Recently reported FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM problems on 2018 Honda Odyssey

All my alerts came on when i started my vehicle this morning. a few weeks ago, the emission light came on - honda told me to come back if it doesn't turn off in a week. thought gas tank/new gas issue. then all alerts came on today. honda diagnosed as a issue with fuel injectors. out of warranty. $2,500.

Entire dash turned off while driving including speedometer and information screen-replaced radiohead. all warning lights came on while driving-replaced fuel injectors. popcorn sound and warning light came on while driving after picking up car from getting fuel injectors replaced-stating it's a bad rear entertainment system. i bought my car 1 year ago and it's obviously flawed.

2018 honda odyssey was purchased 3/16/2018 at west honda dealership located in las vegas. not long after purchase, strong fuel, and similar chemical odor appeared, odor came out of the air vents directly. the odor is so strong that the vehicle would smell chemical and smoky for days. odor always appeared during driving, the level of strongness caused nausea, cough, and headache. addressed the issue to 2 different dealerships, with the mention of health concern and fire risk during driving. both dealerships' service advisors verified the issue verbally, did diagnosis in 3 out of 4 total visits. could not find the issue while odor presenting in the car; thus, no repair was done to fix the issue. reports are collected, filed a complaint to the headquarter. case manager admitted there is something wrong with the vehicle as similar cases with the same type of vehicle are heard from the same area. being told that no inspection can be done without odor appears again and ignored the previous visits' results.

While traveling on city streets for 2 hours and 1 hour high way driving, during the middle part of the day for two days straight 6/21/18 and 6/22/18, the inside cabin of the van filled with a very strong smell of gaseous fumes. the overwhelming fumes lasted for approximately 3 hours on both days. also leaving fumes in the car overnight which were detected as we entered the car the next day around 9:30 a.m. i took the car to honda auto nation in las vegas at 10:45 am. on 6/23/18. after two hours they notified me that there were no problems with the car. i was adamant in refusing to believe that there was not a problem and that my families life was not in danger. i was taken to two of the dealership's managers and was told by them that this is normal for the inside of the car to fill up with fumes on hot days and that i would just have to deal with it since the car filters the fumes to the front engine and then into the vehicles cabin. they told me that it was a government regulation that fumes not be transmitted to the environment but rather to the inside of the car, but first through filters. i have never experienced this before in my 30 years of driving new vehicles. i have just recently viewed information over the internet that there is a honda crv lawsuit for their 2015-2017 vehicles pertaining specifically to gaseous fumes from gasoline. i am terrified to use this vehicle. not only did we have to endure the fumes for hours, but i am worried that our safety is at stake due to an explosion and or asphyxiation.

1. ) fuel efficiency is not as reported; it is several mpgs lower under all conditions (highway/city). 2.) safety sensor to alert for pedestrians on sides/front do not work properly. even service rep at dealership said she has had other reports of it not functioning properly and the sensors/system may need to be 'reset'. it is incredibly dangerous to think these systems can fail without any warning message or notice. car was at a stop and as it started moving forward, a pedestrian came from the right front and was nearly hit. there were no advance warnings, audio/visual to alert the driver. also after checking with a friend, we could not trigger the alert walking from right to left (from side to front) of vehicle. no accident occurred, thankfully, but people need to know these systems fail and need to be checked to notify of oncoming pedestrians/bikers/vehicles. i bought this expensive vehicle because it had 'sensors' and thought it would be far safer according to sales guy. not the case. the public is being misled.
