general problems of the 2019 Honda Odyssey - part 1

Fuel injectors need replaced at 130000 miles electronic touchscreen ac blower cuts out comes back on for no reason.

The vehicle experiences frequent and unpredictable loss of acceleration when starting from a stop. The issue is intermittent and difficult to reproduce under specific conditions. At times, when the accelerator is pressed, the vehicle fails to respond or moves only slightly. Even when additional pressure is applied to the accelerator, there may be little to no response, followed by a sudden and forceful surge forward, as if the accelerator had been fully depressed. I understand that fuel-pump recalls have been issued for certain vehicles of this make, model, and year; however, my vehicle's VIN is not currently included. Based on the symptoms and the severity of the issue, I believe my vehicle warrants further investigation to determine whether it should be included in the recall. This problem first began in 2020, following my purchase of the vehicle in 2019, and has repeatedly created dangerous driving situations. When attempting to cross oncoming traffic from a stopped position, the vehicle's failure to accelerate presents a serious risk of a broadside collision. On multiple occasions, my wife has been left stranded in the middle of an intersection because the vehicle failed to respond to the accelerator. Given the persistent nature of this issue and the significant safety risk it presents to the driver, passengers, and other motorists, I am requesting a thorough investigation into the cause of this malfunction and a review of whether my vehicle should be covered under the applicable fuel-pump recall or receive other appropriate corrective action.

Van is throwing p219a error code, this seems to be a known issue but Honda says my VIN isn’t covered, though I see other 2019 Odyssey owners have had the same issue and issue with extended warranty coverage.

When I go from a dead stop, it 7/10 times has a long hesitation before going. Sometimes its up to 5 seconds of hesitation. I've almost been hit crossing oncoming traffic. I have mentioned it to the Honda mechanics who say they don't see it when testing. I'm always afraid it's going to stall. Also, sometimes when I let off of the gas it almost feels like a brake is being applied as I approach a stop. I've changed the transmission fluid and used gas additives to no avail. I see some models of Odyssey had a recall for this but for some reason not mine.

When trying to accelerate from a stop or slow roll velocity (e. G. At a yield sign), there is a hesitation between the time I press on the accelerator and when the vehicle moves. This becomes a hazard because if there is a delay in acceleration, I could be hit by oncoming traffic. The fuel pump had been previously recalled because of an impeller issue. At that time, the same thing would happen. Hesitation in acceleration. After the fuel pump was replaced (done early 2025 on my vehicle), that symptom was better but in the last few months, it has returned and is increasing in frequency. It happened today as I was driving 9/22/2026 but it was not the first time. It has been ongoing for months now so I decided to finally report it. I feel that this is related to previous NHTSA recall campaign id number 23v858000.

Faulty fuel injectors. Causes code p0219a.

Emissions system code popping up. Car smells of fasoline.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? - fuel injectors - they can be inspected in needed how was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - this issue can cause issues with the engine and ultimately make the vehicle unsafe to operate. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? this is a known issue with Honda vehicles including the Odyssey for 2019. There is a service bulletin 21-010 that mentioned the issue but only covers some vins but this is an issue with other vins that the dealer refuses to cover. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? a check engine light will come on.

When driving the vehicle it always has a lag in acceleration when pressing on the gas pedal. There are numerous times I can press the gas pedal and the car will not move. I've taken back to the dealer to see what their service department says.

By August 1, 2026, the check-engine light was on in my 2019 Honda Odyssey. I reported that the light was steady and the van was running normally, with no noticeable drivability problems. On August 31, 2026, at 141,126 miles, an authorized Honda dealer recorded dtc p0430, performed an air/fuel test, documented that the fuel injectors failed, and recommended replacing them. The dealer noted that failed injectors can cause p0430. The injector-specific parts-and-labor estimate is $1,849. 06. No injector repair or post-repair test is documented yet. There was no crash, fire, injury, fatality, or police report. Honda service bulletin 21-010 provides a 10-year/150,000-mile injector warranty extension for certain 2018-2019 Odysseys. For p0430, it directs an air/fuel test and injector replacement if the test fails. Honda says this vehicle's VIN is ineligible despite the dealer's matching diagnostic pathway and offered 50% goodwill. This bulletin is a warranty extension, not a recall. I ask NHTSA to examine whether the eligible VIN population adequately captures 2019 Odysseys with this documented failure pattern. The attached evidence summary identifies 27 public NHTSA complaints that report injector or matching-code concerns together with VIN-based coverage exclusion; those are owner allegations, not confirmed failure rates. Some other owners allege hesitation, power loss, or limp mode, but I have not experienced those symptoms. I am concerned that continued injector deterioration could create a future drivability or loss-of-power risk. Please compare Honda's production, warranty, goodwill, dealer-test, and failure-analysis data for included and excluded vehicles. The dealer findings and evidence summary are attached.

?while driving my 2019 Honda Odyssey at highway speeds on the 60 freeway, the vehicle experienced a sudden and total engine failure/stall without prior warning. I had all my kids in the car as well. Chp advised to call Honda the sudden stalling resulted in an immediate loss of engine power, creating an unsafe scenario on a high-speed freeway. I was forced to navigate the vehicle across traffic lanes to pull over onto the shoulder safely.

Failed component: direct fuel injector set. The components are currently on the vehicle and are available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: the failing fuel injectors create a severe engine air/fuel imbalance, which causes engine hesitation, engine stumbling during acceleration, and unpredictable power loss. This puts my family at high risk of a collision, particularly when merging onto highways, crossing busy intersections, or accelerating from a stop. Furthermore, dumping unburnt fuel into the exhaust risks overheating the catalytic converter, creating a potential fire hazard. Dealer confirmation: yes. The problem was confirmed by autonation Honda 365 in memphis, TN, on [xxx] (mileage: 83,452). Manufacturer inspection: the vehicle was inspected by factory-trained technicians at an authorized Honda dealership. A case was opened with Honda corporate, but they refused to cover the repair, stating my specific VIN batch was excluded from their warranty extension, despite suffering the exact same failure. Warning lamps & symptoms: an "emissions system problem" warning and the check engine light illuminated on [xxx]. Incident description & cause: Honda is fully aware of this dangerous defect. They issued service bulletin 21-010, acknowledging that "debris from the high-pressure pump or the fuel injector machining process can cause internal wear or clogging" in 2018-2019 Odysseys. Following the TSB 21-010 protocol, the dealer pulled code p219a and performed a "cylinder af test. " my vehicle failed the test (cylinder 3 running rich). The Honda technician’s official notes state: "fail air fuel test need injector set internal failure. " Honda extended the warranty to 10 years/150,000 miles for this known manufacturing defect, yet they are arbitrarily excluding my 2019 Odyssey, which has the exact identical internal failure documented by their own dealer. Honda's refusal to issue a full recall leaves all affected drivers at risk. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C.

June 2026, I was driving my 2019 Honda Odyssey ex-l on a family trip to florida when the dashboard lit up like a christmas tree and the car went into neutral. We were on florida road a1a, close to daytona beach. My wife and I had to push the car off the side of the road and call a tow truck company. This occurred on a Friday night. The only place I was able to take the vehicle for repair was the nearest dealership. I told them what happened. The service writer tells me the issue is the fuel pump and high pressure fuel pump. The cost was $2,800. When I told them I was on vacation and this issue should've been resolved back in 2021 with the recall they told me nothing could be done. I had the recall work completed in 2021 with 12,000 miles on the van. The fuel pump & high pressure fuel pump problem occurred in June 2026 with 51,000 miles on the van.

Codes are being detected that is associated with service bulletin 21-010 but my VIN # was not part of the service bulletin and I strongly believe it should be part of the service bulletin.

Fuel pump injector needs to be replaced at approximately 68,000 miles. Honda issued an extended warranty on fuel pump injectors for 2018-2019 models but refuses to cover replace it. Check engine light came on due to injector failure. This poses an extreme safety risk.

When picking my child up from school, upon departure, the front end of the vehicle began violently shaking and sounding as if it wanted to shut down, simultaneously, a number of system failure warnings displayed on the dash. I was able to get the vehicle into a parking spot and turn it off. It would not restart. I called a tow truck and had it towed to a local garage as it was not safe to drive even if it did start. Upon the local mechanic pulling codes, they pulled the code p0087 indicating a failure of the fuel system, gasoline: delivery: fuel pump. This incident put myself, my 3 children in the vehicle as well as other pedestrian children and adult pedestrians at great risk, because if I had lost control and not been able to park safely, the outcome may have been extremely different. The problem has been confirmed by local mechanic and is scheduled with the dealer in 5 days. There were no prior warnings or indications of the failure. Honda issued a recall in 2021 then closed it. It was later expanded by NHTSA in 2024. Then again closed. We never received notification of the recall either time. Recall numbers follow: 21v-21520v-314 expanded recall: 23v-858/Honda TSB 24-022 both, im told are closed, which is unfathomable to me given the significant and known dangers attributed to this issue.

Fuel injector failure in exact manner described in TSB 21-010 and code p219a. The emissions error is exactly matching TSB 21-010. Honda states that the VIN number is outside of scope and is requesting an out of pocket repair. According to many online complaints, the VIN numbers need to be expanded.

On may 2nd, we drove our 2019 Honda Odyssey xl-e to church, and as soon as we pulled into the parking lot, we started to see smoke coming from our front hood. We exited the car. Within 30 seconds, the car then went into flames, and exploded and the car is now unsalvageable. When I went online, it seems like this is a common occurrence with these Honda Odysseys. There were no warming lamps, messages, or lights that would have alerted me that something this serious would occur. We have taken our care to Honda for years for regular maintenance. We don't take it to any independent shops. Strictly to Honda for years. The most recent checkup/service was performed on February 11, 2026 where they performed the following services which they had recommended. 1) oil change 2)engine coolant flush with conditioner 3)transmission fluid change: 4) wheel alignment 5)fuel tank additive, throttle body service, and injector. This is serious safety event and our family and children could have been killed in this accident. We have pictures, videos, police report, and the car has been taken to a salvage yard. We have filed a claim with state farm.

2019 Honda Odyssey purchased new and one owner. Vehicle's VIN didn't fall under Honda TSB # 21-010 despite vehicle suffered a known defect pattern so Honda denied assistance soley due to VIN exclusion. Sequence: emissions system warning, p0420, injector failure diagnosis, consequential catalyst failure after injector malfunction.

The vehicle went into a limp mode due to programming and safety issue known by Honda. One of the six fuel injectors failed according to the fault codes at the dealer. I have reached out to Honda and they won't even acknowledge the safety issue nor are they willing to reimburse the cost of the emergency safety repair caused by the vehicle going into limp mode. They won't put anything in writing nor will they consent to any recorded calls. I have reached out to brad ortloff as well and he won't respond. What are they hiding? why did NHTSA allow Honda to get away with extending the warranty on the fuel injectors for certain Honda Odysseys rather than recalling them? what is the difference between the vehicles that were included? there are numerous vehicles that weren't included that are failing for the exact same reason. I can't get any answers from Honda. They just say they are not licensed techs. Brad ortloff won't respond. Why is NHTSA allowing Honda to put citizen's safety at risk? will someone please investigate this safety issue?.

The fuel injectors failed for the exact same reason as other vins that Honda issued an extended warranty for. The fuel injectors failed without warning and went into limp mode. The vehicle barely moved in rush hour in an unfamiliar city with very busy traffic. I reached out to Honda and they could not provide an explanation as to why the warranty wasn't extended for the fuel injectors like they were for other vins. In my opinion, Honda knows there is an issue, but has decided not to do anything about it. Hopefully, NHTSA can help with this potential safety issue. The dealer replaced the fuel injectors due them failing and the injectors are available for inspection.

I was driving to work on April 7th, 2026 and parked the vehicle at my company parking lot. Prior to parking, I noticed unusual smell and then parked the vehicle. I parked the vehicle around 8. 10 am and I got the call from my facilities manager around 8. 30-8. 40 am that my car caught on fire and by that time I noticed houston fire department extinguishing the fire. There were no check engine sign and this vehicle is a brand new vehicle when I purchased. Though there is no recall associated with my VIN #, the fire issue is similar to recalls for 2019 Honda odysey. The recall numbers are 23v-751( engine fire recall) & 20v-066 ( electrical wiring fire recall).

[incident description & manufacturer's bad faith] on April 6, 2026, an authorized Honda dealership (mcconnell Honda in montgomery, al) diagnosed my vehicle (2019 Honda Odyssey ex-l, 143,097 miles) with dtc p219a (rec replacing fuel injector set and fuel feed pipe at this time), requiring a fuel injector replacement. This exact mechanical failure is documented in Honda’s official service bulletin 21-010. The bulletin acknowledges that defective fuel injectors can cause engine misfires, loss of motive power, and engine stalling while driving. These conditions present an immediate and severe safety hazard. Honda established a 150,000-mile warranty extension limit for this defect in TSB 21-010. My vehicle has 143,097 miles and is well within this limit. However, american Honda corporation has arbitrarily refused to repair the vehicle. Furthermore, on April 21, 2026, the assigned Honda case manager left a voicemail officially denying the repair. He explicitly refused my repeated requests to provide this denial in writing. In the voicemail, he falsely stated that my vehicle at 143,000 miles is "well outside the range" for assistance, directly contradicting Honda's own written 150,000-mile bulletin. Please review the attached documents, including the official dealership diagnostic report (dtc p219a), the repair estimate, and a copy of TSB 21-010. I have also secured the audio recording of the case manager's voicemail to prove their bad faith. Honda is knowingly leaving a dangerous vehicle with a confirmed, documented fuel system defect on the road, while actively providing false information to the consumer to avoid repair costs. I strongly request the NHTSA to investigate Honda's deceptive and dangerous practice.

My car issues a emissions systems problem, upon bringing it to the dealer it was identified that the fuel injector system failed. This is a known issue with 2019 Honda Odysseys. Upon running the VIN on my vehicle, it was found it does not qualify under the extended warranty even though this is a known issue.

Vehicle intermittently loses propulsion during acceleration when merging. Engine rpm remains low despite throttle input. After a delay, transmission re-engages abruptly with a metallic scraping noise. This creates unsafe merging conditions. This happened today, 2/14/2026 in 4 instances in the same trip. It has also occurred approximately 50 other times over the past six months when the mileage was as low as 66,100 miles.

My 2019 Honda Odyssey had an emissions code come up with obd ii sensor code of p219a which led to research revealing that the code was a result of fuel injector failure. I took my van to the dealer who revealed that based on my VIN, I am not eligible for the extended warranty issued by Honda in 2021. This has resulted in a $1900. 00 repair bill that should be covered based on history and problems. Ref: [xxx] and [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

"emissions system problem" engine warning light has been on for quite some time. I know there is a service bulletin related to this issue, but my VIN is not covered. There are also several other warning lights that occasionally pop up, and my Honda dealer believes these are all related to the initial warning light. They mentioned that sometimes these systems start shutting down so the vehicle runs properly. Recently I received "transmission system prolem" (in conjunction with the slew of warning lights I have frequently been getting). No apparent issues until recently when I was driving on the interstate. The engine started to become very loud and when I looked at the rpms it was very high, over 5,000 rpms. The car wasn't shifting out of first gear at 55mph. I immediately slowed down and got off the interstate as soon as possible. After arriving home, we unhooked the battery, re-installed, and all of the warning lights were gone. Again, the Honda dealer believes all of these issues were realted to the "emissions system problem", which is part of a service bulletin that should be covered by warranty extension. I beleive my VIN should be included, and the recent transmission system problem which happened on the interstate was very dangerous and could have ended very badly, had I not been in tune with what was happening.

Life-threatening acceleration lag: the vehicle is experiencing severe power loss during critical driving moments, for example, while entering intersections or attempting to re-accelerate into moving traffic. When I attempt to speed up, the engine fails to respond initially, leaving the vehicle stranded in the path of cross-traffic. The engine finally engages only because I am forced to floor the accelerator pedal out of necessity, which then causes the tires to squeal when power eventually returns. Intermittent starting issues: the vehicle frequently fails to start smoothly on the first attempt; a known symptom associated with the fuel pump impeller deformation described in recall 23v-858. Vcm shudder and hesitation: I am experiencing the distinct vibration and rhythmic shudder associated with the variable cylinder management system. This symptom is most prominent during deceleration or coasting; specifically, when I lift my foot off the accelerator without applying the brakes, the system triggers a noticeable shudder as it incorrectly manages cylinder engagement/deactivation. Suspected catalytic failure (codes p0420/p0430): both catalytic converters are exhibiting inefficiency codes simultaneously, which are highly atypical and occur well before the expected component lifespan. This clearly points to upstream defects. Specifically, the catalytic substrate has been poisoned by carbon and phosphorus deposits from the documented oil-burning defect and has suffered thermal damage due to the improper fuel mixtures caused by the defective high-pressure fuel pump (recall 23v-858).

The emissions warning comes on and off, the Honda dealer said it's a fuel injection system issue. Noted that NHTSA has issued extended warranty for this issue on 2019 Honday Odysseys but my specific VIN is not included. Nhtsa needs to extend this issue to additional vins having this issue as Honda is not covering it.

Accelerator pedal becomes non-responsive while driving. Honda has addressed some of the affected vehicles.

Fuel injector went out while driving known problem Honda only recalled some of the vans not all.

I went to my van, and many alerts were going off on the dash about multiple systems failing and not working. I got the van to the dealer who said it was the fuel injectors that needed replaced. I found a service bulletin about this saying american Honda is extending the warranty on the fuel injection repairs to 10 years from the original date of purchase or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first. The dealer said there was not a recall on my VIN and there was nothing they could do and I was forced to pay for the repairs.

The fuel injectors emaeem to be malfunctioning and the obd for emissions is lighting up. It has been inspected by the dealer and confirmed it needs to be replaced. The obd code is p219a and this causes misfire and potential stalling of the vehicle. Honda has issued several tsbs but none have my VIN. Some of the tsbs are TSB a18-025, TSB a21-010 and TSB onln9403292021. It has been inspected by Honda dealer and confirmed to be a issue but no action unless I pay them a lot of money. I would like to see if NHTSA can help to add my VIN number to the list or help me get Honda to repair my vehicle.

While parked on Saturday, 9 different warnings popped up including fuel emission issue and brake issue. Tried to restart the car and failed. Came back later with a jump start kit assuming it was battery related. Car started up fine and drove it on the highway for 30 minutes. The 9 warnings were still present. Continued using the car on Sunday on 30 minute highway drive without issue. Monday morning noticed the warnings were gone. Continued use. Around noon the warnings came back and the car refused to start. Used a jump start kit to get the engine started, but it could only go about 10mph. Attempting to push the accelerator further would stutter the car. Managed to get it to a shop where they diagnosed the fuel pump motor had failed. They told me that the part was listed in a recall. I looked up the NHTSA number - 23v858000. However, my VIN was not included in the recall.

Engine failure. Not available for inspection. Engine replaced and damaged engine return for core charge. While driving on the highway, without any for warning, engine stalled, loss of power and dash read “emissions system problem “. Vehicle was towed to Honda of denton for diagnostic testing. The engine stalling and loss of power at highway speeds caused a great risk for my family in the van. We impeded traffic and could have caused an accident. There were no warning lights and/or engine system issues leading up to the engine failure. Honda stated that it’s is a common issue with the internal engine bearing failure. They also confirmed that my VIN is not listed on the recall list for the 2 million engines effected. Honda quoted a lkq engine replacement. Declined and had replacement done at caliber collison.
