NHTSA Complaint #10425909 — 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY

I OWN 04 HONDA ODYSSEY AND FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL FOR MULTIPLE 2003-2004 HONDA MODELS. YOU CAN REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY WITHOUT SHIFTING TO PARK. THE VAN STARTED ROLLING, I WAS PUSHED BY IT AND INJURED MY KNEE AS I WAS TRYING TO GET IN AND STOP THE CAR. THE CAR HIT THE RAILS RESULTING IN MINOR DAMAGE. I TESTED THIS PROBLEM AND IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, YOU CAN REMOVE THE KEY WITHOUT ANY EFFORT WHILE THE CAR IS STILL IN DRIVE. WHY HONDA ODYSSEY IS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL ISSUED FOR HONDA ELEMENT AND FEW OTHER HONDA MODELS? HANDA ODYSSEY 2004 HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED HERE: HTTP://AUTOS.AOL.COM/CARS-HONDA-ELEMENT-2004/RECALLS/ SUMMARY: HONDA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2003 HONDA ACCORD, CIVIC TWO AND FOUR DOOR, AND MODEL YEAR 2003-2004 HONDA ELEMENT VEHICLES. THE INTERLOCK LEVER OF THE IGNITION SWITCH MAY UNEXPECTEDLY DEFORM, WHICH CAN ALLOW THE INTERLOCK FUNCTION OF A VEHICLE WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION TO BE DEFEATED. CONSEQUENCES: REMOVAL OF THE IGNITION KEY WHEN THE GEAR SELECTOR OF A VEHICLE WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS NOT BEEN SHIFTED TO THE PARK POSITION CAN ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO ROLL AWAY, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. REMEDY: DEALERS WILL REMOVE THE ORIGINAL INTERLOCK PIN AND LEVER WITHIN THE IGNITION SWITCH, AND REPLACE THEM WITH NEW, DESIGNED COMPONENTS. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 7, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM, I DRIVE KIDS AND MY DISABLED MOTHER IN MY VAN, SOMEONE CAN GET INJURED. I HAVE TWO MORE OLDER HONDA CRV CARS AND THEY DON"T HAVE THIS PROBLEM, ONLY HONDA ODYSSEY HAS THIS ISSUE. *TT
