The contact owns a 2002 Honda Odyssey. While driving approximately 65 mph, the vehicle exhibited an unusually loud bang as the contact lost control of the vehicle. The contact was able to regain control of the vehicle and later discovered that the front driver side coil spring was fractured. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the coil spring was repaired. The failure mileage was 74,556 and the current mileage was 74,600.

1) normal driving, no history of accidents or major potholes, etc, that could have possible contributed. 2.) front coil spring on driver side broke, with pieces of the spring falling off. No accident, but needed to repair something that really should not be breaking. 3.) fixed at dealer at my expense. I have a broken part of the spring available.

I own a 2002 Honda Odyssey. On July 22, 2006 while I was parking the van in my garage, I heard loud clanking noise from the front left side. Later next day, when I was backing up the car, a metal piece fell on the ground. It turned to be **suspension spring coil**. I read from other consumer sites that, in 2001 and 2002 Honda Odyssey models this is a known issue. Luckily my extended warranty covered the repair expenses. I sure hope NHTSA would investigate into this potentially dangerous issue. For now, I am just hoping the other coils don't break while driving.
