NHTSA Complaint #10328344 — 2010 HONDA ODYSSEY

IN COLD WEATHER, WITH 1100 MI. ON VEHICLE, DROVE 10 MILES AND CAME TO A STOP. VEHICLE REVVED AT 1500 RPMS WHILE IN DRIVE WITH FOOT ON BRAKE, PUT IN TO NEUTRAL AND IT REVVED TO 5000-6000 RPMS WITH FOOT ON BRAKE. TURNED OFF AND ON, VEHICLE CONTINUED TO REV AT 5000-6000 RPMS WITH FOOT ON BRAKE. TURNED OFF AND ON AGAIN, VEHICLE BACK TO NORMAL. PROBLEM HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN. BROUGHT TO DEALER, DEALER DID BASIC TESTING, COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT DID NOT COME ON, BUT DEALER CHECKED FOR STORED CODES, NOTHING FOUND. DEALER COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SAID VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE. DEALER SUGGESTED FOOT WAS ON GAS PEDAL, OR FLOOR MAT WAS ON GAS PEDAL. HOWEVER, FOOT WAS ON BRAKE, AND FLOOR MAT WAS SECURED TO FLOOR. WE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES WITH A 2001 ODYSSEY, THOUGHT PROBLEM WOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED WITH THIS NEW MODEL. DEALER COULDN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE WITH THE 2001 ODYSSEY EITHER. THE CONSEQUENCE IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS VEHICLE COULD HIT SOMETHING IN FRONT OF IT IF BRAKE IS NOT APPLIED FIRMLY WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A STOP. *TR
