problem #5

Jun 192003

Odyssey 6-cyl

  • 65,332 miles
Got into my car one morning and noticed that my seat was completely reclined. Used the power switch to bring it back up, but when I sat back on it, it ratched back into the recline position.

problem #4

Jan 272009

Odyssey

  • 120,000 miles
Normal use of the car drivers electrical seat adjustment platform failed so the the seat was very loose and rocking. Felt like seat would come loose in an accident. Consequences could be very serious. Certainly violating the safety rating which Honda advertises. The car has never to my knowledge, been wrecked. It first failed in Dec. 2008 and was repaired by welding, which failed Jan. 27, 2009. The entire adjustment frame was replaced at a cost of $1200. I have the old part for you or Honda to inspect, if you wish.
