Summaries are quoted verbatim from NHTSA's official campaign records. A single campaign often covers dozens of model years and several nameplates, so a summary may name vehicles other than the 2000 Odyssey — that is normal. Every record listed here carries this vehicle's own make, model and model year in NHTSA's database. Whether a recall is still open on a particular car can only be determined by VIN.

WHEN WE (FAMILY OF 4) WERE BACKING OUT OF OUR DRIVE WAY, AT/ABOUT 5MPH, A LOUD METALLIC NOISE WAS HEARD. IT APPEARED TO COME FROM UNDER THE VAN, FRONT/LEFT SIDE.

CAR BEGAN TO RUMBLE AND VIBRATE WHEN I PULLED INTO MY GARAGE. THERE WAS A LOUD POP NOISE WHEN ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF AND AGAIN WHEN I STARTED IT THE NEXT MORNING. THOUGHT IT WAS AN EXHAUST PROBLEM BUT MY RIGHT FRONT ENGINE MOUNT WAS BROKEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT ENGINE MOUNTS I FOUND THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE HONDA ODYSSEY. MORE THAN LIKELY, I WILL BE NEEDING THE OTHER MOUNTS REPLACED IN THE NEAR FUTURE. IF SOMEONE THINKS IT IS AN EXHAUST ISSUE, THEY MAY PUT OFF HAVING IT CHECKED WHICH CAN PUT STRESS ON THE OTHER MOUNTS. SEEMS TO M
