Passenger side tailgate hinge garnish was cracked. Dealer of purchase noted it on delivery. Repair dealer replaced part, scratching new part in the process.

Image cannot be displayed." Problem rectifies itself after the car is turned off for 10-15 minutes. No known fix available. Dealer could not replicate because they didn't have a DVD to try. Dealer of purchase suggested waiting until the next software update in January (four months away).

Oct 2011 5000 mi	Photo sensor for the auto headlights (also inputs to the auto climate control) is far too sensitive - only turns lights off when dashboard is in direct sunlight - technician said he couldn't replicate but I demonstrated for service manager.
Dec 2011 7000 mi	Nav screen randomly goes crazy - only way to reset is to turn off vehicle and restart. Honda TSB 11-022 covers replacing the screen, although despite me asking, the dealer did not have the part in stock and has to special order. Replace photo sensor Dealer said our vehicle needed TSB 11-073 applied to it - reflash battery sensor software.

Nov 2013 24000 mi	Broken key - replaced under TSB A13-100 Creaking front suspension is back again - dealer opted to order new front right strut instead of lube (TSB 11-038) - new strut has new part number (A04)

May 2014 28700 mi	Tailgate was rusting on the bottom edge. Repainted entire bottom half of tailgate and replaced bolts holding on trim (which were the cause of the corrosion per Honda notice). Creaking sound from steering at parking lot speeds. Duplicated with tech in the car. Determined the sound was coming from lightly pressing the brakes with the car rolling, not the strut or steering rack - so no repair needed.

Oct 2015 40200 mi US $68	Water leaking into drivers side headliner from clogged sunroof drain, also soaking the floor (presumably from the dripping headliner).

Worked fine when picked up but problem still exists occasionally (just when using handle, as opposed to button).
Sep 2017 55965 mi US $145	Sliding door has been jamming occasionally for a while, getting worse over time. Tech discovered two problems - a bottlecap wedged behind one of the latches in the door frame, and chocolate melted around one of the door latches (these are on the bottom of the door). He removed the debris, lubed with white lithium grease, but there is still a little chocolate inside the latch so I will need to take a hair dryer to melt all the chocolate and restore full functionality.
Feb 2018 59000 mi US $10	The key blade fixed to the body of the remote broke off; repair requires new key body. Asked dealer to replace key under Honda TSB 13-100, as key broke exactly as detailed in TSB, using HondaCare extended warranty. HondaCare denied claim, saying the key was "mechanical failure", not electrical, which would have been covered by warranty. Despite the fact that the TSB specifically describes the failure as an engineering defect and the HondaCare terms do not exclude the key (the HondaCare rep asserted that "keys have never been covered under this warranty"). Honda customer service declined to cover the repair too. After arguing with HondaCare again about the specific terms in the warranty agreement, HondaCare covered most of the cost of the repair.

Jun 2022 88000 mi US $300	Alternator starting whining loudly. Within two short trips, battery charge light came on. Local shop would not source Denso (Honda OEM) and dealer wanted over $1000 for the replacement. Bought a Denso factory rebuild alt directly (not listed in rockauto catalog but is if you search the model number itself). Youtube to the rescue, did it myself in the driveway. Pretty tight to do it from above but doable.

Dealer wanted to charge more, considering problem to be a "different problem". The tailgate pinch sensor has broken wires. Decided to live with tailgate problem indicator light until a new pinch sensor is found. This is not a part readily found, will get one from a salvage yard. Dealer wants to replace the fuse box, costing over $1500 Deemed not worthwhile as we spent already $600 with no improvement to original problem and no guarantee that this repair would fix it. Gave up on them fixing the alarm issue. Trying to get them to at least fix the sliding doors that do not work right after 1st repair. To keep the alarm from going off I ended up disconnecting the hood latch sensor so that the alarm will never arm itself. No parts replaced, cost too high Alarm going off randomly. Seems to coincide with rainy days Disabled the car alarm by disconnecting the hood open sensor. Been fine ever since.

Dec 2013 45880 mi $500	based on dealer recommendation after inspection, changed all spark plugs prematurely in order to resolve strange vibration. No solution to vibration after spark plug change. Vibration getting much worse, but a local mechanic could not find the problem, but verifies it is the transmission. Took minivan back to dealer to review again the vibration in transmission. They stated that nothing could be done as per HondaÂ´s dealer procedures in Mexico, other than changing the transmission. Battery failed before 40,000 kms with the previous battery. Changed by myself. Door opening mechanism failed and caused door to bend towards the body of the car and scratch it.

"Extra" noises from transmission when shifting from N to R, but also from N to D. Occasionally, a"snapping" sound will also occure. More on the 'tapping' which occurs under load when slowing down, as for a large speed bump. Service Dep't. rep heard it, said it is normal ("Hard valve lifters"). Click / clunk in Steering Column: Dealer replaced the required parts, per TSB. Problems seems solved. More on the "Humming/growling under load @ 2100 RPM" problem: Dealer installed a new "A" pipe (coming from exhaust manifold); was substantially more quiet for a few days, but the noise is returning. Haven't been back to show dealer, yet.

Jan 2012 73500 mi US $40	Center roller went bad in driver side rear door. Jerky opening and closing, very hard to close once open. Had to pull door out from body with hand while letting motor close it or door would hit the side of the car.
Mar 2012 96000 mi US $45	Replaced roller in other sliding door. Bought the new part and swapped it out. Dealer quote was $275. Car began running very rough. Engine light came on. I got to the dealership and they changed the oil - said it was very low even though indicator said 50% life remaining. Charged me $128 to turn off the engine light.
Apr 2012 97000 mi	Car started running rough again. Skipped the dealer and got Jiffy Lube to change the oil. It was low again even though oil life was 50%. Engine light reset itself once the oil was changed. Can't see a leak. Must be burning oil?
Oct 2014 148500 mi US $1500	REPLACE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BEARING
May 2015 156000 mi US $110	Starter went bad all at once. Starter tested ok once. Tested again (after trying everything else) and it failed. Got a refurb starter and all is ok. Seemed require removing at least 27 hard to reach bolts. A royal pain.
Sep 2015 165000 mi	A/C intermittent. At first, driver side was heat, passenger was cold air. Lubing cables under the dash helped. But now compressor just isn't coming on, some days worse than others. Perfectly cold when it is on. Thermostat? Cables?
Mar 2016 172000 mi US $80	Replaced sliding door rollers again, both sides.
Dec 2016 186000 mi	Lost rear wiper, sliding door, AC, turn signals and more. Checked fuses. Tried swapping fuses around, could get some things working but then radio would turn off. Total mystery. Pulled lots of inside body panels off to check wiring. Noticed water leaking in through the airbag label on the column to the left of windshield. Cranked up heat to max, turned on defrost, and let it run in the driveway for an hour. Once everything dried out, all started working again. Only leaks in extended rainstorms, unclear location. Leak not fixed.
Jul 2017 189000 mi US $35	Door motor made noise but wouldn't engage, but was different than worn roller problem that recurs. Replaced door lock actuator with part DLA-388, easily ordered from Amazon. Took apart the old one and saw that the little teeth had broken off inside.
Nov 2017 196000 mi US $100	Engine began running rough at idle and died in the driveway when warming up. Would not start again. Tried gas treatment. Got it started and had the code read - random misfire, all cylinders. Changed all spark plugs. One was black, and one looked like the cylinder was running lean. Still a little rough at idle. Odd noises when turning off car (vacuum noise and a clunk). Tried changing out ignition coils, but it made no difference, so I put back the old ones. Finally, the engine light went out a week later, and it is running ok. Maybe spark plugs plus bad gas?
Apr 2018 202000 mi US $85	Replaced rear shocks with KYB Excel-G ordered from Amazon. $85. Easy swap. Greatly improved handling where rear end felt like it was swaying all over the interstate on bumpy construction areas.
May 2018 204000 mi US $45	Replaced roller in passenger side sliding door. This has to be done every couple of years at least. Easy to do though.
Aug 2018 210000 mi US $600	Front left wheel bearing. Front axle. Was having excessive noise and wobble. Replaced all motor mounts and transmission mount, trying to stop vibration. Some mounts didn't look too bad when we pulled them out, but others had fallen apart. Replaced all since we had it apart anyway.

Nov 2016 164740 mi C $250	Check engine light came on. Turns out that it was a oxygen sensor. Had it replaced and the check engine light went away.rnrnIt was since returned though so I need to get it looked at again. It seems there are 4 oxygen sensors in the van.
Feb 2017 168640 mi C $900	The check engine light came on again! The VCM stopped working as a result. Traced the issue to a faulty catalytic converter. Had to bite the bullet on this expensive repair. Went with an aftermarket catalytic converter to save some cash. Both side sliding doors refused to close and lock after running the car through a carwash in freezing weather.

The right rear brake caliper was sticking causing the brake pad to wear faster than the left so that was serviced and new brake pads installed.
Dec 2017 177940 mi	The right sliding door refused to close in the cold weather we are experiencing. After repeated attempts to slam it shut, the door came off the track. We had to drive home with the door half hanging out. The repair shop put it back but we cannot open that door anymore until a permanent repair is done. The shop mentioned that this is a very common problem on the Odyssey. Given that this is a 12 year old vehicle, I am looking for a used door. Another issue we have experienced lately is the blue factory paint is coming off in chunks...
Sep 2018 191580 mi	Transmission died while on the highway. Had it towed to a repair shop and the transmission was rebuilt. I had the timing belt and water pump changed at the same time.

Over time, this seems to either freeze up the oil rings on the piston, or cause excessive wear on cylinder walls -- both cause oil consumption.
