NHTSA Complaint #11306990 — 2013 HONDA ODYSSEY

TODAY I FOUND OUT THAT MY PISTONS WERE BAD IN MY 2013 ODYSSEY. I HAD JUST HAD MY POINTS, PLUGS AND WIRES CHANGED OUT IN LATE NOVEMBER EARLY DECEMBER. I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THE ODYSSEYS. I HAD TAKEN MY VAN TO AUTO ZONE TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED AND IT SAID CODE P0302 INDICATES THAT CYLINDER 2 HAD TO MANY MISFIRES SAME CODE THAT IS IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT ON THE LIST TO SERVE. WOW. I ASKED WHY AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATED BECAUSE THAT NO ONE HAD COMPLAINED WITH THAT VIN NUMBER. WELL IF YOU ASK ME THE VIN NUMBER IS DIFFERENT FOR EACH CAR, OR AM I WRONG?? HOW WOULD I COMPLAIN IF THE PROBLEM HAD NOT STARTED AS OF YET? KNOWING THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE 2013 ODYSSEY VANS. IT SHOULD INCLUDE THE ONES THAT YOU BUILT FOR THAT YEAR. NOT JUST THE ONES YOU HAD COMPLAINTS ON. IT IS IRONIC THAT THE SAME ISSUE IS OCCURRING IN MY VAN. WHEN THE TECH CALLED ME THIS MORNING HE MENTIONED 3 DIFFERENT CYLINDERS THAT WERE MISFIRING. IF THIS WAS A PROBLEM SHOULDN'T PROCESSES BEEN PUT IN PLACE TO CHECK THE PISTONS REGARDLESS IF THERE IS AN ISSUE TO MAKE SURE THIS IS NOT PROBLEM IN THAT PARTICULAR VEHICLE. I NOW AM PAYING FOR NOT ONLY ALL OF THE PISTONS SEALS TO BE REPLACED BUT ALSO ANOTHER POINTS, PLUGS, AND WIRE REPLACEMENT THAT IS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OLD. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HONDA RIGHT NOW. IF YOU HAD ASKED ME LAST WEEK WHAT MY NEXT CAR WOULD BE I WOULD HAVE SAID ANOTHER HONDA BUT AFTER TODAY NOT SO SURE ON THAT.
