Complaint Summary

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

Owner Narrative

I LEASED MY 2014 ODYSSEY ON JUNE 2014. I'M COMPLAINING ABOUT ITS JERKING, THOSE LOUD CLUNK DURING SHIFT TO 1ST TO 2ND GEAR STARTED YESTERDAY EVENING WHEN I DROVE HOME WITH MY WIFE FROM AIRPORT IN STOP AND DRIVE TRAFFIC. THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION CONTINUED TO DO THIS EVERY TIME I TRIED TO ACCELERATE BETWEEN 10-20 MILES PER HOUR. IT CONTINUED TO JERK AND CLUNK FOR 10 MILES AS I DROVE ON THE FREEWAY. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND MADE OUR HEARTS BEAT AS IT FELT LIKE THE ENGINE WAS GOING TO FALL OUT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER NEXT DAY MORNING AND THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR AS NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES CAME UP. THEY CANNOT GET THE CAR TO DUPLICATE ISSUE NOW. I HAVE TO BRING THE CAR TO THEM AS SOON AS THE PROBLEM OCCUR. THEY ONLY DID SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR ME AT THAT TIME, HOPE IT WILL HELP. FOR ONE YEAR OLD 12000 MILEAGE CAR, I THINK THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. THE REASON I CHOSEN HONDA ODYSSEY WAS ITS SAFETY RATE. NOW I FELT UNSAFE IN THIS CAR, ESPECIALLY WITH MY TWO KIDS. I STARTED LOOKING ONLINE AND I SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS ISSUE NOW! HOPING NHTSA HELP US PUSHING HONDA TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE TERRIBLE THINGS HAPPEN.
