Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While car shopping at a local honda dealership we observed that the power sliding doors on a 2001 honda odyssey do not have any emergency stopping mechanism should an arm or other body part be in the way of the door when it is closing. my hand was in the door when it was attempting to close and it was slightly pinched. i moved away from it avoiding serious injury. we tested the door several times after this and it responded the same way each time. it did not stop unless the key fob was used. when we pointed this out to the salesman we were told that we were the first people that had noticed this. if you pull on the door handle from the exterior it initiates the door closing automatically. for a small child that might use that handle as a method of entry this could be extremely dangerous. the salesman said that it was probably different on a newer model. we didn't check on the condition of a newer model to see if it has been remedied or not. *jb |
