| Vehicle creates vibration as if traveling over washboard surface on otherwise smooth roadway when accelerating at low gradual speeds. vibration disappears after accelerating through harmonics or decelerating. engine mounts (3) worn out prematurely. suspect poor design. excessive engine movement caused the front passenger engine mount mounting bolt (2 x m10 x 40mm) to shear & second bolt was stretched and yielded such that the washer face of the bolt was raised 1/4 from the mounting surface rendering the top mount useless. the rear mount seems to be the major culprit. it is hardest to see visually & appears the 1st to fail causing excessive strain & failure on 2 remaining mounts. potential safety concern. reference complaint no. 10425453 | |||

| My 2002 honda odyssey's engine has shut off while i am driving 2x in the last 3 weeks. the first time was during a right hand turn at a light. the second time was as i was about to turn at a light. there was no warning to the engine failure. the engine just shut off and all of the dashboard lights came on. i am afraid that this could happen in traffic or on the freeway with terrible consequences. i immediately took the car to the dealer after the 2nd incident and they couldn't replicate it. i don't know how they thought that it would just happen on cue now after occurring for me 3 weeks apart. they returned the car to me with no help. also 3 weeks ago, i smelled a burning rubber smell in the cabin. they said this was something rattling in the ac and replaced the cabin filter. i personally feel that this problem may have led to the stalling issue-a short or something. i have read several other people complaining of the same engine failure issue on and edmunds.com website. *nm | |||

| 1. started engine, back the car out of parking spot, drove at approximately 5 mph for less than 1 min., all the indicator lights were on and the van stalled all of sudden. i tried to pull off from the road, but the most dangerous thing was the steering wheel is locked, i cannot turn right or left, i almost hit an another car. i stepped on the brake immediately and stopped the van. i shifted the gear to p mode, and shut down the engine. i restarted the engine 3 times. the same thing happened. all the indicator lights were on and did not turn off by itself. it did not return to normal until i restarted it for one more time. i drove at slow speed for couples of second and stopped at traffic light. i felt the engine revolute high and down continuously again for approximate 1 min. same thing happened again for 3 times in the past 3 weeks. 2. i realize the engine sometimes revolute high and down continuously for approximate 1 min. when i stop at traffic light or stop sign by the time my car drove about 5,000 miles. i need to step the accelerate pedal more harder than usual in order to move the car. this occurs much more frequent recently. (my car driven a total of approximate 10,500 miles now). i took it to the dealer, but they could not find anything wrong because they could not duplicate the problem. *la | |||

| I was picking up the vehicle after the local dealer completed the recall to replace the timing belt tensioner. i accelerated to merge with traffic and the check engine light and tcs light came on. i immediately returned to the dealer to have the car checked out. the next day the service advisor called to tell me the reason the lights came on was because of high oil pressure. they said the oil filter may be clogged and they recommended that i have the engine oil and filter changed, which i did, but i am not convinced that is the cause of the problem. i change the oil and filter regularly when the indicator flashes on the dash board. the light came on when the engine rpm was about 4500 to 5000. *la | |||
