This has happening for several months now, maybe over a year, but recently more and more. I looked online and many people are saying this is a safety issue - these readings are used for inspections, maintenance, insurance, etc. Th problem is that there are extra segments highlighted in the LCD display, which makes the affected digits unreadable. Like, if all 7 segments appear showing an \"8\", that could be any number. If the number shows as a 7, it might really be a 1 -- you can't tell. If it shows a 3, that might really be a 7 or 1. Sometimes there is no actual digit showing, just a random assortment of segments. Date of \"first\" occurrence below is just an estimate, but it has really gotten worse in the last few weeks.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ODYSSEY","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":11472094,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/22/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"07/02/2022","vin":"2HKRL1878YH","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"Automatic sliding door won't open or close properly","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ODYSSEY","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":11472100,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"06/29/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"07/02/2022","vin":"2HKRL1878YH","components":"SEATS","summary":"Front seat doesn't lock bounces","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ODYSSEY","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":11472102,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"05/04/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"07/02/2022","vin":"2HKRL1878YH","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"Paint fading peeling chipping","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ODYSSEY","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":11360611,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"02/01/2020","dateComplaintFiled":"09/23/2020","vin":"2HKRL1868YH","components":"AIR BAGS","summary":"I RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT THE AIRBAGS CAN HIT THE PASSENGER WITH METAL IF DEPLOYED OVER SIX MONTHS AGO.

THERE ARE NUMEROUS CONSUMERS IN MY SAME POSITION- AN ACKNOWLEDGED MANUFACTURER DEFECT SPECIFIC TO OUR 2000 HONDA ODYSSEYS YET FOR CORPORATE REASONS HONDA REFUSES TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO US FOR SOMETHING THEY HAVE ALREADY TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY FOR AND HAVE SELECTIVELY PROVIDED REMEDY TO CORRECT.  NOT EXTENDING THE SAME RECOURSE AS WAS PROVIDED TO ALL OTHER 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS IN BOTH CANADA AND AMERICA HAS EXCLUDED A POPULATION OF OWNERS THAT ARE NONETHELESS AFFECTED.  FOR HONDA TO PROVIDE REMEDY TO SELECT 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY OWNERS AND REFUSE REMEDY TO A CERTAIN CLASS OF INDIVIDUALS IS EXTREMELY IRRESPONSIBLE.  THIS SPECIFIC TRANSMISSION DEFECT IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER/SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION CAN SEVERELY IMPEDE THE PERFORMANCE OF A VEHICLE.  HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE DEFECT YET SELECTIVELY PROVIDED CERTAIN VEHICLE OWNERS RECOURSE BUT FAILED TO PROVIDE ALL.  THESE DEFECTIVE VEHICLES ABANDONED BY HONDA CREATE SAFETY CONCERNS NOT ONLY FOR THE VEHICLE DRIVER BUT ALSO TO ANYONE ON THE ROAD WITH THEM.  HONDA NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES.    *NM","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2000","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ODYSSEY","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]},{"odiNumber":10148299,"manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"01/15/2006","dateComplaintFiled":"01/22/2006","vin":"2HKRL1872YH","components":"SUSPENSION","summary":"1.

AFTER SOME RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THAT HONDA HAS SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THEIR TRANSMISSIONS AND THE HONDA DEALER I TOOK IT TO ADMITTED AS MUCH. TO FIX THIS KNOWN DEFECT IN THEIR VEHICLES, HONDA HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON TRANSMISSIONS ON MANY OF THEIR CARS INCLUDING MY YEAR MODEL AND MAKE. SO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT HONDA WOULD REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION FOR FREE.  HOWEVER, WHEN THEY PULLED UP MY VIN I WAS GIVEN THE UNFORTUNATE NEWS THAT MY CAR HAS A CANADIAN VIN--A SUPPOSED \"GREY MARKET VEHICLE\" AND THAT HONDA VOIDS THE WARRANTY ON THESE VEHICLES.

THE SPECIFIC PROBLEM IS THAT THE MIDDLE PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT ON MY 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY EX HAS BROKEN AND WILL NOT RETRACT.  THE GENERAL PROBLEM IS THAT I NEED TO GO ALL THE WAY TO CANADA FROM SEATTLE TO GET IT FIXED.  MY WIFE AND I PURCHASED OUR 2000 HONDA ODYSSEY EX FOUR MONTHS AGO WITH 29,000 MILES ON IT.  THE VAN WAS PURCHASED FROM A PRIVATE PARTY WHO HAD BOUGHT IT WITH 192 MILES ON IT FROM A DEALER.  WITH THE PURCHASE CAME AN EXTENDED WARRANTY LEADING US TO ASSUME THAT WE WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF IF THE HONDA ODYSSEY EX HAD ANY SERIOUS PROBLEMS.  I THINK OF A BROKEN SEATBELT THAT HOLDS IN MY CHILDREN AS A SERIOUS PROBLEM.  MY REGULAR MECHANIC TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER BECAUSE HE SAID HONDA HAS A LIFETIME WARRANTEE ON THEIR SEATBELTS.  MY EXTENDED WARRANTEE COMPANY (HERITAGE) DOES NOT COVER SEATBELTS OR AIRBAGS BUT INSISTED THAT HONDA SHOULD.  WE TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALER (BURIEN HONDA) WHO SAID THAT SEATBELTS ARE ALWAYS COVERED BY HONDA.  THEY TOOK MY INFO AND SAID THEY WOULD ORDER THE PARTS.  A FEW HOURS LATER I GOT A CALL FROM THE DEALER STATING THAT BECAUSE THE CAR HAS A VIN INDICATING IT WAS PURCHASED IN CANADA IT WAS NOT COVERED.   I THEN CALLED HONDA (IN AMERICA) CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER THEY WERE NICE BUT TOLD ME THAT CARS SOLD IN CANADA ARE NOT COVERED BY HONDA  WE DID NOT KNOW THE VEHICLE WAS FROM CANADA, ALTHOUGH THAT SHOULD NOT MATTER.  IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ALL 2000 HONDA ODYSSEYS WERE MADE IN CANADA AND ALL HAVE THE SAME FAMILIAR HONDA LOGO ON THE HOOD.

THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WAS THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WITH ONLY 6,000 MILES ON THE ODYESSY. I WAS SOUTHBOUND ON EUCLID AVE. AT INTERSTATE 5. I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT IN A UPHILL POSITION. I WAS THE FIRST VEHICLE AT THE LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURN GREEN, I PROCEEDED TO GO AND MY ODYSSEY TRANSMISSION SLIPPED AND THEN CAUGHT AND THEN THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. THIS CAUSED THE ODYSSEY TO LURCH FORWARD AND THEN STOP SUDDENLY. WHEN THE ODYSSEY STOPPED I STILL HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS TO GO SO THAT NO BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON TO WARN THE DRIVERS TO MY REAR THAT MY  VEHICLE WAS ABOUT TO STOP. MY ODYSSEY WAS HIT IN THE REAR BUMPER BY THE VEHICLE TO MY REAR. THE ACCIDENT WAS REPORTED TO THE ANAHEIM POLICE WHO CAME TO THE SCENE AND MADE REPORT # DR NO 00-23199. THE VEHICLE TO MY REAR WAS WITHOUT INSURANCE. I REPORTED THIS ACCIDENT TO HONDA OF AMERICA AND THE CALLED ME BACK TO INFORM ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DAMAGES TO MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD AN APPRAISAL OF MY DAMAGES YET IT COULD BE SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS. I AM HOLDING OFF BECAUSE ON THE APPRAISAL BECAUSE THE VEHICLE BEHIND MINE HAD NO INSURANCE AND AMERICAN HONDA CLAIMS NO RESPONSIBILITY.
