2005 Honda Odyssey

The front passenger door would not open from either the inside or outside latch even though unlocked as the door lock knob was up. this problem was observed about mid december 2019. took it to a honda dealer, south tacoma honda, and they could not open the door either. they said the interior panel would need to be destroyed to access the mechanisms and repair. had the repair done by south tacoma honda who replaced the interior door panel because they had to tear it out, latch and actuator for $1,092.56. they did not know why the actuator and latch failed. i'm concerned this could occur with the driver side door too. it's a safety issue if the door(s) won't open.

Have had intermittent issue with the automatic feature not being able to fully close the driver's side door. today, i tried to open it but driver's side door was making grinding noise and only opening 1/3 of the way on the automatic setting. i disengaged the automatic sliding door function and opened it manually. slid open no problem. i reengaged the auto setting when i went to close the door. it started to slide close and a little less than half way, it fell at me, coming completely off the car other than a small guide wire in the center. i can not get it back into place and am looking into getting it towed to be repaired. when the center roller came off the track it left gigantic gashes in the paint/metal on the side of the van.

The side doors fell off the track. both of them within days. one when opening it and the other driving down my driveway. i'm just glad it didnt happen on the highway because that seriously could have hurt someone. i looked this issue up and found it is very common on these van's and a lot of people are having this happen. one door is now held on with a strap and the other one we got closed and back on but we cannot open them. my kids have to climb over the front seats to get to their seats. i am very worried they will fly off driving down the highway like i've read others have. the side of my van is all scratched up from them falling off too.

Driver side automatic sliding door unlatched while driving on interstate. i got a emergency tone telling me something was wrong, but no indication on the dash. i found a couple recalls for this problem and stopped by the local honda dealer (piazza), but they said the vin has no recalls and the recall is too old. i just bought the vehicle a month ago. this is a safety issue known by honda and even if it is happening only now, the dealer should repair at no cost to me.
