2004 Honda Odyssey Lights Problems

AFTER I BRING MY CAR TO DEALER THEY FIX THE SRS CONTROL UNIT RECALL, THEN THE SRS LIGHT ALWAYS ON THEN THEY TELL ME NEED TO PAY FOR THE PART OPDS UNIT WILL NOT INITIALIZE. WHY I HAVE TO PAY FOR OPDS PART BEFORE MY CAR NEVER HAVE THAT HAPPEN.

WHILE COMING TO A STOP FOR VEHICLES STOPPED AT THE TRAFFIC LIGHT AT THE END OF MY STREET, I REAR-ENDED AN OIL TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME. MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO STOP, CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL AND HIT THE OIL TRUCK. MY VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND MY INJURIES WERE NOT SEVERE. *TR

ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, THE WINDOW ACTUATOR FAILED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, I PAID TO REPAIR THIS. OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS, ANOTHER 4 ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED. ONE OF THEM IS THE LOCK ACTUATOR ON PASSENGER SIDE, SECOND IS THE LOCK ACTUATOR ON LEFT SLIDING DOOR, ANOTHER IS THE WINDOW ACTUATOR ON DRIVER SIDE AND THE ACTUATOR FOR DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK. THE PROBLEMS OF THIS MAGNITUDE ARE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS THE WINDOW ACTUATOR ON DRIVER SIDE SUDDENLY FAILED WHILE DRIVING AND WAS SCARY AS THE WINDOW JUST FELL INTO THE DOOR. THE OTHER ACTUATORS FAILING WITH LOCKS AND DOORS CAN BE A SERIOUS PROBLEMS, ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE WHERE THE WINDOW OR DOOR SUDDENLY OPENS OR CLOSES. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL COMPONENT PROBLEM THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED BY A NATIONAL RECALL. *TR

MY 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY HAS A REPEATED PROBLEM WITH ITS "BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH". THIS TERM CAN BE MISLEADING - IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BRAKES. WHAT HAPPENS IS ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED ON, OR SOMETIMES ALREADY ON, AND YOU ARE ABOUT TO SWITCH GEARS, THE CAR IS IN NO GEAR AT ALL. EVEN THE OWNER'S MANUAL HAS A "FIX" FOR THIS UNDER "SHIFT LOCK RELEASE". THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF IN MY CAR FOR OVER 2 YEARS. I HAVE A HONDA DEALERSHIP CORRECT THIS TO ONLY HAVE IT HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. THE PROBLEM WITH THE "SHIFT LOCKING" IS IT MAY HAPPEN 3 TIMES IN ONE DAY AND THEN NOT HAPPEN FOR 5 DAYS. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE ITEM SO THEY CANNOT FIX IT UNDER WARRANTY FROM THE PREVIOUS TIME. *TR

HONDA ODYSEEY 2004 EX: INTERIOR CABIN LIGHTS FLICKER ON/OFF INTERMITENTLY. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE SERVERAL TIMES, BUT PROBLEM CONTINUES. SEARCHING THE WEB RETURNS SIMILAR RESULTS FOR OTHER OWNERS OF HONDA ODYSSEY REGADLESS OF YEAR. *AK

THE HIGH BEAM HAS A SINGLE HALOGEN LIGHT FOR BOTH SETTINGS. WHEN SWITCHING FROM LOW TO HIGH BEAM THE LIGHT FAILS TO PROJECT FAR AHEAD . THIS REDUCES EXTENDED VISIBILITY AS NEEDED FOR THE HIGH BEAM. DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO MAKE OBSERVATIONS DUE TO BUSINESS HOURS IN ORDER TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *AK WITH A SINGLE HALOGEN BULB, WHEN SWITCHING FROM LOW BEAM TO HIGH BEAM, THE LOW BEAM ELEMENT GOES OUT AND NO LONGER WORKS RESULTING IN A DARK SENSATION AHEAD OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE HIGH BEAM LIGHT IS FURTHER OUT AND IS TOO DISPERSED. HIGH BEAMS ARE UNUSABLE IN THIS CONDITION. (PER TELEPHONE CONVERSATION W/ CONSUMER ON 07/02/04 *MJJ)
