WHILE DRIVING ON I-90, THE SUN ROOF EXPLODED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. TEMPERATURE WAS 45 DEGREES. INSIDE SUN ROOF COVER WAS CLOSED SO NO GLASS ENTERED THE INTERIOR. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES AHEAD OF ME. HAD THE COVER BEEN OPENED AND SMALL CHILDREN IN THE MIDDLE SEATS, SERIOUS INJURIES MAY HAVE OCCURRED. I SUGGEST THAT A SAFETY NOTICE BE ISSUED STATING THAT WHEN THE MIDDLE AND BACK ROW OF SEATS ARE OCCUPIED THEN THE SUN ROOF COVER BE CLOSED. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURING FLAW AS THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER INSTANCES OF THE SAME PROBLEMS AND MOST ARE DIRECTED TOWARDS THE 2005 MODEL ODYSSEY VAN. IN ADDITION A SAFETY RECALL MAY BE IN ORDER. I FEEL STRONGLY THAT THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE INFORMED.

A WHILE BACK I FOUND A LOOSE BOLT IN THE DRIVERS SIDE SLIDING DOOR AND ANOTHER BOLT THAT WAS NOT TIGHTENED AT THE FACTORY. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS REPRESENTS A SERIOUS QUALITY CONTROL BREAKDOWN. WHILE MY PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED, SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS OTHER ISSUES AND IN THE PROCESS OF FILING A LEMON LAW COMPLAINT AS A RESULT OF REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO FIX MY VEHICLE. MY CONCERN IS ALSO THAT MY DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY HAVE FOUND SIX OTHER VEHICLES WITH LOOSE BOLTS IN THE CAR. IF SOMEONE IS IN A POSITION TO DO THIS, WHAT ELSE WOULD THIS PERSON POTENTIALLY HAVE DONE TO THIS VEHICLE AND OTHERS. THIS MAKES ME WONDER IF SOMEONE AT THE FACTORY WAS DOING THIS AS A JOKE OR IF THERE ARE OTHER POTENTIAL SAFETY...

I PURCHASED A 2005 HONDA ODESSEY. I REQUESTED A MOON ROOF AS A HONDA OPTION. I WAS NOT TOLD THAT THIS WAS NOT AN OPTION ON THE MODEL THAT I HAD SELECTED. I WAS GIVEN AN AFTER MARKET MOON ROOF. I WENT BACK TO THE DEALER TO HAVE AN OVER HEAD DVD PLAYER INSTALLED AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE MAIN OVERHEAD BEAM WAS CUT TO INSTALL THE MOON ROOF AND THAT WHAT WAS LEFT OF THE BEAM WAS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THE DVD PLAYER. I BEGAN TO QUESTION THE QUALITY OF WORK THAT WAS DONE TO INSTALL THE MOON ROOF AND I WAS THEN TOLD IT WAS AFTER MARKET. I ASKED THE DEALER AND HONDA TO CERTIFY THAT THE INSTALLATION WAS SAFE. THEY BOTH REFUSED. I HAVE SINCE EXPLAINED MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE ESPECIALLY IN TURN OVER SITUATIONS. HONDA AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS...
