Something has been happening with the Odyssey’s central locking.

When the car was young, it would randomly lock itself multiple times repeatedly. The dealer couldn’t really tell what was wrong, but the issue resolved itself.

Now later in life it’s been having a new set of issues centered around the central locking. Sometimes the front passenger door will just not open. The door lock pin moves up and it makes the unlocking noise, but the door will not open! The only way around this is to either fiddle around with unlocking and locking it or go out the drivers door. :-/

Now yestersay, none of the doors except the drivers door would unlock. The hazard lights would blink like they normally do, but the door lock sound was not happening. Eventually they did open up.

Anyone heard of Odysseys having issues with locking?

That's weird. The only difference between my Odyssey and yours is the trim and color, but I've never had a problem with anything on mine.

I wanna know what’s going on with that black eye there.

The left headlight looks a bit black.

Oh, yes. It’s just the angle of the camera I think. Both headlights have a dark part under the lights and in between the turn signal.

A simple Google search results in no issues like yours, unless you go to 2000 Odysseys, which yours clearly isn’t. My recommendation would just be to take it to the dealer and show them the issue to see if they can fix it.

Hopefully you get the issue repaired! Glad my little Accent has manual locks :S

Crazy. The only problem we've had like that is one of the glove boxes won't close all the way. Besides that, ours is perfect and has been dead reliable.

They should get on that, sounds borderline dangerous in an emergency setting.
