| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Driving home in my 2002 honda odyssey on an 80 degree evening, i heard a popping sound near the radio console, small amount of smoke came out of the volume control knob, and strong odor of burnt wire or something. took the van to the dealer and was told that radio (cd/tape/dvd combo) needs to be replaced and it would cost about $1000. i didn't even hit the 4th year anniversary of ownership of this van and the radio failed already. the dealer said that cause is usually due to coins being slipped-in into the cd/tape slots by kids. the dealer opened the radio console and confirmed that it was not coins, but some kind of short circuit inside the radio. never had a problem with the radio/cd/tape/dvd unit until the incident date. *jb |
