Date Component Summary Severity Mileage
Nov 2025 STRUCTURE The rear power liftgate on our 2019 Honda Odyssey has repeatedly closed automatically while the vehicle is parked on a slope, including our driveway. This has occurred multiple times, and in one instance, the door struck me on the head. The issue seems to be gravity-related and may involve a malfunction in the tailgate spring or motor system. I reported this to the dealership, and they were unable to replicate the issue. However, I have video evidence and found that Honda issued Service Bulletin 22-018, which may be related. The dealership has not confirmed whether this bulletin applies to our vehicle. This is a serious safety concern, especially for families with children or elderly passengers. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether this issue is widespread and whether a recall or further guidance is warranted. Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
Nov 2025 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE We began getting several warnings related to Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Detection, Lane Departure not working. This was due to the multipurpose camera internal failure. The camera had to be replaced by a authorized Honda Dealer at a cost of $2,200. While the car was drivable no safety features related to the multipurpose camera were available. There were no indications of issues prior to the camera going bad. Due to the cost of replacement I would think that a large portion of drivers do not get the camera replaced and continue to drive the vehicle without use of the safety features provided. Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
Nov 2025 FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM My 2019 Honda Odyssey has a check engine light on due to failing fuel injectors. Honda service center told me, the Cost to repair would put you out the door @ 1919.38. My car has fewer than 60,000 miles, for me personally, it's a manufacturing fault. After seeing the check engine light, I didn't drive my car other than take it to the Honda service center.

Oct 2025 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,AIR BAGS The SRS airbag fault has been popping up for a while on the van. I went to my local dealership to get this fixed. $1,500 later they tell me they fixed an airbag harness and the problem should be good to go. A week later the fault appears again. I feel like they’re just throwing parts at the van to fix this legitimate safety concern. Now they want to charge us $3,000 to fix another harness. For this being a safety concern and have been told my air bags may not be deploy in a crash, the dealership and Honda isn’t taking this situation serious.

Oct 2025 POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle suddenly shifted into neutral as indicated by the gear shift indicator light. The contact was able to coast to the shoulder of the roadway, where the failure persisted, and the vehicle was unable to shift into drive. The Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Collision Mitigation System, Road Departure System, and Transmission Fault Detected messages were displayed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a failure with the Transmission Control Unit. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V299000 (Power Train, Electrical System), but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 133,000.

Oct 2025 ENGINE I was traveling approximately 65 MPH on Interstate 75 Southbound near Cincinnati, Ohio with the flow of traffic. Cruise control was not being used at this time. I felt a sudden loss of acceleration and heard a shrieking sound. I also observed the check engine light illuminate. I immediately signaled and moved toward the right shoulder from the middle left lane. Upon entering the far right lane, the same loss of power and shriek sound happened. I took the exit ramp to Sharon Road and upon releasing the accelerator, the vehicle's engine stalled. I coasted to a stop in the far left turn lane. I personally inspected the vehicle and upon using a scope into the spark plug holes, found that the center rear cylinder shows signs that the piston collided with at least one valve, and the piston does not move with the crankshaft. However, the rear valves do move. The front center piston and valves both move. This suggests a connecting rod issue. Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
Oct 2025 FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding a premature and dangerous failure of the high-pressure fuel pump in my 2019 Honda Odyssey, VIN [XXX] . This component failure occurred while my wife was travelling from New Jersey to central New York on Saturday, August 9, 2025, leaving our vehicle disabled and creating a significant safety risk and financial burden. I am formally requesting full reimbursement for the repair and towing costs. On that date, while [XXX] was driving our vehicle through Jim Thorpe, PA, the fuel pump failed suddenly and without warning. The "emissions system problem" and "brake system problem" messages appeared on the dashboard, and the engine began "coughing" and "stuttering" before losing all motive power. This is an unacceptable and extreme safety hazard for a vehicle of this age (70,000 miles). [XXX] was forced to have the vehicle towed to our local Honda service center, Burns Honda in Marlton, NJ. Technicians at Burns Honda diagnosed the failure, noting diagnostic trouble code P0087, indicating that the rail fuel pressure was too low. According to their report, they confirmed an internal fault with the high-pressure fuel pump after observing the fuel pressure had plummeted from a normal 3000 PSI to just 70 PSI. The necessary repair was a full replacement of the high-pressure fuel pump with Honda-genuine part kit 06161-RLV-305. While I understand my specific VIN may not currently be under an active recall for this component, my research shows that Honda is acutely aware of systemic issues with fuel pumps across its lineup. Honda has issued massive recalls (e.g., NHTSA Campaign Number 23V-799) for fuel pumps in millions of 2018-2020 models, including the Odyssey, Accord, and CR-V. The symptoms described in these official recalls (a potential for the engine to stall or lose power while driving) are identical to what we experienced. Recently Honda has recalled high-pressure fuel pumps manufactured by Hitachi Astemo. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Oct 2025 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM I am the original owner of this vehicle and have performed all regular maintenance on schedule. It is our primary family vehicle and now over 120,000 miles. Since purchasing it new in 2018, the fuse for the horn has blown out several times each year. Most recently, the horn has stopped working, but the fuse remains intact. I am at a loss as to how to repair without taking apart the steering wheel which could damage the airbag. This is a serious safety issue as the horn is necessary to avoid accidents. I have spoken to the service department at my dealer and they are unaware of any recalls affecting the horn.

Oct 2025 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE All of the alarm lights are going on at once, immediately when the car is turned on. This includes the Collision Mitigation System Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control System, Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Break System. I am told by my local garage that it is a Odyssey radar system failure, that probably originates in the camera or computer, but that they cannot fix it or get parts for it. It is unclear if these systems work or not.

Oct 2025 POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER On 10/4/2025, I was driving with my family on a single lane road around 7:30pm. The van automatically went into neutral "N" gear and there was a message displayed on the dashboard saying it is not safe to drive and asking me to pull over when it is safe to do so. Pressing the gas pedal didn't do anything. Eventually the car came to a stop. The car wouldn't allow me to shift the gear to D or P. A cop who was driving by, saw my situation and nudged the car to the side of the road because it was blocking other traffic. I turned off the car and waited for 5 minutes. Turned the car back on. This time the message displayed as "Emission system problem". I was able to drive the van normally for another 30 miles to get back home. There was no obvious mechanical issues either before or after the car went to neutral. On Monday, I took the car to a honda dealership. While driving there, the car still had "Emission system problem" error. As soon as the person in the dealership turned on the car to get the mileage, the dashboard message went away. They did a diagnostic and said that they got a p0810 code. They reset the code and drove it for 10 miles trying to reproduce the issue. They couldn't reproduce it. I have driven the car for more than a week and I don't have the problem. However, a car automatically going into neutral while still driving on the road, seems to be a very dangerous issue. Please investigate this issue. Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
Oct 2025 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE,LANE DEPARTURE My engine lights started flashing. I was stranded with my children. Had to coast into a nearby gas station. I’m told it’s a failed monocular camera causing all of it. When I google that it looks like it has happened to SO MANY people! A recall needs to happen.

Oct 2025 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE My 2019 Honda Odyssey EX-L has had sporadic errors happen: Adaptive Cruise Control Problem, Lane Keeping Assist Problem, Collision Mitigation System Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, Blind Spot Info System Problem. These errors have shown up before sporadically and the dealer, DCH Honda of Oxnard was notified April 27, 2023. They could not replicate and did not respond in writing that something was wrong. The errors went away on their own. 3 weeks ago, the errors showed up again, this time also including a transmission system problem warning. The car was taken to Honda in Valencia and they ran a diagnostic and recommended the transmission be replaced or they would give us $2500 for the car. We opted to have a well reputed private transmission mechanic replace the transmission. After doing so the errors are still there. The transmission system problem error even showed up sporadically the very same day we picked the car up. There is no rhyme or reason to these errors other than perhaps a faulty windshield camera, which takes 5 minutes to replace but Honda wants to charge $2k. We also experienced the delayed shifting due to the poor 9 speed transmission and vcm design. It was quite scary to have a car full of children making a left turn on a busy road and not have the car kick into gear but rather slip. Installing a vcm tuner to bypass the computer shifting helped as well as not driving the car in Econ. Honda knows they made a bad car and while Honda Pilots and other models have had recalls related to the transmission, I am atill waiting for NHTSA to take action and include my lemon Odyssey as well. Replacing the transmission cost me over $7k and it may not have been necessary in the end if in fact these errors were related to the camera. Crash: No Fire: No Unknown
