Buying a used 2020 Honda Passport? Check these 10 recalls first
Ten recalls, led by a critical tire failure recall shared with the Pilot. High-severity items include the fuel pump stalling recall, two seat-sensor airbag recalls, and rear frame rust-through. Several are lower-stakes: blank dashboard and backup camera issues, side mirror glass, and a weight-rating label that can wipe off. NHTSA shows 100 unverified owner complaints, most in forward collision avoidance and electrical system, with one crash and no fires or injuries reported.
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.
- Ask which tires are on it and if the recall was addressed
- Inspect rear frame and underbody for corrosion
- Confirm both seat-sensor airbag recalls closed by VIN
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Honda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
