Consumer Description
ON THE US 2018 HONDA ODYSSEY MODEL, THERE IS NO LOW WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID WARNING. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS I FOUND THIS OUT ON A SLOPPY, SALTY WISCONSIN INTERSTATE NEXT TO A SEMI WITH MY WIFE AND KIDS IN THE VEHICLE. SALT ON A WINDSHIELD GIVES YOU ZERO VISIBILITY WITHOUT WASHER FLUID, AND LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE AND MAKE IT TO A GAS STATION TO FILL WITH WASHER FLUID WITHOUT INCIDENT. MY 2000 EXPLORER AND 2010 RAV4 HAVE LOW WASHER FLUID WARNING LIGHTS. WITH THE 1000S OF DOLLARS OF ACTIVE AND PASSIVE SAFETY FEATURES BUILT INTO THE ODYSSEY, CONSUMERS EXPECT THE INEXPENSIVE SIMPLE THINGS LIKE A LOW WASHER FLUID WARNING. THIS SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO RECALL.
