Had this problem with a 05 Honda odyssey. Needed to change the negative battery terminal. the contacts were bad. The one that goes on the battery and the one that goes to the engine were corroded. It worked alot better. I will be changing the positive as well.

Shame on the dealer- can't solve it- check with a competent mechanic- shouldn't be a big mystery
