NHTSA Complaint #10263910 — 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY

DRIVERS SIDE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE, IT WOULD COME VERY CLOSE TO CLOSING AND THEN WOULD RETREAT BACKWARDS AS IF SOMETHING WAS IN ITS WAY, THOUGH NOTHING WAS. I WAS ABLE TO MANUALLY CLOSE THE DOOR. THE SAME DAY THIS OCCURRED, MY HUSBAND CHECKED THE CAR AND TRIED TAKING OUT THE FUSES TO SEE IF WE COULD RESET THE DOORS "MEMORY'. THE DOOR WOULD THEN CLOSE, NO DOOR LIGHT WAS LIT ON THE DASH, NOR WAS THERE A BEEPING NOISE WHICH INDICATES DOOR IS OPEN. THE DOOR DID APPEAR SLIGHTLY AJAR THOUGH. MY HUSBAND DROVE THE CAR DOWN THE ROAD, THANKFULLY THIS TIME WITHOUT MY KIDS IN THE CAR, AND THE DRIVERS SIDE PASSENGER DOOR OPENED BY ITSELF ON 3 OCCASIONS BEFORE RETURNING HOME, ONLY A COUPLE OF MILES. WE HAVE AN APPT IN THE MORNING AT A HONDA DEALER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON LINE, OTHER PEOPLE REPORT THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO THEIR HONDA ODYSSEY MINIVAN AS WELL. *TR
