Description of the problem | We bought a 2011 odyssey ex in mid november of last year and had an after market remote starter put in the week after we got it. A few days later, the vsa light came on. After 3 trips to honda they finally fixed it, the whole module was burnt out. A week or so later, the low battery light started coming on. After maybe 4-5 trips back to honda, they say honda is aware of this problem but there is nothing that can be done. I don't drive long distance being a mom of 3 kids. They say short distances for this car are causing the problem. So it's my fault i don't drive that much and not far!!! The light comes on and the chimes several times each day when i open the door and sometimes when i turn the car off. The low battery light and chimes also goes on when i'm just sitting in the car w/ the engine off and keys out of the ignition. It's really getting annoying and they have no solution for the problem. You buy a new car for all that money and you don't expect to see problems in such a short amount of time. In the 4 months since owning the car, i have 2000 miles and the problems started at about 150 miles. I love the car except for the low battery light on all the time. What's going to happen in the future w/ it? |
