Consumer Description

We bought this van new and twice since owning it-once in 2019 at 5,418 miles and this month (November 2025) at 136,947 miles-we have been driving down the interstate with a van full of people, when without any previous warning, suddenly multiple warning lights come on all at once (the check engine light, the transmission light, the vehicle stability assist light, among others-what I have been told in LIMP mode) and the van becomes difficult to drive. The engine revs and the multiple warnings keep flashing. It has been extremely dangerous to be going at interstate speeds and suddenly thrown into a driving status where our speed is crippled to a slow pace and trying to get to an exit or shoulder without causing an accident. We have had to have the van towed both times in order to get it to a dealer to have it looked at and fixed. Both times we have been told by 2 different Honda dealership service departments that it was the rocker arm oil pressure switch and the most recent time (2025) we were told they had to also replace the rear spool valve to make the error codes go away. The code P2652 was a code that had to be cleared both times with the repairs that they made. In Nov. 2025 the dealer scanned the vehicle and found codes p0301, p0302, p0303, p0306 cylinder 1 2 3 and 6 misfires. They found code p2652 rocker arm pressure switch to be stuck on. They checked the circuit and found the wiring to be ok. They replaced the rocker arm pressure switch and rear of cylinder head problem did not change. Oil levels were where they should have been. They removed the rear rocker bridge and rear spool valve to inspect the rear spool valve and found the rear spool valve to be sticking causing the vehicle to be in constant vps. They installed a new rear spool valve and cleared codes. We do not have the components to be inspected.
