Potential Consequences:
I HAVE HAD THIS VERY PROBLEM IN MY 2018 EX WITH NAV RES. I'LL BE ON THE HIGHWAY, GOING 65MPH+, AND I WILL ACCELERATE TO CHANGE LANES OR PASS AND THE ENGINE WILL SEEMINGLY STALL FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. AS I PRESS THE GAS, THE CAR ACTUALLY DECELERATES AS IF IT'S COASTING IN NEUTRAL. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, IT REENGAGES, THE ENGINE REVS A LITTLE, AND THE CAR BEGINS ACCELERATION. I ALSO OFTEN NOTICE THAT THE VAN DOES A SIMILAR THING WHEN I'M ACCELERATING FROM A STOP TO ENTER TRAFFIC OR MAKE A TURN. WHEN I HIT THE GAS, THE CAR COASTS FORWARD FOR A SECOND BEFORE ACTUALLY ACCELERATING. IT IS ACTUALLY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN THERE HAS BEEN ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY 'CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM.' TODAY MY DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD OPEN A CASE WITH HONDA, WHICH I DID. I WAS TOLD THAT THE 9-SPEED TRANSMISSION WAS DISCONTINUED BECAUSE CONSUMERS 'COMPLAINED' AND 'DIDN'T LIKE IT.' THEY FURTHER SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THEREFORE COULD NOT FIX IT. IN THE CASE OF MY VAN, IT IS DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS. MY SON IS LEARNING TO DRIVE AND I AM FEARFUL FOR HIS SAFETY. I HAVE FELT IN DANGER IN THIS CAR MYSELF. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT TO WHOM I COULD SPEAK TO ADDRESS MY CONCERNS, I WAS DIRECTED TO 'PAGE 2 OF THE ONLINE OWNER'S MANUAL.' THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP FREQUENTLY WITHOUT RESOLUTION.

Potential Consequences:
2018 HONDA ODYSSEY EXL RESNAV W/ 9SPEED AT ASIDE FROM THE TRANSMISSION I ALSO WROTE UP OUR ODYSSEY HAS USED THE COLLISION MITIGATION AUTO BRAKING SYSTEM SEVERAL TIMES TO NOT JUST SLOW BUT COMPLETELY STOP THE VEHICLE. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN JUST ONCE. OR JUST TO MY WIFE THE PRIMARY DRIVER. IT'S HAPPENED TO BOTH OF US MULTIPLE TIMES. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE HAVING THE CAR 'TAKE THE CONTROLS' AND STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN YOU HAVE THE ACCELERATOR DEPRESSED TO PASS A VEHICLE THIS IS UNSAFE. DOUBLY SO WHEN THE VEHICLE BEHIND YOU ANTICIPATES YOUR ACCELERATION AND NEARLY REAR ENDS YOU. OR THE TIME MY WIFE HAD A CAR CROSS TRAFFIC LEFT TO RIGHT TOO CLOSE TO HER AND THE SURROUNDING VEHICLES TURNING INTO THE LOCAL CHICK FIL A. THE VEHICLES TO HER LEFT AND RIGHT WERE ABLE TO SLOW AND THEN PROCEED. OUR ODYSSEY STOPPED DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 6 LANE ROAD THAT USUALLY RUNS 45. SHE WAS NEARLY HIT DUE TO THE OVERLY AGGRESSIVE STOP FROM THE CMBS. TURNING LEFT WITH A GREEN ARROW THE VAN WILL EVEN ATTEMPT TO STOP WHEN IT DETECTS TRAFFIC SITTING ON THE OPPOSING SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION YIELDING RIGHT OF WAY. AND WILL ALSO LOCK ON TO VEHICLES TURNING LEFT FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND STOP. THIS IS COMPLETELY AND 100% UNACCEPTABLE, UNSAFE AND HAS DESTROYED MY OPINION OF HONDA WHICH WAS STERLING UP UNTIL NOW. WE MAY BE TRADING THIS THING SOON.

2018 HONDA ODYSSEY EXL RESNAV W/ 9SPEED AT ASIDE FROM THE TRANSMISSION I ALSO WROTE UP OUR ODYSSEY HAS USED THE COLLISION MITIGATION AUTO BRAKING SYSTEM SEVERAL TIMES TO NOT JUST SLOW BUT COMPLETELY STOP THE VEHICLE. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN JUST ONCE. OR JUST TO MY WIFE THE PRIMARY DRIVER. IT'S HAPPENED TO BOTH OF US MULTIPLE TIMES. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE HAVING THE CAR 'TAKE THE CONTROLS' AND STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN YOU HAVE THE ACCELERATOR DEPRESSED TO PASS A VEHICLE THIS IS UNSAFE. DOUBLY SO WHEN THE VEHICLE BEHIND YOU ANTICIPATES YOUR ACCELERATION AND NEARLY REAR ENDS YOU. OR THE TIME MY WIFE HAD A CAR CROSS TRAFFIC LEFT TO RIGHT TOO CLOSE TO HER AND THE SURROUNDING VEHICLES TURNING INTO THE LOCAL CHICK FIL A. THE VEHICLES TO HER LEFT AND RIGHT WERE ABLE TO SLOW AND THEN PROCEED. OUR ODYSSEY STOPPED DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 6 LANE ROAD THAT USUALLY RUNS 45. SHE WAS NEARLY HIT DUE TO THE OVERLY AGGRESSIVE STOP FROM THE CMBS. TURNING LEFT WITH A GREEN ARROW THE VAN WILL EVEN ATTEMPT TO STOP WHEN IT DETECTS TRAFFIC SITTING ON THE OPPOSING SIDE OF THE INTERSECTION YIELDING RIGHT OF WAY. AND WILL ALSO LOCK ON TO VEHICLES TURNING LEFT FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION AND STOP. THIS IS COMPLETELY AND 100% UNACCEPTABLE, UNSAFE AND HAS DESTROYED MY OPINION OF HONDA WHICH WAS STERLING UP UNTIL NOW. WE MAY BE TRADING THIS THING SOON.

I HAD THE HONDA ODYSSEY IN AT LEAST 8 TIMES FOR A JERKY TRANSMISSION. IT WAS ACTUALLY REPLACED AT 15,000 MILES (1/21/19) WITH A NEW ONE, NO PROBLEM FOR ANOTHER 15,000. THEN IN SEPT OF 2019 THE PROBLEM REAPPEARED AFTER 3 SERVICE CALLS AND NUMEROUS FAX AND TELEPHONE CALLS BASICALLY HONDA CUSTOMER CARE SAID I DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM. THEN ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING THRU BUSY DOWNTOWN GRAND RAPIDS THE ODYSSEY DOWNSHIFTED ON ITS OWN WHILE THE WIFE AND MOTHER IN LAW WERE DRIVING. MY WIFE ALMOST LOST CONTROL BUT WAS ABLE TO PULL OF THE ROAD. AT THAT POINT I TRADED THE CAR IN. AND SENT A LETTER TO HONDA CUSTOMER CARE AND BETTEN HONDA IN MUSKEGON THAT I SUGGEST THE CAR COMES OFF THE ROAD. AS I KNOW THE NEXT PERSON WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE ISSUE IS THAT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IS RANDOM AND UNPREDICTABLE AND CAN NOT BE RECREATED OR DETECTED BY A COMPUTER CHECK. BUT IT IS VERY REAL. TO THE POINT WHERE I WAS WILLING TO LOSE 12,000 DOLLARS. NOT AN EASY PILL TO SWALLOW. MY HOPE IS THAT NO ONE ELSE GETS HURT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM, BUT I CAN SEE IT COMING.
