NHTSA Complaint #11110455 — 2012 HONDA ODYSSEY

I WAS GOING TO PACK THE CAR (STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY) ON SAT JULY 7TH FOR A FAMILY REUNION WHEN I PRESSED THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR BUTTON ON MY KEY FOB. WHILE WALKING TO MY 2012 HONDA ODYSSEY I HEARD THE NOISE OF THE DOOR OPENING BUT THE DOOR REMAINED SHUT. WHILE NEXT TO THE CAR AND WITHOUT TOUCHING THE HANDLE I HIT THE PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR BUTTON AGAIN, AND AGAIN JUST THE NOISE OF THE DOOR OPENING/CLOSING COULD BE HEARD BUT THE ACTUAL DOOR REMAINED SHUT. I LOOKED UP INTO THE TRACK AND DIDN'T SEE THE CABLE, LOOKING CLOSER AT THE CAR I NOTICED THAT THE CABLE WAS ACTUALLY DANGLING DOWN THE EDGE OF THE SLIDING DOOR. THE CABLE HAD SNAPPED OFF. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT DELLA HONDA IN PLATTSBURGH, NY BEING WORKED ON.
