I have a 2011 Odyssey EX-L with 600 miles on it. I first experienced hesitation on acceleration at low (10-15 mph) speeds on a slight incline when there was a little over 200 miles on the car. When I would press the accelerator lightly, there was no response as if the engine died. I would continue to press the accelerator and suddenly it would respond with a lurch. At first, the hesitation happened after rounding a curve following a "rolling" stop. It has happened several times since then and now it even does it when driving straight on level roads.
It is at the Honda dealer now for the third time and their mechanic stated it happened when he was driving it with instrumentation hooked to the data port. The service rep said they downloaded all the data from the Odyssey's computer and sensors and sent it to Honda tech who said the data was "normal" (inconclusive) and asked for more data. The service rep said if nothing new comes up they may have to replace the Odyssey's computer.
The first time I took it to the dealer, I was told the mechanic reset/rebooted the sensor for the device that runs the ECO feature-the one that shuts down two of the cylinders for improved economy.
I have reported the problem twice to Honda Corporate at 1-800-999-1009 and have been assigned a case number and a rep called me to say they will work with the dealer to fix the problem.
This is my first Honda and I am very disappointed. Everyone I have talked with who own Odyssey's tell me they are "bulletproof" and they just love them.
Anyone else have this problem and if so, how was it resolved?
