Workmanship by honda service and repair caused consequential damage to my odyssey 2016 car, with less than 32k miles for now. vehicle was timely serviced /repaired by fiesta honda 6 times in less than 1.7 years. registered a case with american honda to offer complete repair, extended bumper to bumper warranty and out of the pocket expenses. american honda and fiesta honda refused to take care of the extended warranty and out of the pocket expenses and they have covered up the case and their mistakes, through just blame game. per david honda frisco, who checked the vehicle initially -"'cylinder block assembly: p3400/p3497 valve pause stuck off. checked for low oil and oil level was over full. also found burnt oil/sludge stuck all over dip stick. removed valve covers and rear spool valve assembly and found oil passage in spool. assembly clogged due to negligence. oil is very dirty due to oil not being changed consistently .' , when the engine light on may last week, i brought it to david honda frisco, from frisco, fiesta honda honda towed the vehicle to san antonio and manipulated the case by american honda and fiesta honda. american honda case manager was very rude and arrogant handling the case. american honda and fiesta honda is not explaining what they have done to the vehicle, they just say ready to pick up. probably a miracle happened to this vehicle, how can we trust this vehicle, fiesta honda and american honda.

Hi, i believe that there are two defects for odyssey 2016 1. low gas warning indicator is too hard to get noticed 2. no audible noise when running low on gas. it is very dangerous that if running out of gas on the road. suddenly lose of power is very dangerous, very easy to get the car crash on the road. and it happened to me today. thanks god, it happened when i'm on a local road not the free way. but i hope it never happened again to all other odyssey owner in the future. that's the reason i filed this case. fuel level meter/low gas indicator is on the right bottom of the instrument board. but the light is mostly blocked by the wheel with the way i sit so i hardly ever tell when i'm running on empty. (see the attached picture). and there is no audible noise when your running low on gas. there is no way that the driver can get warning is he already on the way to danger. i know the driver should check the gas before moving the vehicle. but all the car i drove before have sound alarm/beep to remind me every time when i move the car, and also the low fuel warning light is in the center of the board. it very easy to get the notice of the situation of low gas. but odyssey 2016 placed the gas indicate in the place that hardly to see. even vehicles in the 80s had that feature. don't know why even vehicles in 2016 lose this very important safety related feature.
