NHTSA Complaint #10425703 — 2007 HONDA ODYSSEY

DERA SIR: WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE (HONDA ODYSSEY, 2007) IN MAY 2007 IN MICHIGAN. SINCE LAST 18 MONTHS, WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. ONE ISSUE WAS POWER STEERING (NOT ABLE TO MANEUVERING), I WENT TO HONDA. THEY CHANGED THE POWER STEERING UNIT TWICE IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS (I PURCHASED EXTENEDE WARRANTY, OTHERWISE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AN EXPENSIVE THING FOR ME). AGAIN, I HAD SAME ISSUE THIS WEEK, THEN I WENT TO HONDA. THEY MENTIONED "RIGHT SIDE INNER AND OUTER TIE RODS LOOSE AND WERE COMPLETELY WORN OUT". THEY DID MENTIIONED TO ME THAT IT IS DANGAEROUS TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THEY KEPT MY VEHICLE OVERNIGHT AND INSTALLED A NEW PART. I BELIEVE THERE IS SERIOUS FLAWS IN THE DESIGN OF THIS PARTICLE YEAR MODEL. TODAY I AM EXPERIENCEING DIFFERENT PROBLEM, SHAKING ENGINE AT 40 MPH. THEY DID UPDATE THE SOFTWARE BUT STILL THERE IS PROBLEM IN THIS VEHICLE. I APRECIATE IF NHA WOULD TAKE A LOOK INTO THIS MATTER. I ALMOST SPENT MORE THAN $10000 ON THIS VEHICLE AND I REALIZED I BOUGHT A PIECE OF JUNK FROM HONDA WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A RELIABLE MAKER.
