Honda Odyssey Electrical System Safety Report | Jan 21, 2011
Reported on Jan 21, 2011
| I PURCHASED A NEW 2011 HONDA ODYSSEY EX ON 1/21/2011. AFTER ARRIVING HOME MY WIFE OPENED THE PASSENGER DOOR AND THE ¿LOW BATTERY CHECK MANUAL¿ WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF. THE NEXT DAY AND FOR THE NEXT 3 DAYS THE WARNING LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. ON PAGE 87 OF THE OWNER¿S MANUAL IT STATES THAT DRIVING FOR SHORT TRIPS DOESN'T GIVE THE BATTERY TIME TO RECHARGE AND THE LOW BATTERY WARNING MAY FLASH. MY DEALER STATED THAT SOME ODYSSEY¿S HAVE FAULT IN THE BATTERY SENSOR SYSTEM AND WILL BE NEED TO BE HOOKED UP TO A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE FOR 2-3 HOURS. I WAS TOLD THAT IF THE LOW BATTERY COMES ON WHILE I¿M DRIVING TO BRING IT IN IMMEDIATELY. I TOOK THE CAR ON A 500 MILE ROAD TRIP AND TWO 300 MILE ROAD TRIPS. THE LOW BATTERY LIGHT HAS NOT COME ON SINCE. *TR | |
