Unintentional acceleration for my 2008 Honda Odyssey.

- Hilton Head Island, SC, USA

Accelerator sticks on when applying brakes.

- Wilsonville, OR, USA

While stopped at a light my 2008 Honda Odyssey's engine began accelerating with the RPM indicator exceeding 7000 rpms. I had to stand on the brake and shift into park to avoid any further movement. As the engine was still racing I turned the ignition off. I restarted the car in park and the engine again accelerated past 7000 rpms. Once again I shut the engine off, waited a while longer and restarted without incident. The car has under 16,000 miles and just prior to the incident was driven on the highway but had traveled about 4 miles from the exit point. Cruise was on but not engaged since leaving the highway.

I own a 2008 Honda Odyssey purchased in 2009. A couple of months after we purchased the brand new mini van, the accelerator /throttle stuck as I was driving my children to school, ( the throttle kicked on somewhere between 30 & 40 mph). The brakes were not slowing us down much at all as the engine raced ( foot was off the gas pedal) and we nearly crashed in the elementary school parking lot. ( I put the van in neutral and turned off the engine along with the emergency brake to get us to stop.) we towed the car to Honda & they had it for four days. I did not want it back ! Honda said they could not reproduce the problem and that the computer sensors didn't track the disturbance. We ended up paying out of our own pocket for a completely new computer system to be installed. ( we have the old computer part.) we reported this to Honda. I am writing to tell you about this because Toyota is not the only car with an acceleration problem ! our Honda dealer swept it under the rug but I am sure there has to be other Honda owners who have had the life threatening same issue.
