ROCK POPPED UP AND PUNCTURED THE A/C CONDENSER WHICH RESULTED IN THE A/C GOING OUT DUE TO FREON LEAKING OUT. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THE ODYSSEY AND HONDA SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IN CORRECTING THE DEFECT. I HAVE TO HAVE THE COMPRESSOR REPLACED AND RECHARGED WHICH WILL COST 700.00. I HAVE THE PART ORDERED BUT HAVE TO GO WITHOUT AIR FOR A WEEK UNTIL IT COMES IN AND I LIVE IN FLORIDA SO IT IS NOT FUN HAVING KIDS AND NO AIR THIS TIME OF YEAR. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS CLEANING MY 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY WHEN I NOTICED AFTER LIFTING UP THE HOOD OF THE MINIVAN THAT THE GROUNDING STRAP FROM THE ENGINE CHASSIS WAS NOT ATTACHED TO A NON-PAINTED SURFACE ON THE CHASSIS. THE SURFACE THAT THE STRAP WAS ATTACHED TO WAS PAINTED THE SAME COLOR AS THE MINIVAN. I TOOK OUT MY OHMMETER AND MEASURED ABOUT 100 AND 200 MILLIOHMS FROM LUG TO CHASSIS AT TWO DIFFERENT POINTS. THIS IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN WHAT IS ALLOWED BY ELECTRICAL SAFETY GUIDELINES AND E3 STANDARDS. THIS FLAW COULD CAUSE ELECTRICAL SAFETY AND E3 ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE.
