CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2007-2009 was, at one point, the best selling minivan in the United States. But 2007 owners got the short end of that deal.

Peeling paint, a whining steering pump and an easily breakable A/C condenser are all top complaints about the 2007 model year. And anyone who doesn't think a busted minivan A/C is a big deal has never taken a summer road trip with kids.

As the driver and only passenger of the above referenced vehicle en-route to pick-up my wife from work on Thursday, 19 February 2015 at approximately 1630 hours, I was involved in a three vehicle collision while travelling approximately 33 mph westbound on dale boulevard approaching forrestdale avenue in woodbridge, Virginia. At the time of the incident, I was wearing my seat belt. The driver side airbag in my 2007 Honda Odyssey deployed. Initial assumption was that as the result of the airbag deployment, my head was forcefully pushed towards the driver side window. And that the impact shattered the glass causing multiple lacerations on the left side of my face, multiple fractures around the eye socket and hyphema in my left eye (photos available for your perusal). To this date, I can't make sense of this assumption. I was immediately transported by emt ambulance to sentara hospital emergency room. X-rays on my chest showed no broken bones. Cat scans to my head confirmed multiple fractures on the eye socket and cheek bones. Surgery was performed between 12 midnight " 3:00 am to suture the lacerations and ensure that my left eye was clear of broken glass. I was out of work from Friday, 20 February 2015 thru Monday, 02 March 2015 by order of dr. Babur lateef, opthalmologist, advanced opthalmology Inc. " the specialist who performed the surgery. Dr. lateef continues to see me to monitor the pressure in my eye, monitor the possibility of getting cataract and vision correction. The vehicle has been repaired and is now in good operating condition (photos of the damage prior to repair available for your perusal). However, with the advent of future recalls due to airbag incidents in the news I decided to share this experience in hopes that I can assist if not help prevent these types of injury/ies.

The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The vehicle was repaired. Two days later, the vsa light illuminated and was repaired. Updated 7/14/15

The air bag dash light will activate after the van has been started and has been running for a short while. This happens on most trips fairly consistently now. Air bags should be warranted for the life of the vehicles, especially for Honda, since they are putting poor quality SRS units in their products for the last 15 years or more.

My wife two children and 4 guests were moving from a stop through an intersection when another driver disregarded a red light and hit our car toward the rear of the sliding door and front of rear wheel. The other car's speed was unknown but they did not appear to stop prior to impact. All driver side airbags along the side of the car deployed. My wife and one daughter sustained injuries which required hospital examination. All passengers had seat belt burns. My wife was struck with something on the top of her head presumably from debris from the airbags or trim when the airbags deployed. This left a small round hole on the top of her head. She had blood loss which was treated by witnessing nurses and dispatched emt. She was treated and released from the local hospital and has been recuperating at home. We are evaluating further treatment options for other musculoskeletal injuries. Most seat belt burns were minor although the guest passenger in the 2nd row middle seat (removable seat) had more significant burns due to angle of seat belt.

I rear-ended another vehicle, which was stopped, going approximately 35 mph and my air bags did not deploy. I did not think about this issue until the officer at the scene brought it to my attention since he was surprised that they did not deploy. We will not find out until Monday whether or not the car is totaled.

Our 4 small children and a parent were in the vehicle while it was turned on and sitting in our driveway in the parked position when the curtain airbags along the entire length of the Honda Odyssey on both sides of the vehicle spontaneously deployed causing significant hearing damage to all occupants and rendering the vehicle inoperable. We are now very frightened that there is an obvious safety defect with our Honda Odyssey and that at a future time any other airbag in the minivan may spontaneously deploy again or that in the event of a serious collision the airbag system may fail to deploy all together causing serious injury or fatality.

My mother was in an accident, she was driving on gravel road and she slid off road, down an embankment which left the vehicle on it's side and hit a tree head-on. My question is, why did the airbags not deploy? she hit her head on steering wheel twice and suffered neck and back injuries. Thank the lord she had her seatbelt on. The van is totaled and I am thankful that my mother is alive but very disappointed and angry that airbags did not deploy.
