2025 HONDA ODYSSEY Complaints

Stopped at light. Car turned off per the start/ stop feature. Removed foot from brake and pressed gas pedal, car started but brake light came on and continued to flash. Had to pull over and stop before light would stop flashing and go away.

The contact owns a 2025 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake pedal was depressed, however the auto idle did not function as intended. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed battery. The contact was informed that the battery needed to be replaced. The failure reoccurred. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle stalled, and the engine shut off. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start. The contact stated that after several attempts, the vehicle started. In addition, the contact stated that when the auto idle feature was disabled, the failure did not occur. The vehicle was scheduled for diagnostic testing within the next few days. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 100.

Vehicle has stopped running multiple times while at stop signs or traffic lights when engine is at idle and not running. The vehicle has to be restarted to go after shutting off while in traffic. It is very concerning when this happens in live traffic. The dealer has had the vehicle for days and were not able to replicate what happened. Asked me for more information on what was being used when it happened. They say they ran tests and were unable to get any codes to show what might have happened. The only thing I have seen was reports that the idle stop feature was unavailable previously. Not sure when that happened? This has happened at least 6 different times, last time being May 8th 2026.

I have encountered several instances where the vehicle goes idle at a spot light as expected. However the vehicle fails to restart when letting off the brake. Instead, the vehicle shifts into park. Once the vehicle shifts into park, I am unable to shift into drive. I must restart the vehicle and try en shift into drive. This is extremely dangerous and has happened multiple times. This vehicle is one year old and has 9k miles.

The screen goes black, doesn't turn on, or it stalls out and will not let you do anything and has a hard time connecting to phones at all

Engine would not restart after the idle stop at a traffic light. I needed to put the car in park and turn the engine off and restart it. Shortly after this, at another traffic light, the idle stop caused a delayed restart of the engine and caused the vehicle to lurch forward suddenly. This has happened once before as well.

Auto start stop not working. This is happening quite a lot where there auto stop in activated and then the car wont start back. Resulting in the car having to be completely restarted.

We've been experiencing issues with the Auto Idle Stop feature (the auto restart in particular). On multiple occasions, the vehicle will automatically turn off the engine while stopped in traffic, but will fail to start back up, requiring the driverto manually turn the vehicle off and back on via push button starter (sometimes multiple restarts is necessary to get it moving again). This seems VERY similar to the investigation referenced under - EA25004.
