Consumer Description

ON MARCH 14, 2008, WHEN STARTING 2001 HONDA ODYSSEY, A LOUD BANG SOUNDED. VEHICLE WAS NOT MOVING WHEN BANG SOUNDED. MILEAGE 39,139. VEHICLE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE, PULLING STRONGLY TO RIGHT. HUSBAND CHECKED VEHICLE, FOUND RIGHT FRONT COIL SPRING BROKEN. ORDERED NEW COIL SPRING AND STRUT AND REPLACED. ON DECEMBER 17, 2008, UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE HEARD ANOTHER LOUD BANG, WHILE VEHICLE NOT MOVING, AND HAD GREAT DIFFICULTY DRIVING IT, AS IT WAS PULLING STRONGLY TO THE LEFT. HUSBAND FOUND LEFT COIL SPRING BROKEN. MILEAGE 43,743. TALKED TO HONDA USA, AND REPORTED PROBLEM. TOOK TO DEALER TO CONFIRM LEFT COIL SPRING BROKEN. BOTH BROKEN PARTS HAD NO CORROSION, IT WAS A CLEAN BREAK. PARTS CURRENTLY ORDERED THROUGH HONDA ESTORE. HONDA REVIEWING CASE. FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS FOR SAME PROBLEM ON YOUR SITE, AND OTHERS. HOW SERIOUS OF AN ACCIDENT MUST IT BE BEFORE YOU WILL FIND THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE COIL SPRINGS? THANK GOODNESS MY CHILDREN WEREN'T IN THE VEHICLE, AND I HADN'T BEEN MOVING WHEN THE COIL SPRINGS BROKE. *TR
