#34 of 54 '06 Odyssey Warranty Question: Door Latch by chris_into Jun 21, 2008 (9:19 am)
Hi there - I have an '06 Odyssey and am now into my extended 'Comprehensive New Vehicle Warranty' period (purchased up-front). The driver-side sliding door does not latch properly when closed and so the instrument panel indicates an open door, interior lights stay on, etc. It's in for service at the moment and the dealership has said the needed latch assembly is in the $400-$500 range and unfortunately is not covered by our extended warranty. I'm reading through the details and of course find no specific reference to it. Should this be a covered part? Replies to this message: jipster (Jun 25, 2008 6:37 am)

If manual, then dealership can claim you abused the doors.   I'd talk to the g.m, then corporate Honda if not satisfied. Seems to me the latch mechanism could be adjusted instead of springing for a new one. I'd also take it to another Honda dealership for a second opinion.

Replying to: pkgman2 (May 18, 2008 6:17 am) Sir, I had the same problem a while ago. My advice may be too late any way here is what I did: I went to fry’s electro. And paid for all kind of tools so I can start investigating I got home mad took off the wall panels to compare the situation. It was all fine the same but no electricity  finally I disconnected the battery for a coffee brake when I return I reconnect the battery and my door was working the same as new. Later one it happened again and I just disconnected the battery (coffee brake), reconnect after and I was back in business all what you have to do every time it is to reset password on your radio. Good luck! Replies to this message: peteypie (Aug 16, 2008 11:33 pm)
#37 of 54 2008 Odyssey EX-L W/RES Sliding Door Concerns by ratss Jul 06, 2008 (5:32 pm)
We just bought a 2008 EXL w/RES. We noticed the passenger sliding door does not open as far as the drier's side sliding door. Upon inspection, I noticed a hinged tab that that strikes a stopper on the passenger side. If you open the door manually and carefully hold in the hinged tab, you can get the door to open all the way, but otherwise it stops short of all the way open. The driver's side sliding door does not appear to have this hinged tab. Is this by design? Has anyone else noticed this? Why would Honda not have both doors open all the way. Additionally, if opening the passenger sliding door manually, if you do not hold the tab in, the door will not "catch" and lock open, this is dangerous. You can hold the tab in beyond the door stop and it will open all the way and "catch."   I'm trying to find out if I need to go back to the dealership or if this is an intentional design.

I understand the window safety feature. That is not the case hear. Window is up all the way. Passenger sliding door will not open all the way. Took it the dealership today and they had to take the whole door apart and order parts. The car is two weeks old. Just wanted to know if others were having the same problem. Checked with a friend who bought the same car a few months ago. They are having the same problem and are going to the dealer tomorrow.

Replying to: ratss (Jul 08, 2008 6:13 pm) Did you get a solid answer to what happened here? I have the same issue with the passenger sliding door. I removed the latch on the door track that was holding it from openeing all the way. Now it opens fine. However, I have what appears to be a related problem in that the window on the same door will not go down. The motor works but only does a quick "bump" & stops.

Replying to: obrien2004 (Jul 16, 2008 7:05 am) Yes it was the window sensor. They replaced it and everything has been fine since.
