Buying a used 2025 Honda Odyssey? Check these 2 recalls first
Only two recalls so far, both high severity: wheelchair-van restraints that may not lock, and a seat sensor that can cause unintended airbag deployment. What stands out is complaint volume — 355 unverified owner reports to NHTSA, far above the earlier Odyssey years, dominated by electrical system (189) and engine (188), with two crashes and seven injuries reported. These are unverified filings, and a recent model year can accumulate reports before any recall action follows.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Check for open recalls by VIN, including newly added ones
- Ask about engine or electrical symptoms and dealer visits
- Review service history for repeat trips on the same fault
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Honda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
