The transmission is unreliable. You push the gas and it hesitates to accelerate or switch to the next gear to speed up. It can shake or rattle the car. Has a trouble at low speeds or shifting to the next gear to increase speed. This makes it dangerous to try to pull out into an intersection because the transmission or gear shifting doesn't always hit and you can get hit or injured. This transmission has been weird since the car was new.

I am having the problem with the Honda fuel injector system causing warning lights to go off. This has been a problem for 3 months and I-??ve been told that there is a major supply issue. The problem has gotten so bad that my car keeps going into limp mode bc the transmission warning light is forced on. This is a safety issue.

Car has acceleration issues when making left turns, merging onto freeway, or passing cars on freeway. Transmission and blind spot light went on and we took car to Honda dealer. They could not find anything wrong, no codes were stored and they were not able to duplicate the issue. Scanned vehicle and unable to trace root cause. Updated TCM software which helped for about a month but acceleration issues are now back again. This is a serious safety issue as the car hesitates to accelerate. We have kept up with all car maintenance.

Our van regularly hesitates when to accelerate from a stop. Example, when turning right on red pushing the gas pedal will provide some speed to get into the roadway, then it becomes unresponsive. Letting up and pushing the accelerator will cause the van to move again after about.5 to 1 seconds. Often the accelerator has to be pushed all the way to the floor, which causes the van to move aggressively once it does start to respond causing the tires to spin out. While the performance issue is annoying, this becomes a safety issue when stranded out in traffic.

This vehicle (2018 Honda Odyssey) hesitates when acceleration is attempted after braking. This makes left turns in front of oncoming traffic particularly dangerous. The problem has been widely discussed on Honda/Odyssey online forums. Honda apparently has not acknowledged the problem or warned owners about it. I just missed getting hit with a car full of kids due to acceleration hesitation.

The high pressure fuel pump is not working causing a noise like a motorcycle. took to dealer they advised it is a safety issue. Could cause gas lines to blow out while driving. Part is saying it is discontinued and is on backorder. Honda dealer is the one who diagnosed the problem. No warning no check engine light

On at least 3 occasions, the "Auto Engine Idle Stop" has caused my vehicle to completely die while stopped at a stop light. When the car shuts off/dies, the system prompts you to shift the car in park and restart the car, but on these occasions, the car did not start, leaving me stalled in active traffic. I felt very unsafe to be stalled with no way to operate the vehicle. The dealership checked the battery to ensure it wasn't a battery issue and found it to be completely fine. At the time we did not realize that it could be a problem with the Auto Engine Idle Stop feature, otherwise we would've had them check that system specifically. Further research from other customer forums online prompted us to turn this feature off, but we have to do that every time we start the car. There is no way for us to turn it off permanently. The car gives you no warning that this will happen. When you remove your foot from the break to resume driving, the car shuts off without immediately restarting, leaving you stranded. I am hoping that Honda will issue a recall on affected models. At this point they aren't offering any help other than to tell us to turn it off, but you have to remember to do that every time you start your vehicle.

Auto restart feature when enabled did not restart vehicle after coming to a stop at stoplight on multiple occasions in the last few months rendering vehicle unable to proceed. We recently saw news article about same issue with Pilots.

Merging from west bound I-40 to south bound I-15, there was a slight incline. I accelerated to merge and change lane from 4 to 3, the van suddenly lost power. Engine was running and I could hear it rev up but transmission seemed to not have engaged. The car decelerated to almost 50 mph forcing me to move back to lane 4 in order to avoid being hit by an incoming 18-wheeler. It's most likely an transmission issue of old with Honda. The vehicle regained power after I let go of gas pedal for about 4-5 seconds. It happened again on I-40 near Flagstaff at high speed on my way home to Dallas from SoCal on Jan 2nd. To lose available power to wheels at high rate of speed, it's surely a safety hazzard. I don't feel safe to allow my wife to drive the vehicle. Please help investigate.

Strong odor of gasoline. Gas leaking on to the engine by either the high pressure fuel pump or fuel injectors. Fuel injectors were purported replaced in April of 2021.

There is a chirping coming from the engine area with the engine warmed up AND NOW IS RATTLING UNDER NEATH THE VAN

- Heath, TX, USA

The fuel pipe set, fuel joint connecting the high pressure fuel pump to fuel rail was leaking gasoline. When the car is stopped at a light, the gas vapor would be evident around the front of the car and be pulled into the cabin through the vents when not in recirculation mode. The gasoline vapor odor were clearly evident when walking, standing outside the front of the vehicle. The car could have caught fire with leaking fuel from top of the engine. There were no prior engine repairs done to the vehicle, thus a factory defect. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms prior to the failure. This leak first occurred during a long 7 hour road trip. Dealer confirmed leak and replaced defective pipe set, fuel joint. Saved defective part.

All warning lights popped up when I was driving causing the vehicle to go into a safety mode. Took it to the dealership and had to replace the fuel injectors on a fairly new van!

The 2018 Odyssey has many problems on the fuel injectors system that caused all checking engines lights on. The costs to repair is too expensive. Costs me $1650 at my local Honda dealer

- Garden Grove, CA, USA

All my alerts came on when I started my vehicle this morning. A few weeks ago, the emission light came on - Honda told me to come back if it doesn't turn off in a week. Thought gas tank/new gas issue. Then all alerts came on today. Honda diagnosed as a issue with fuel injectors. Out of warranty. $2,500.

- Bristol, WI, USA

Entire dash turned off while driving including speedometer and information screen-replaced radiohead. All warning lights came on while driving-replaced fuel injectors. Popcorn sound and warning light came on while driving after picking up car from getting fuel injectors replaced-stating it's a bad rear entertainment system. I bought my car 1 year ago and it's obviously flawed.

2018 Honda Odyssey was purchased 3/16/2018 at West Honda dealership located in las vegas. Not long after purchase, strong fuel, and similar chemical odor appeared, odor came out of the air vents directly. The odor is so strong that the vehicle would smell chemical and smoky for days. Odor always appeared during driving, the level of strongness caused nausea, cough, and headache. Addressed the issue to 2 different dealerships, with the mention of health concern and fire risk during driving. Both dealerships' service advisors verified the issue verbally, did diagnosis in 3 out of 4 total visits. Could not find the issue while odor presenting in the car; thus, no repair was done to fix the issue. Reports are collected, filed a complaint to the headquarter. Case manager admitted there is something wrong with the vehicle as similar cases with the same type of vehicle are heard from the same area. Being told that no inspection can be done without odor appears again and ignored the previous visits' results.
