The 1998 Honda Odyssey recall for ignition switch I don't believe included all VIN numbers affected. My van is having the exact issue for what is stated in the recall, yet my VIN does not show as a recall. When the switch is turned to the run position, the dash lights may or may not illuminate. Once the van is started, there is a 50/50 chance that the stops running because of the switch. I believe this is an issue that needs to be looked into. Has not been confirmed yet because we are awaiting service on the airbag recall to put the van into service.

The contact owns a 1998 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated when the vehicle is in neutral the key can be removed from the ignition. If the key is removed, the engine will stall without warning, increasing the risk of a crash. There is a recall for the 1999 model regarding the electrical system:ignition:switch, but not on the 1998 models. The contact feels a recall should be issued on the 1998 models as well. Failure mileage was 160,000. Updated 02/13/10 the consumer stated the fact that the key can be removed when in a gear selector position other than park specifically in neutral which happened to the consumer when the engine was off already is definitely a failure.

Upon applying the brakes a growling and a thumping sound seems to be coming from the wheels; sounds like an impact is occurring underneath the vehicle. Causes vehicle to shimmy.
