Description of the problem | I was just entering highway via ramp and accelerating to merge. As soon as the speed hit approximately 55mph, it suddenly put the brake and dropped the speed to about 40mph. Every time i tried to go beyond the speed, it suddenly put the brake. I could not get the speed to go beyond 55mph. It was very dangerous for me and also for the other drivers around me. I eventually pulled over and turned the key off to wait for about 5minutes and then i started the car. That time, no problem. The exactly same incident happened three other times rather randomly. Every time, i had to pull over and wait for few minutes it restart the car. When i mentioned it to on the phone to honda service representative at the dealer i bought the car, he just said that the recall is for pilot only and they have no knowledge of the odyssey having this issue. So, i am adding my name to the list of complains with the hope that honda takes this seriously. Thanks. |
