8 Blind Spot Detection problem

Failure Date: 08/30/2024

September 2024, I bought my car to the dealership to check multiple warning lights showed up on my dashboard. The dealer read the code and determine the multipurpose windshield camera had internal malfunction. The dealer told me that my multipurpose windshield camera need to be replace on my 60k mi 2020 Odyssey ex-l for ~$2. 3k in conshohocken PA. I had many of those sensor lights on (e. G. Acc, lane assist, collision mitigation) and saw many comments on a youtube video (Honda Odyssey warning lights bonanza get ready to pay). Do my research online; seem like this happened a lot for the Honda Odyssey from year 2017 to year 2020 hope NHTSA will investigate on this issue. It a very expensive fix for the vehicle barely break in. With all those safety feature disengage/malfunction at the same time, it is a very dangerous issue.
