Hey, I noticed a bug with my 2022 EX. Sometimes power sliding doors are not working. They can only be opened/closed manually while the power trunk door is working fine (so this does not look like a fuse or the button that disables the power doors). I am not able to open them either by pressing the button on the key fob, a button on the handle, or buttons inside (to the bottom left of the driver's dashboard). They can only be opened/closed manually.
The dealership service said to come to them once they stop working again, but the doors are sporadically working or not working. They were not working this morning but when I went out to drive to the service they started to work again. lol
Did anyone have the same or similar? Or where should I look at?

Hi, was it from the very beginning, or started later (low battery issue?). I don't have the same, but if I push close door button AND start the engine, while door is moving - it stops, goes back a little, then reverses again and closes. For now, I'm just avoiding to start/stop the engine, while door is on the move.

I had something like this on our old odyssey. I had to film it and show them because it kept randomly happening. It took a few visits but they had to replace a bunch of stuff. Luckily I noticed it before buying it and made its repair a condition of the sale. So I guess my advice is to try and get it on film.

This is not related to battery, as it happens no matter engine is on or off. No mater you press the button on keyfob or you are trying to open the door without it.

Did you every resolve this odd door closing behavior when starting the van? We have had our Carnival for a week and the same thing happens on ours. We load the kids into the van, start the power doors closing, and then press the engine start/stop button while the doors are in process of closing. The sliding side doors always stop closing, reverse slightly, then resume closing again.

That's the expected behavior in this case.
