We have classified the 2 complaints from 2011 Honda Odyssey about ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING into the following categories.
I get a major dead spot on attempted acceleration moving from a slowdown (as toward a signal) toward acceleration (as the signal changes) at about 5 -10 mph. this is consistent. i can step hard on the gas or pump the accelerator and get no response for at least 2 seconds. it seems like if you hit the brake, you cannot use the accelerator unless it is fully reset. i am thinking it is a software problem. the injury risk is you hit the accelerator and the car cannot get out of a dangerous situation. *tr
2011 honda odyssey. consumer states problem with vehicle engine concerning oil leak and burning smell *tgw the consumer stated at approximately 6,000 he began to smell an odor of burnt oil when parked with the engine running. the smell was coming through the air vents. the consumer reported it to the dealer, where they found a loose oil filter. within a day, the consumer smelled the burnt oil odor again. the consumer went to another dealer, where they placed uv dye in the engine to help determine the location of the leak. they determined it was caused by an oil drain bolt not being tightened to the manufacturers specifications. soon after the appointment, the smell returned, and the next morning there was a small amount of oil on the garage floor under the engine. the dealer replaced the oil pan, gasket, crankshaft and main bearing bolt. all to no avail. the dealer stated whatever the cause, the smell was from oil leaking onto the hot exhaust pipe. in fact, burnt oil residue was found on multiple places along the exhaust pipe. the consumer stated the vehicle has been to the dealer five times in an attempt to fix the problem. *jb
