NHTSA Complaint #11054165 — 2005 HONDA ODYSSEY

PURCHASED MY VAN USED IN 2012. IT HAD A STEERING ISSUE BUT I WAS NEW TO THE FEEL OF HONDA HANDLING AND THOUGHT IT WAS OK AND NORMAL. I HAVE HAD INCREASING ISSUES WITH MY CAPABILITY TO STEER. THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING PUMP AND RESERVOIR BUT THE PREVIOUS OWNER OF MY VAN DID NOT HAVE IT SERVICED. I CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID IT IS PASSED WARRANTY AND CANNOT ABSORB THE COST OF THE REPAIR. I SAY, THAT SINCE THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER FIXED WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, IT SHOULD BE FIXED NOW BECAUSE HONDA NEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM WHILE THE TIME FRAME STILL OBLIGATED THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM HAVING DIFFICULTY STEERING MY VAN, TURNING THE VAN, WITH CHILDREN IN IT, AND SO THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS ATTENTION BECAUSE IT WAS NOT ADDRESSED AND FIXED WHEN HONDA SHOULD HAVE FIXED IT.
