Driving on I270 South towards 33 East at 65 mph with 4 teenagers and 1 8 week old baby in my 2000 Honda Odyssey and the rear sliding passenger door flies open on its own. My 6 year old daughter was sitting in the seat next to the door when it flew open. It scared her half to death as she was staring at the pavement going by at 65 mph. The door wasn't even on. I turn them off because I am afraid of them opening when they shouldn't after hearing all the stories about these doors. It's a good thing my daughter had her seatbelt on and sitting in her seat or this could have been very tragic. No one died this time. Why will Honda not see there is a serious safety issue here. The latch has been replaced numerous times and yet it is still failing to the point the door will not stay shut on it's own. Something must be done before someone dies here!!!

Right sliding door fails to open. Would allow manual opening on several occasion then the door latched into locked position and wouldn't open even manually. Taken to dealer service center. That worked on it half a day to find that they really didn't know what was wrong and can't determine the problem. No remedy. Took to a Honda/Acura shop to have looked at. Same outcome. Said everything looks to be in working order however they couldn't determine why door was not opening and could not get the door opened. Claw that hooks to latch will not release. Dealer service center suggested cutting the latch with plasma cutters in order to get the door open, however they could not determine if the would be able to fix the problem even then. We can't find anyone who can fix the door. We are in a safety dilemma as our 2 year olds car seats sits on this side of the door. Should there be an emergency we would not be able to exit the vehicle fast enough to get all three children out due to the door not working. Can anyone provide a solution"???"

My 2000 LX Honda Odyssey have a problem with the sliding doors leading them to get stuck and we are not able to open them. We live in fl and there are different temperature through the year and this will happen all year round. After talking to the dealer and extensive research we realize that we are not the only ones with this problem. I think that Honda should take a look at these models and acknowledge that they are faulty. Thanks!

- Wildwood, MO, USA

Honda Odyssey 2000. Some manufacturing defect has caused the rear motorized sliding door to fail on the driver's side. The door will not close securely. If the door handle, outside or inside was pulled or bumped the door came unlatched but will not open or close, whether the vehiclewas in park or not. The door open light did not illuminate so the driver was unaware that children riding in the back were at risk.

- Searcy, AR, USA

2000 Honda odyessy. Sliding door(s) will not totally close sometimes, or will appear closed. Will be turning a corner and the door alarm will go off and door will click like coming ajar. With children in the car, it could be dangerous. Have to stop and open door all the way and then reclose, then lock and most of the time will help, not always. Have taken to Honda dealer and after $600 repair it lasted a two weeks before it started to it again.

- Portland, OR, USA

2000 Honda Odyssey with automatic sliding doors that malfunction. The door does not close all the way. The door is not flush with the side (rear) panel. There is about a 3/8 inch gap between the rear panel and the back of the door. I am concerned that the door might not protect the occupants because it is not secure. Will the door fly off during an impact? I have had to turn off the power to the doors so that it operates manually. However, it is very difficult to open and close - my wife and fours kids, including my 15 year old son cannot open or close the door manually. I am concerned about exiting the vehicle in an emergency. The kids may be in a situation where they are trapped. It also would become a problem if we had to enter the vehicle quickly and were not able to do so.

Sliding door on year 2000 Honda mini van jams partially closed. Released after car goes over several bumps in road, allowing door to slam shut similar to guillotine. Van taken in for repair, Honda service personnel familiar with problem: Defective plastic bearing on door. Plastic bearing probably failed in part due to jamming of door's seals (which have a Honda service campaign).

Honda Odyssey 2000 sliding door doesn't open or close it is stuck - but it is open enough to have the alarm sounding if you are not in park. I am worried for my children's safety - what if the door decides to fly open in the middle of driving. I feel this vehicle is unsafe and want to know if there is a recall. Looking online there are many complaints of this problem.
