problem #1

Oct 212006

Odyssey 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,629 miles
I'm filing this complaint to report three ongoing problems and one new problem, all related to the rear sliding door latches, locks and handles: 1. the door latch on the rear passenger-side sliding door of our 1999 Honda Odyssey LX becomes loose while the vehicle is in motion, causing the interior lights and rear door-open indicator to flash on intermittently. 2. the rear sliding doors often are extremely difficult to open from the outside. The van has been serviced for these two problems at no cost on three separate occasions by a local Honda dealership (trickett Honda). 3. sometimes the locks on the sliding doors don't engage when the automatic lock button is pushed. 4. the outside door handle on the rear passenger-side sliding door does not retract back into the indented slot and no longer opens the door.
