What owners wrote

Electronic left sliding door closure mechanism closes on my left arm, and fails to emergency stopping and retracting.

June 1999 Injury

The passenger side sliding door on my 1999 honda odyssey has failed to open on many occasions and I didn't think of it as anything more than a nuisance. This time one of my children's fingers was caught in the door and we were unable to open the door either from the inside or the outside for several minutes until we got a passerby to force it open. His finger was significantly more damaged than if we had been able to immediately open the door, not to mention the panic and distress and being trapped.
