NHTSA Complaint #11571611 — 2019 HONDA ODYSSEY

The transmission slips or doesn't engage appropriately. The van lurches forward at intersections and slips, pauses with a loud clunking noise at lower gears when driving in town. This morning, I attempted to cross a double highway...pressed the accelerator, nothing happened, then the vehicle lurched forward, stopped again, then lurched forward again all with the accelerator pressed down. I was almost hit broadside while crossing the highway. This is not the first time this has occurred. Multiple people in our household drive this vehicle and all have reported the same concern. I've asked about this every time I get routine maintenance but Honda dealership says it's working as designed and they've witnessed this issue in other customer reports. This is a significant safety risk!
