2019 Honda Odyssey complaints

The front multifunction windshield camera module failed due to a hot day. The cruise control, lane departure, collision mitigation, and other advanced driver safety assists are completely non functional. These are key safety features for ourselves and others. It has been confirmed by technicians, and many other owners of vehicle this model and generation with the same problem. It hasn't been inspected by the manufacturer. Many warning indications came on during startup and all the systems stated above stopped working. They haven't worked sense. This same thing happened about 2 years ago on this same van. This is a very common issue with this vehicle model and year. The manufacturer needs to issue recall for it.

Traveling from appointment to home, vehicle started to rattle from engine, could not accelerate and shut off in the middle of the roadway. We couldn’t start the engine and “emission system failure “ message appeared for the first time. Prior to the event, we did not have any issues with starting, operating the vehicle and no warning lights on the dash. Police arrived to block traffic and ordered the tow to the dealership. Honda did a diagnostic for 240.00. Results were they found metal shavings in the oil and the engine needed to be replaced. We were surprised due to the fact that we just had a full synthetic oil change within the past month and no reports of metal in the oil were reported. Honda stated that recall 23V-751 addressed this issue but our VIN was not listed for coverage. Only choice is to replace the engine assembly, quoted $9,000.00. We are just thankful this issue didn’t result in any accidents or injuries when it reduced power and unexpectedly stalled on a city road. We are 1st owners and have had all services done professionally, per the maintenance schedule. It’s a 2019 Honda Odyssey Touring with 70000 miles. No prior notice or poor performance. Honda confirmed it was an internal bearing failure. Vehicle is available for inspection, currently waiting on engine replacement to arrive. Honda did complete the recall for fuel pump replacement that was needed.

1. The multipurpose camera, which is needed for the ADAS to function has malfunctioned. Yes, it is available for inspection request. 2. The malfunctioning multipurpose camera caused the advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) to perform unreliably. Features such as lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and collision warning either stopped working or provided false alerts. This created unpredictable driving conditions, as I could not rely on the systems to detect other vehicles, maintain lane position, or warn of potential collisions. The issue increased the risk of an accident for me and for other drivers or pedestrians, especially in traffic or on highways. Upon doing some research, it seems clear that this is a wide-spread problem, which Honda has not issued a recall about. 3. Yes, this has been reproduced and confirmed by a dealer. 4. No, it has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance rep. 5. No, there were not any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms prior to the failure

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.

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.

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.

Connecting rod bearings rattling at 72000 miles on my 209 Honda Odyssey. Loss of power.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving 65 MPH on the highway and driving over a bump in the road, the side curtain air bags and the passenger’s seat air bag deployed. The contact linked the failure to NHTSA Action Number: PE25018 (Air Bags). There were no reported injuries. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was taken to a collision center, which determined there was no impact to the vehicle or internal failure. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that the air bag might deploy at 26 MPH. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.

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.

Ton of warning messages. On the Honda online forum you can find hundreds of people with the same problem

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.

Multipurpose Camera failed at 110000 miles. This causes deactivation of the Lane Keep Assist, Collision Mitigation, Road Departure Mitigation, Auto High Beam and cruise control systems. The primary advanced safety features of the vehicle are disabled due to this issue. Issue has been reported to the dealer and they state that it is a common issue, but no recall or TSB for it yet. Warning lights come up on the dash every time the vehicle is turned on.

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.

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 t

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.

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.

Started up the van and the following appears on the dash: ACC problem Collision Mitigation Problem Lake Keep Assist Problem Auto High Beam Problem Safety features unavailable when driving vehicle. In my research this issue has occurred with other owners of the vehicle as well.

After we took the car in all of a sudden randomly these warning lights will come on and my D for drive keeps flashing. LKAS, ACC, Collision Avoidance, Auto High Beam Problem And brake system warning. Sometimes some of them sometimes all of them. I read it’s a common problem but there hasn’t been a recall on it.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while her son was driving at 70 MPH, he crashed into a deer. The air bags did not deploy. After investigation, the contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V064000 (Air Bags). A police report was filed. There was no reported fire. The driver struck his head on the steering wheel and sustained head injuries, and medical attention was provided on the military base. While driving, the vehicle stalled at the entrance of the military base. The vehicle was towed to an auto body repair facility. The vehicle was being recalibrated. The air bag light was illuminated. The mechanic determined there was an issue with the seat belt pretensioner. The mechanic determined that the air bag sensor was not hit during the crash. The contact called the local dealer, who confirmed there were no recalls. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was approximately 77,000. The VIN was not available.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact previously received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the fuel pump module was replaced. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle did not need to be restarted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 103,000.

Main windsheild camera failed.

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.

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.

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

My Honda Odyssey does phantom braking once in a while. There are no vehicle in front of it but it still brakes. One time it brake till full stop from 40 miles per hour.

Front monocular camera failed for no particular reason. Very unsafe.

Something is wrong with the camera and causing all warnings to go off.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? passenger side sliding door not functioning while vehicle turn on. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? passenger on my vehicle can't exit out the vehicle in case of emergency. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? none. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? none. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? none.

Camera has failed disabling all the safety features associated and also the cruise control.

Center camera has gone out. Millions of vans in the same position as me.

Please failure of windshield camera 36160 thr a11 has malfunctioned IDAS

My daughter was injured when the third row, far right side seat belt malfunctioned, and she became entrapped. My daughter had fallen asleep in the seat and lay a little sideways resting on a sibling buckled in the center seat. When she arrived home the belt was very tight, and would not undo. She tried to get out and the seat belt auto retractor mechanism was working making it harder to move and then impossible. We reclined the seat a little to try and pull her out and this didn’t help. We also tried removing pieces of clothing and pulling her out to no avail. By this time our child was in pain as the belt was cutting into her waist. Neighbors came out of their homes due to the screaming, this was evening time so felt no option but to cut the belt and release her. This event was very frightening and distressing for our family. We do not understand how the auto retractor and buckle mechanisms malfunctioned but worry it may happen again. We have read similar accounts on the Honda forums. The staff were not helpful or concerned about this malfunction despite a mechanic at Honda acknowledging this has happened before. I would like to formally lodge my concerns over this incident.

Multipurpose camera failure, all advanced safety systems were affected (Adaptive Cruise, Lane Keep Assist, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Warning, Auto-dim headlights, etc) Also, caused engine light, brake system and transmission system errors to appear but they were cleared by replacing the camera with no apparent damage to the actual systems. Replaced at a dealership for a total cost for parts and labor $2200+.

Front windshield camera failed and available for inspection if needed. All safety features tied to this camera are now disabled. Even basic cruise control is disabled. Problem has been check by a dealer with an estimated cost of $2600 to repair a simple camera module. Not inspected by police but was inspected by the manufactures dealer. I can get it inspected by the police if it helps. There are several warning lights that come up after starting the car. Even dinging when backing out of the driveway causing distractions. This is a known issue for this year Honda Odyssey van. There are lots of posts about it and how to try and fix it without the dealer charging you 10% of the cost of a 2025 model. For something designed for families this is not what I expected. This vehicles safety is impacted by the removal of these features.

Vehicle has code U3000-49 in the MCU module. All vehicle safety systems have shut down and are no longer working until vehicle is repaired (lane assist, collision mitigation, adaptive cruise control, road departure, etc.) Multiplex Camera Unit is on national back order with no ETA available. Vehicle has 5 warning lights and multiple messages that keeping popping up on the cluster.

Read Driver side power sliding door, got stuck halfway open. I've had this happen on the passenger side as well, but after turning the car off, putting power doors to manual, and rocking it back and forth, I got it fixed no problem and ended up having to replace a bump sensor on the door and it resolved. I thought that's what was going on when it happened to my driver side door as well. However after I turned the car off, and turned the doors to manual it still wouldn't close. I turned them back to automatic, turned the car back on, and the door proceeded to start going back, it rocked violently then broke the rear window and before stopping again. I read this track roller has been a problem for MANY users of this van and in some cases the entire door has fallen off because of it.

The powertrain jumps sometimes it is not smooth.The brakes does not hold too good.

Multi-Purpose camera unit internal electronic failure. Front-facing camera mounted in the windshield. This caused several warning lights including the brake system warning light to illuminate. This failure caused the automatic brake system and other safety features in the car to turn off. The vehicle has been inspected by a mechanic. There were no other warning signs.

The forward facing camera has failed. A myriad of systems are dependent upon functionality of camera including collision mitigation braking, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, forward collision warning, cruise control, and automatic lighting and high beams. The failure also prompts a transmission system failure, though it's unclear how/why that system would be related. All issues are prompted by warning lights on the dash and the systems are inoperable. Research of the issue suggests it's a common failure across Odyssey and CR-V models with front-facing cameras and related safety systems.

Got my windshield replaced. Was recalibrated. Within 3 months, 5 dash lights come on. 1. Adaptive Cruise Control Problem 2. Lane Keep Assist Problem 3. Collision Mitigation System Problem 4. Road Departure Mitigation System Problem 5. Auto High-Beam Problem And the Brake System light is on. I was told it wasn’t the new windshield and that recalibration wouldn’t fix the problem. The code that won’t clear is U3000-49

Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) My 2019 Honda Odyssey slammed on the brakes while traveling 70+ MPH on a clear freeway. There was no warning and nothing in the road. I have also had issues with the braking warning light flashing for no reason while traveling down the roadway. I called the Honda dealership and inquired about the braking issues and was told unfortunately it can happen, especially if I drive on windy roads.

The Camera Assembly Monocular (part 36160-THR-A81) is shorted out causing multiple safety system failures from collision warning, lane departure, emergency braking, etc. Confirmed by local mechanic and then Honda dealer (Merrillville, IN). I still have the part, not yet replaced. Quoted $2K to replace. While driving multiple warning lamps went off and cruise control disengaged. No signs of issues prior to this occurrence. Now none of the safety features related to the ADAS system work.

While traveling in my 2019 Honda Odyssey (40,000 mile) the vehicle completely shut off and placed itself into neutral. The warning lights for emissions system problem, brake problem, and parking assist problem lit up on the dashboard. The vehicle went into neutral and would not allow me to drive at all. Then the vehicle shut off all within 30 seconds. The vehicle would then not restart and now i have to get the vehicle towed to the Honda Service Department. After looking through other complaints there is a known recall for manufacturer defected fuel injectors for my year model odyssey but does not appear when i search for recalls. This was an insanely dangerous situation here in Oahu where the traffic is very bad. The vehicle gave no warning or check engine light and we have completed every service for the vehicle. The vehicle just randomly completely shut off and would not restart leaving my family of 5 stranded.

The van's LKAS camera has malfunctioned. This has disabled not only LKAS but cruise control, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind spot warning, lane departure warning, and rear cross traffic. There is also a brake system failure light active on the digital dashboard. The failure of the LKAS camera has affected numerous Honda vehicles, not only the Odyssey, and across many model years. The part is available for inspection; #36160-THR-A81. The failure of the component has disabled key federally required safety features of the vehicle. The problem has been inspected by a Honda dealership. The repair cost is over $2,000. No warning lights nor error messages appeared before the failure of the component. It's demise presented as an intermittent error for 2 months before becoming permanent.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. Additionally, the vehicle stalled with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the recall repair was performed. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact was informed that the failure was possibly due to a failed fuel pump module. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact was informed that the repair was not covered under warranty or recall. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

On our 2019 Honda Odyssey the passenger sliding door is failing to latch closed and stay closed or locked. The door is popped out in the back because the latch mechanism will not engage and electronically lock as part of the normal closing sequence like the other door. From what I can tell, this is the same issue reported in Service Bulletin 18-128, however when I called Honda about it, they said my VIN was not included in that recall. I am concerned because it seems like the same problem and it creates an unsafe situation where the door is not fully latching, even when manually closing the door and trying to lock it. I can hear excessive noise from that side of the vehicle, and the warning message flashed saying there is an issue with the Right Side Sliding door, and the dome lights come on with an audible warning tone. I am unable to put passengers in the back of the van and needed to be very careful when driving it to the dealership for diagnosis yesterday. I'm still waiting to hear from them. I think this issue should be covered under recall work, since it seem like it is the same issue described in the service bulletin 18-128.

Multipurpose camera is defective. The camera is available for inspection upon request. A number of safety features do not work when this camera is not operational, including forward collision warning and lane departure warning. Honda dealership performed a diagnostic and confirmed it needs to be replaced. No other parties have inspected the camera. There were no warning messages prior to the camera failing, only after it had failed. This appears to be a common issue affecting many owners of this vehicle.

Over the last year, recorded 13 incidences where car would not accelerate. (It occurred more times, but I did not record it). I wrote down date, time, weather, gas level, temperature, and what the car would not do. Each incidence was the same - the car would not accelerate, despite pressing down (strongly) on the gas pedal. The car would then jerk forward suddenly. This provided concern and danger as it was often as I was trying to turn off a side road, onto a main road (state highway). This often needs to be done quickly as traffic approaches from both sides. There were a couple of instances when a car was approaching and the vehicle appeared to just stop in the intersection before finally picking up. I have definitely had concerns regarding being hit by oncoming traffic. I brought the vehicle in to Honda to assess in ~May/June 2023. They could not replicate the problem and ended up returning the vehicle without any noted actions. I began taking note of when this occurred starting 6/1/2024, and have 13 recorded incidences.

The contact owned a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH, the vehicle suddenly decelerated to 45 MPH, and failed to properly accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent and was self-corrected after each failure. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer on several occasions, but no fault codes were retrieved, and the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact was made aware of NHTSA Action Number: PE25008 (ENGINE). The failure mileage was 33,000.

In August of 2024, I started up my 2019 Honda Odyssey one morning and all the vehicle safety alerts/warnings on the dashboard came on (adaptive cruise control problem, lane keeping assist problem, collision mitigation system problem, road departure mitigation system problem, auto high-beam problem, ABS). I took the vehicle into my local Honda dealership and they ran a diagnostic which determined that the forward looking camera was faulty and needs to be replaced. There were previously no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure of the camera. The dealer's quote to replace the camera was $1,528.99 at the time. Having since researched this issue further on Honda owner forums, this seems to be a common problem with this generation of Honda vehicles. As evidenced by the corresponding warning messages, the failure of the front camera causes an array of vehicle safety issues impacting the driver and passengers, other vehicles and pedestrians. This defect, which is an extremely cost-prohibitive repair for the consumer, should be addressed and corrected by the manufacturer as soon as possible. The vehicle is available for further inspection upon request. Please note that I was unable to select all the applicable Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) under the Problem Parts section of this form.
