2020 HONDA ODYSSEY Complaints

WHEN I BOUGHT THE VAN USED IN 2023 AT A DEALERSHIP, THEY WERE WORKING ON THE TAILGATE OF THE VAN. THEY STATED IT WAS A FACTORY DEFAULT THAT THE MODULE HAD. THEY DID NOT GO INTO FURTHER DETAIL. I STARTED GETTING A MESSAGE ON THE DASH PANEL THAT THE POWER TAILGATE SYSTEM HAD A PROBLEM. i ALSO GOT MESSAGES STATING THE THEE REVERSE COLLISION SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING, TRANSMISSION SYSTEM HAD PROBLEMS, THE KEYLESS STARTING SYSTEM PROBLEMS. THIS WAS HAPPENING AFTER A RAIN OCCURANCE. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER, THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS. i TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE FOUND WATER IS GETTING THRU THE ROOF RACK RAIL GULLEY, LEAKING DOWN THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE INTERIOR PANEL ON TO THE TAILGATE CONTROL MODULE. i HAVE TO TAKE THE VAN TO A BODY SHOP, SO THEY CAN FIX THE AFFECTED AREA. i HAVE THE PART MY MECHANIC REPLACED. IT IS CLEARLY WATER DAMAGED. THE DAY HE FIXED MY VAN, IT HAD RAINED AND MALFUNCTIONED AGAIN. RIGHT NOW I HAVE THE MODULE HANGING IN THE CARGO AREA, OUTSIDE OF THE INTERIOR PANEL, SO IT DOES NOT GET WET WHEN IT RAINS.

UNKNOWN. Auto engine idle stop was enabled when the vehicle was at a complete stop. Upon disengaging, the engine stalled and took a couple minutes to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was located in a highway that caused traffic delay and safety concerns. This has happened more than once.

+ What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The front camera, which plays a crucial role in the functioning of the Lane Keep Assist System (LKAS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Collision Avoidance system, and Auto High Beam, malfunctioned. This camera is integral to these systems. +How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The malfunction of the front camera caused critical systems like LKAS, ACC, Collision Avoidance, and Auto High Beam to operate unpredictably. This compromised vehicle control, leading to unintended lane departures, unsafe following distances, and potential collision risks. The Auto High Beam system also failed to adjust correctly, creating visibility hazards for both myself and other drivers. +Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The issue has been confirmed by a dealer, front camera malfunctioned and need to be replaced for $2000.

My 2020 Honda Odyssey is exhibiting problems with the infotainment system. The system will reboot randomly, disabling all functionality of the rear back-up camera, the audio system, the clock, and all other associated features of the "infotainment" system. The screen will display "NETWORK CONNECTION LOST" and "MOST NET OFF" prior to unprompted reboot. System will reboot continuously following failure. Issue is ongoing for the past few months. This issue is the exact issue covered by the NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V439000. Possibly covered under 20V440000. Other 2020 Honda Odyssey vehicles are covered by this recall, however my VIN was not covered. I called Honda, and was not assisted in the slightest with the issue. I am requesting my VIN be added to the recall list, and/or Honda be penalized for improperly identifying vehicles with the affected issue. As it can prevent the rearview camera image from displaying, this vehicle fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 101, "Control and Displays" and 111, "Rearview Mirrors."

This model has had a recall of the wire being to short and having faulty connections. I have replaced the wires module now 5 times . The last time it got replaced after a couple of months the screen on the car has gone blank and now they tell me the whole computer needs to be replaced. No LCD and no backup screen . This is absolutely ridiculous . Anything that can be done this car seems to be a electrical disaster.

Rear door would not open with key fob, button on the dash or the button on the rear door. Then it randomly opened one morning and would not close. Through research I found out there is a problem with water leakage, the vehicle is not properly sealed. Resulting in a damage MICU. I was able to replace the MICU and the rear door works now. I believe this is a safety concern, how can I drive with the door not latching. When I unplugged the MICU water poured out and you can see rust in the fender well where the MICU sits.

Drove to grocery store, did not have any codes, when I got back in my car and restarted I received these 5 errors: Adaptive Cruise Control Auto High Beam Problem Lane Keeping Assist Problem Collision Mitigation System Problem Road Departure Mitigation System Problem

The multicamera display unit is defective. It operates several systems and cause multiple warning issues. I believe the design is flawed. In addition to the warnings, both the display for driving information ( speed, rpm, temp, etc.) go blank and the AV unit (radio, entertainment, etc) shuts off too.

On multiple occasions, after stopping the vehicle (for example at a red light), the engine would stop and not restart. After several minutes of frantically trying to restart the vehicle in dangerous situations (stopped in the middle of traffic and nearly rear ended multiple times), the vehicle would eventually start the engine. Bottom line - when stopping at a stop sign or red light, the vehicle turns off the engine and does not restart properly - placing all occupants in a dangerous situation.

It won’t let me select all of the issues, but the entire list of the advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) is wrong with my car
