What 876 owners told NHTSA about the 2019 Honda Odyssey

Fuel pump injector needs to be replaced at approximately 68,000 miles. Honda issued an extended warranty on fuel pump injectors for 2018-2019 models but refuses to cover replace it. Check engine light came on due to injector failure. This poses an extreme safety risk.

The fuel injectors failed for the exact same reason as other VINs that Honda issued an extended warranty for. The fuel injectors failed without warning and went into limp mode. The vehicle barely moved in rush hour in an unfamiliar city with very busy traffic. I reached out to Honda and they could not provide an explanation as to why the warranty wasn't extended for the fuel injectors like they were for other VINs. In my opinion, Honda knows there is an issue, but has decided not to do anything about it. Hopefully, NHTSA can help with this potential safety issue. The dealer replaced the fuel injectors due them failing and the injectors are available for inspection.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle suddenly lost automotive power. No warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer where it remains, where it was diagnosed with a fuel pump failure. The vehicle was not repaired due to the costs. In addition, the contact stated that the vehicle was previously repaired at another local dealer under NHTSA Campaign: 21V215000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, it did not prevent a failure from occurring. Upon further investigation, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign:23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

Fuel injector failure in exact manner described in TSB 21-010 and code P219A. The Emissions error is exactly matching TSB 21-010. Honda states that the VIN number is outside of scope and is requesting an out of pocket repair. According to many online complaints, the VIN numbers need to be expanded.

When picking my child up from school, upon departure, the front end of the vehicle began violently shaking and sounding as if it wanted to shut down, simultaneously, a number of system failure warnings displayed on the dash. I was able to get the vehicle into a parking spot and turn it off. It would not restart. I called a tow truck and had it towed to a local garage as it was not safe to drive even if it did start. Upon the local mechanic pulling codes, they pulled the code P0087 indicating a failure of the fuel system, gasoline: delivery: Fuel pump. This incident put myself, my 3 children in the vehicle as well as other pedestrian children and adult pedestrians at great risk, because if I had lost control and not been able to park safely, the outcome may have been extremely different. The problem has been confirmed by local mechanic and is scheduled with the dealer in 5 days. There were no prior warnings or indications of the failure. Honda issued a recall in 2021 then closed it. It was later expanded by NHTSA in 2024. Then again closed. We never received notification of the recall either time. recall numbers follow: 21V-21520V-314 expanded recall: 23V-858/Honda TSB 24-022 Both, Im told are closed, which is unfathomable to me given the significant and known dangers attributed to this issue.

On May 2nd, we drove our 2019 Honda Odyssey XL-E to church, and as soon as we pulled into the parking lot, we started to see smoke coming from our front hood. We exited the car. Within 30 seconds, the car then went into flames, and exploded and the car is now unsalvageable. When I went online, it seems like this is a common occurrence with these Honda Odysseys. There were no warming lamps, messages, or lights that would have alerted me that something this serious would occur. We have taken our care to Honda for years for regular maintenance. We don't take it to any independent shops. Strictly to Honda for years. The most recent checkup/service was performed on February 11, 2026 where they performed the following services which they had recommended. 1) Oil Change 2)Engine coolant flush with conditioner 3)Transmission fluid change: 4) wheel alignment 5)Fuel tank additive, throttle body service, and injector. This is serious safety event and our family and children could have been killed in this accident. We have pictures, videos, police report, and the car has been taken to a salvage yard. We have filed a claim with State Farm.

[Incident Description & Manufacturer's Bad Faith] On April 6, 2026, an authorized Honda dealership (McConnell Honda in Montgomery, AL) diagnosed my vehicle (2019 Honda Odyssey EX-L, 143,097 miles) with DTC P219A (Rec replacing fuel injector set and fuel feed pipe at this time), requiring a fuel injector replacement. This exact mechanical failure is documented in Honda’s official Service Bulletin 21-010. The bulletin acknowledges that defective fuel injectors can cause engine misfires, loss of motive power, and engine stalling while driving. These conditions present an immediate and severe safety hazard. Honda established a 150,000-mile warranty extension limit for this defect in TSB 21-010. My vehicle has 143,097 miles and is well within this limit. However, American Honda Corporation has arbitrarily refused to repair the vehicle. Furthermore, on April 21, 2026, the assigned Honda Case Manager left a voicemail officially denying the repair. He explicitly refused my repeated requests to provide this denial in writing. In the voicemail, he falsely stated that my vehicle at 143,000 miles is "well outside the range" for assistance, directly contradicting Honda's own written 150,000-mile bulletin. Please review the attached documents, including the official dealership diagnostic report (DTC P219A), the repair estimate, and a copy of TSB 21-010. I have also secured the audio recording of the case manager's voicemail to prove their bad faith. Honda is knowingly leaving a dangerous vehicle with a confirmed, documented fuel system defect on the road, while actively providing false information to the consumer to avoid repair costs. I strongly request the NHTSA to investigate Honda's deceptive and dangerous practice.

My car issues a emissions systems problem, upon bringing it to the dealer it was identified that the fuel injector system failed. This is a known issue with 2019 Honda Odysseys. Upon running the VIN on my vehicle, it was found it does not qualify under the extended warranty even though this is a known issue.

I was driving to work on April 7th, 2026 and parked the vehicle at my company parking lot. Prior to parking, I noticed unusual smell and then parked the vehicle. I parked the vehicle around 8.10 am and I got the call from my facilities manager around 8.30-8.40 am that my car caught on fire and by that time I noticed Houston Fire Department extinguishing the fire. There were no check engine sign and this vehicle is a brand new vehicle when I purchased. Though there is no recall associated with my VIN #, the fire issue is similar to recalls for 2019 Honda Odysey. The recall numbers are 23V-751( Engine Fire Recall) & 20V-066 ( Electrical Wiring fire Recall)

"Emissions system problem" engine warning light has been on for quite some time. I know there is a service bulletin related to this issue, but my VIN is not covered. There are also several other warning lights that occasionally pop up, and my Honda dealer believes these are all related to the initial warning light. They mentioned that sometimes these systems start shutting down so the vehicle runs properly. Recently I received "transmission system prolem" (in conjunction with the slew of warning lights I have frequently been getting). No apparent issues until recently when I was driving on the interstate. The engine started to become very loud and when I looked at the RPMs it was very high, over 5,000 RPMs. The car wasn't shifting out of first gear at 55MPH. I immediately slowed down and got off the interstate as soon as possible. After arriving home, we unhooked the battery, re-installed, and all of the warning lights were gone. Again, the Honda dealer believes all of these issues were realted to the "emissions system problem", which is part of a service bulletin that should be covered by warranty extension. I beleive my VIN should be included, and the recent transmission system problem which happened on the interstate was very dangerous and could have ended very badly, had I not been in tune with what was happening.

The fuel injectors emaeem to be malfunctioning and the OBD for emissions is lighting up. It has been inspected by the dealer and confirmed it needs to be replaced. The OBD code is P219A and this causes misfire and potential stalling of the vehicle. Honda has issued several TSBs but none have my VIN. Some of the TSBs are TSB A18-025, TSB A21-010 and TSB ONLN9403292021. It has been inspected by Honda dealer and confirmed to be a issue but no action unless I pay them a lot of money. I would like to see if NHTSA can help to add my vin number to the list or help me get Honda to repair my vehicle.

I went to my van, and many alerts were going off on the dash about multiple systems failing and not working. I got the van to the dealer who said it was the fuel injectors that needed replaced. I found a service bulletin about this saying American Honda is extending the warranty on the fuel injection repairs to 10 years from the original date of purchase or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. The dealer said there was not a recall on my vin and there was nothing they could do and I was forced to pay for the repairs.

Vehicle intermittently loses propulsion during acceleration when merging. Engine RPM remains low despite throttle input. After a delay, transmission re-engages abruptly with a metallic scraping noise. This creates unsafe merging conditions. This happened today, 2/14/2026 in 4 instances in the same trip. It has also occurred approximately 50 other times over the past six months when the mileage was as low as 66,100 miles.

My 2019 Honda Odyssey had an emissions code come up with OBD II sensor code of P219A which led to research revealing that the code was a result of fuel injector failure. I took my van to the dealer who revealed that based on my VIN, I am not eligible for the extended warranty issued by Honda in 2021. This has resulted in a $1900.00 repair bill that should be covered based on history and problems. ref: [XXX] and [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Life-Threatening Acceleration Lag: The vehicle is experiencing severe power loss during critical driving moments, for example, while entering intersections or attempting to re-accelerate into moving traffic. When I attempt to speed up, the engine fails to respond initially, leaving the vehicle stranded in the path of cross-traffic. The engine finally engages only because I am forced to floor the accelerator pedal out of necessity, which then causes the tires to squeal when power eventually returns. Intermittent Starting Issues: The vehicle frequently fails to start smoothly on the first attempt; a known symptom associated with the fuel pump impeller deformation described in Recall 23V-858. VCM Shudder and Hesitation: I am experiencing the distinct vibration and rhythmic shudder associated with the Variable Cylinder Management system. This symptom is most prominent during deceleration or coasting; specifically, when I lift my foot off the accelerator without applying the brakes, the system triggers a noticeable shudder as it incorrectly manages cylinder engagement/deactivation. Suspected Catalytic Failure (Codes P0420/P0430): Both catalytic converters are exhibiting inefficiency codes simultaneously, which are highly atypical and occur well before the expected component lifespan. This clearly points to upstream defects. Specifically, the catalytic substrate has been poisoned by carbon and phosphorus deposits from the documented oil-burning defect and has suffered thermal damage due to the improper fuel mixtures caused by the defective high-pressure fuel pump (Recall 23V-858).

Service engine light has been lit up and it says “emissions system problem”. I have had it tested at the shop and it states code P219A (air-fuel ratio variation of cylinder [bank 1, rear bank) which I am told has a warranty extension from Honda for 10 years or 150k miles. I am told my VIN does not quality. If other 2019 Odyssey’s have the same issue and qualify, why doesn’t mine? The fuel injectors are clogging and failing way too early for 66k miles. This has been going on for around 6 months Safety concerns - Potential engine failure, reduced performance, and increased emissions

A MIL warning was displayed for Emissions System Problem flaging our vehicle for emissions testing and registration. The vehicle skips and does not accelerate well from 20-30mph making turns into a busy street unsafe. The computer reads a DTC of P219A. All of this matches the description in Honda Service Bulletin 21-010 which says it covers 2019 Odyssey of all trim levels. Local Honda dealer (Auto Nation Honda of Chandler in Chandler, AZ) and Honda America both refuse to extend this warenty to our vehicle for repairs. We took it to a third party Honda mechanic for a second opinion and they recommended we follow up on the Service Bulletin 21-010.

While parked on Saturday, 9 different warnings popped up including Fuel Emission Issue and Brake Issue. Tried to restart the car and failed. Came back later with a jump start kit assuming it was battery related. Car started up fine and drove it on the highway for 30 minutes. The 9 warnings were still present. Continued using the car on Sunday on 30 minute highway drive without issue. Monday morning noticed the warnings were gone. Continued use. Around noon the warnings came back and the car refused to start. Used a jump start kit to get the engine started, but it could only go about 10mph. Attempting to push the accelerator further would stutter the car. Managed to get it to a shop where they diagnosed the fuel pump motor had failed. They told me that the part was listed in a recall. I looked up the NHTSA number - 23V858000. However, my VIN was not included in the recall.

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.
