View Honda Odyssey Sliding Door Won T Close Background. Odyssey's have a history of losing a bumper that fits in between the sliding door and the door rail stop. I have a 2006 honda odyssey ex.
If the car thinks the gas door is open it will keep trying to lock the sliding door, thus the battery drain.
On several occassions i have been put my kids in their car seats and the door starts to close. If it's closing flush the lock mechanism is either still frozen or you broke the latch rod inside and its not allowing the latch to lock if it won't close flush then the latch hitch in the door is still down. The door would have crushed me if i did not jump out of the way. One reviewer wrote this on edmunds, i owned this minivan for 5 months so far and i'm not satisfied with the reliability.
