Safety score
80/100
Low recall-severity risk Lower recall-severity risk than 80% of vehicles we track.

The Honda Odyssey scores 80 out of 100 (grade A), one of the cleaner recall records among the vehicles we track. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 62% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 26% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.

Those 39 campaigns span 17 model years of the Honda Odyssey. The single largest affected 2,490,460 vehicles, over fuel system. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing. Beyond recalls, you can also see the most common Odyssey problems owners report and its crash-test safety ratings.

The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Honda Odyssey may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.

How many times has the Honda Odyssey been recalled?
