we were not involved in a accident the sunroof just suddenly exploded. When we were able to pull over we found the center of our sunroof was completely shattered. We have found other reports online of this happening.
