Honda Odyssey problems

For the North American market, the Honda Odyssey, is a minivan manufactured and marketed by Japanese automaker Honda since 1994, now in its fifth generation, which began in 2018.
The Odyssey had originally been conceived and engineered in Japan, in the wake of the country's economic crisis of the 1990s – which in turn imposed severe constraints on the vehicle's size and overall concept, dictating the minivan's manufacture in an existing facility with minimal modification. The result was a smaller minivan, in the compact MPV class, that was well received in the Japanese domestic market and less well received in North America. The first generation Odyssey was marketed in Europe as the Honda Shuttle.
Subsequent generations diverged to reflect market variations, and Honda built a plant in Lincoln, Alabama, United States, incorporating the ability to manufacture larger models. Since model year 1999, Honda has marketed a larger (large MPV-class) Odyssey in North America and a smaller Odyssey in Japan and other markets. Honda also offered the larger North American Odyssey in Japan as the LaGreat (ラグレイト, Ragureito) beginning in June 1999 through 2005. Both versions of the Odyssey were sold in Japan at Honda Clio dealership locations. Both versions of the Odyssey are currently sold in the Middle East.

Common Honda Odyssey problems
Based on complaints from Honda Odyssey owners, several common problems have been reported:
- Electric Sliding Door Issues:
- Owners have reported problems with the electric sliding doors, where they may not open or close properly when using the activation button. This issue can require a diagnosis by a technician to identify and resolve.
- Warped Front Brake Rotors Causing Vibration When Braking:
- A common problem is vibration felt when braking due to warped front brake rotors. This condition, known as lateral runout, causes heat buildup in the brake pads and rotors, leading to warping over time. Honda has addressed this by revising brake rotors to be less susceptible to warping.
- Transmission Issues Producing Illuminated D4 and Check Engine Lights:
- Owners have reported transmission problems, including rough shifting that triggers illuminated D4 and check engine lights on the dashboard. This issue can range from sensor malfunctions to mechanical failures, with potential causes being dirty transmission fluid or defective sensors.
These issues, although common among Honda Odyssey models, do not affect all vehicles. It's essential for owners to be aware of these problems and address them promptly to ensure the longevity and reliability of their vehicles.

Honda Odyssey 2002
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-07
- Date Complaint: 2024-11-02
- VIN: 2HKRL18602H
- Components: AIR BAGS
- Summary: SRS light stays on. According to my mechanic, it is a SRS fault 1-1 which is a resistance issue at assembly, not the coil.
Honda Odyssey 2006
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-27
- VIN: 5FNRL38796B
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: The back doors start to open and close alone, then they did not open. I had to disconnect the electric doors .And the A/C It turns on by itself
Honda Odyssey 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-02
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-26
- VIN: 5FNRL6H79KB
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE
- Summary: My family and I had just gotten on the parkway and the car wouldn't downshift. I noticed the "Drive" light kept blinking and then the dashboard lit up with so many different warning messages. "Emmissions system problem" was the message that stayed on. All of a sudden the car started shifting on its own into neutral, while we were on the parkway. Thank goodness there was an exit approaching and we were able to get off before we were injured in an accident. I have been having battery issues ever since I got this car. Even when it was brand new, sometimes it just wouldn't start. If I wait a little bit, eventually it starts, but I have already had to replace a battery at 30,000 miles because of this. It has been happening again, but when I bring it to Honda and my mechanic, the battery is normal. After doing research, it appears there was a recall on the 2019 Honda Odyssey with an issue relating to the battery connection that causes that transmission to reboot while driving and shift on its own. Honda claims my car was not part of this recall, but this is exactly what happened to me, and I have a 2019 Odyssey. They have had my car for three weeks now and can't find answers to fix the problem. When I first brought the car in, they said the technician was finding "A LOT of stuff." Fast forward two weeks, and they called to say it's not happening anymore so they are ruling it an "intermittent issue" and to come get the car (not fixed). I told them I do not feel safe with my children in that car. I need answers. I contacted Honda Corporate who said that Honda told them the transmission fluid was the reason, and to start with that and see if it happens again. I asked them about that recall and they said "well your car doesn't come up with it." Is it just a coincidence that the same thing has been happening to my car? I asked if they were able to find out why the car doesn't start "intermittently" and they said, "no, it hasn't happened while here."
Honda Odyssey 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2023-10-31
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-26
- VIN: 5FNRL6H74JB
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: For over a year, my 2018 Honda Odyssey has intermittently hesitated when accelerating, particularly when pulling into intersections or merging into traffic. This hesitation creates a significant safety risk, as the vehicle momentarily fails to respond to acceleration, increasing the potential for collisions in situations where immediate response is necessary. The issue is consistent with symptoms outlined in Honda’s recall (NHTSA Recall Number: 23V-858) involving a malfunctioning fuel pump impeller. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer, who confirmed the issue but indicated that they lack the necessary parts to complete the repair. Despite repeated inquiries, the part remains unavailable, leaving the vehicle unsafe to operate and creating an ongoing safety concern. No warning lights or dashboard messages appear prior to or during the hesitation. The dealer has acknowledged the problem, but without parts, the recall remedy remains incomplete.
Honda Odyssey 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2024-05-25
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-25
- VIN: 5FNRL6H74JB
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: When audio system is turned on, a very loud crackling sound occurs, and will continue after audio is turned off. Sirius XM works most of the time (with crackling sound). However, when the regular radio is turned on the audio will work for just a minute (with crackling sound), and then it will suddenly stop working and a message pops up on the display that says "audio connection lost". This also happens when a phone's Bluetooth audio is connected to the car. It triggers the audio system to suddenly fail. There has been other electrical issue with the rear lift-gate suddenly closing, with no way to stop it. It almost pinned my daughter and I on separate occasions. I'm not sure if this electrical issue is related to the audio issue, but as with any electrical issue I worry about the possibility of an electrical fire.

Honda Odyssey 2021
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-20
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-25
- VIN: 5FNRL6H73MB
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: After having the Honda Dealership perform an oil change and software update 23-008 (updating the Auto Idle Stop Software) last week, my engine stalled while at a busy intersection (PA turnpike/70 junction) during a road trip. At the long stop light the auto idle function engaged and the engine turned off. When the stop light turned green and I lifted my foot off the brake and pressed the gas the engine shut down and automatically went into Park. I had to press the start/stop button to fully turn off then turn back on the car to get the engine to restart. This is with a giant semitruck honking right behind me. The auto idle feature does not work. It sounds terrible every time the engine restarts after it has been engaged. There really should be an option to allow users to permanently disable it, and not have to remember to turn it off every time they start the car--terrible user experience.
Honda Odyssey 2022
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-03
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-25

Honda Odyssey 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-24
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-24
- VIN: 5FNRL6H76JB
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: When pressing the accelerator from a stopped position, sometimes there is a need to let off the accelerator and then press it again. There are times when I do this sequence of events and the car doesn’t accelerate but almost seems to stall. Pressing the accelerator does not increase the speed. To remedy, I have been waiting a few seconds before repressing the accelerator to give the van time to shift or whatever it needs to do not to “stall”. This evening particularly, I was turning right on red so I accelerated and then I noticed that the cars on the street I was turning into had started to go so I let off the accelerator. Unfortunately I noticed that I was too far into the intersection and had no choice but to keep accelerating but my van stalled and wouldn’t accelerate when I pressed on the gas for a few seconds. It eventually “caught up” and accelerated but I ended up spinning my tires and “peeled out”.

- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-18
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-21
- VIN: 5FNRL6H9XNB
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: While placing an item in the rear of my Honda Odyssey mini-van the hatch began to close on me. The safety sensor did not activate and the hatch was closing with great pressure. I was able to slide out before being pinned or severely injured. After investigating why it happened, I discovered and was able to replicate the behavior. The key fob was in my right front pocket at the time I was almost pinned. My house key pressed and held the rear hatch button on the key fob causing it to close. Because the button was pinned down by my other key, the safety pressure sensor failed to activate. I was able to replicate and film this behavior. I was also able to replicate the behavior using my parent's neighbor's Honda Passport. 1. This occurred after turning off the vehicle, and on the first time closing the rear hatch. I have video of being able to replicate the issue available.

Vehicle year: 2005
I hope you're doing well! I just wanted to share my experience with this van that I bought about 4 years ago as a CPO. It has been an amazing family car for us, and we've had no major issues with it. Of course, there has been some expected wear and tear on certain parts, but nothing out of the ordinary. I find this van to be incredibly comfortable, especially on long drives. The Econo feature is a great addition when you're cruising, and the captain's chairs provide adequate support. Even the third row seat has decent leg room, which is surprising for a van of this size. I'm 6 foot tall, and I was able to fit in the third row without any difficulty. Overall, I highly recommend this vehicle!

Vehicle year: 2000
We bought our 2000 Odyssey in 2004 with 93,000 miles. We just replaced the original transmission with a nicely rebuilt one. I absolutely love this van! It drives so nicely, looks great, and gets good mileage (an average of 21 mpg) for a van. Despite the wear and tear we have put on it, with 3 kids, 6 dogs, and numerous road trips, it has performed admirably.

Vehicle year: 2001
Since you drove it off the dealer, there have been no problems. The power sliding doors work fine, the engine is silky smooth just like a Lexus or better. The interior is very roomy, even roomier than its rival, the Town and Country. On your Starlight Silver Honda Odyssey EX, you have installed customized PIAA fog lights and wind deflectors to make the van distinct from others.

Vehicle year: 2013
I purchased this vehicle just last week and wanted to share my experience. While I have enjoyed many aspects of it, I have found that the Navigation System could use some improvement. It was difficult to locate the AT&T store and took me a couple of days to figure out if it even worked. Additionally, the Navigation System comes at a high cost of 2000+, while we can get a better system from Garmin or Megellan for just 300. I would recommend avoiding the Navigation System altogether. Another issue I encountered was that when I placed a child seat in the 2nd row middle seat, it blocked the entrance to the 3rd row because the bucket seat doesn't fold. It would be great to have more space for children's toys and other items as well.

Vehicle year: 2007
This is our second Odyssey and we are thrilled with the improvements in refinement and performance compared to our previous '99 model. The drivetrain is exceptional, with a smooth and powerful engine that is very responsive thanks to the drive by wire throttle. The shifts are excellent too. While the audio system could be better, upgrading with aftermarket options is always an option. We were impressed with the voice-activated NAV system and the XM radio was a nice touch. The interior is high quality and well laid out, although we would have appreciated a 110volt outlet. We did find the cruise control buttons a bit excessive compared to the simplicity of our '97 M3, but overall Honda did a great job.

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share something that happened to me earlier today. I was on my way to pick up my kids from school when I started my car and everything seemed fine. However, when I shifted into drive, the gear automatically changed to park without anyone touching it. I asked my wife if she had opened the door, but she said she hadn't. When I shifted back into drive, the gear changed back to park again, and then the transmission locked and the brakes engaged. It was quite a scary experience!

We purchased our 5 Odyssey touring in June 2020, but due to having a pilot, we didn't get to drive it much. In August, we took it on a road trip and noticed that the XM radio wasn't functioning properly. We didn't think much of it until we received a call from the dealership informing us of 4 recalls. On the way to the dealership, the navigation screen went blank and displayed a message saying 'network connectivity error'. It has been at the dealership for over 3 weeks now, as they have to order a new audio component. While we are not thrilled with the situation, we are confident that the warranty will cover any issues that arise. We had a similar experience with our 2004 Odyssey, but we trusted Honda and unfortunately, the transmission failed shortly after the warranty expired. We had to spend $4,000 replacing it. We hope that the 2020 Odyssey will not have similar issues, but we are grateful for the warranty coverage that will protect us if it does.

When the vehicle was new, it reliably served its main purpose of hauling kids to sports events and carrying family gear while on vacation. However, over the years, we have experienced some issues with the operation of the auto sliding doors (bearing required $ replacement), clogged EGR (poor quality of gas contributed), starter, and now transmission. We bought a Honda for its reliability, but it's important to note that the first model year of an entirely new redesigned vehicle may have some issues.

The transmission failure in my Odyssey is a well-known issue, with every dealer and transmission shop being familiar with it. Despite the 'gray market' status, Honda US has refused to provide any assistance. However, I am confident that this issue is not caused by the fact that all 2000 Odysseys were built in Canada and used in the US. I am determined to resolve this issue and will be reaching out to Tokyo once again.

Vehicle year: 2017
While Honda has had a great reputation in the past, it seems that their quality has fallen and their dealer service centers are struggling. Some customers have reported issues with their brake systems, and unfortunately, Honda has not taken ownership of the problem. Additionally, some customers have reported issues with their factory tires wearing out quickly. We hope that Honda will take steps to address these concerns and improve their products and services.
