Summaries are quoted verbatim from NHTSA's official campaign records. A single campaign often covers dozens of model years and several nameplates, so a summary may name vehicles other than the 2025 Odyssey — that is normal. Every record listed here carries this vehicle's own make, model and model year in NHTSA's database. Whether a recall is still open on a particular car can only be determined by VIN.

A complaint is an unverified owner report. It is a signal about where to look, not proof of a defect.
Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaint filings on this model year. These are the owners' own words, not our diagnosis, and each one is a single unverified report.
The auto start-stop system fails frequently. If I do not turn off the system, when I stop on red light, the engine turns off as expected. However, it frequently fails to start. The car stalls and it's difficult to turn back on. I need to turn the car off completely first, then try to turn it back on. This usually takes 10-20 seconds. The situation presents a safely hazard as I'm not able to continue to drive through an intersection on a green light. I took the car to dealer 3 times. They were not able to reproduce he issue nor find the cause of the problem

I've now had multiple issues with the car shutting off during auto-idle - pull up to a traffic light and it automatically enters auto-idle. When you let off the brake, the van shuts off. Brought it to the dealer and it happened to them immediately - and the starter was replaced. I thought we were fixed, but it continues to happen (n=4) and Honda says "nothing to do, they've already replaced the starter" since they cant recreate it the day they tried. It most recently happened with my family in the car getting off the interstate and cars behind honking and approaching since we couldnt move th

I've had multiple instances where I would be stopped at a red light, when when the light turned green, the car would not accelerate. I would have to turn the engine completely off and back on. This is a safety issue as I'm sitting in traffic and cars/vehicles behind me are expecting me to go. My fear is that someone not be watching my van but the light and accelerate before I am able to move forward. My son, a mechanic, looked at the vehicle. His suggestion was to replace the battery - the vehicle was purchased March 2025, and should be too soon to have to replace the battery. However,

Vehicle was at a stop light and engine turned off via the automatic idle engine stop. However, when I tried to press the gas the vehicle put itself in park and flashed a battery warning. I had to restart the car 4 times before it would turn back on and drive.

I am providing formal notice of a recurring defect involving my leased 2025 Honda Odyssey Sport-L and requesting prompt investigation and resolution under Honda's warranty and applicable Maryland law, including the Maryland Lemon Law. I leased the vehicle on XXX, with approximately 18 miles. It currently has 17,370 miles and has been maintained at authorized Honda dealerships. The vehicle has repeatedly failed to move from a stopped position. On XXX, Heritage Honda of Westminster documented the issue (Repair Order XXX), recording a flashing "D," inability to shift, a transmission-system warn

The stop-start system that is supposed to idle at lights and when stopped causes the system to completely shut off. This is incredibly dangerous as I have to completely shut the car off and back on. It also eats at the battery so sometimes I have to 'start' multiple times before the engine turns over and actually starts.

When starting the car it takes a long time to officially start. This could leave me stranded. A Honda dealer has confirmed this is an ongoing issue as well as other car shops. It started to appear a few weeks ago. I have video I can send. The auto start stop system has shut the vehicle off in the middle of an intersection which could cause an accident or me being stranded.

At a stop light, car threw a large BRAKE warning and stalled when the foot was taken off the brake. The car then had to put in park and turned off and on again. Having a car die in the middle of traffic, even when at a stop light, is not safe. We took the car to the dealership, where they informed us the starter needed replacement. Prior to this the car has been jerky when coming out of that idle stop feature, but hasn't stalled. The BRAKE warning did flash on the screen earlier that day but the car didn't stall.
