The 25 most recent of 306, in the owner's own words
All of the warning lights came on at the same time. The dealer says the internal front camera sensor has malfunctioned and has happened so much that the part is on back order.
Error with the front camera system without damage to the instrument.
The LKAS, ACC, AEB, Automatic High Beams, and other safety features that rely on the front camera all became inoperable for no apparent reason. The front facing camera seems to be the culprit. This is a known issue and Honda should submit a recall to replace the faulty camera.
We have Multipurpose Camera Failure. No damage or accidents. It just started failing. There are many reports of this and the camera is on back order with Honda. They are charging $2100 to fix it. The official Honda Odyssey Forum online has countless complaints on the same issue without resolution by Honda. Honda has acted in bad-faith towards their customers since this defect impacts the vehicle's advanced safety features for which buyers incur additional expenses, endangering the lives of passengers. Honda has acted in bad-faith towards their customers by designing a system that requires continuous and substantial expenditures without resolution because it is an engineering problem, i.e., the placement of the radar behind the large, thick plastic H emblem obstructs the radar. I hereby ask that the NHTSA investigate this issue and order Honda to offer a solution in the form of a RECALL that permanent addresses the problem. Our experience after contacting Honda Corporate to get some help is this is a money maker for them.
I have received warning lights associated with safety features controlled by front facing windshield camera indicating that the ACC, auto braking, lane departure and front collision avoidance features were not working. This has happened once before just over a year ago and I was told by the dealer that the camera needed to be replaced. I did so, at a cost of over $2K. All features worked again after the costly replacement, until last month, just outside of the one year warranty on the new camera. This is clearly an issue with either the camera or a connected electrical issue. This van also has a breach in the body wields at the rear lift gate opening in which water is able to seep into the interior of the body behind the interior rear side panels. During heavy rains the carpet on the right side trunk area is wet and can be tracked to coming from behind the right rear interior molding. I have not yet removed the molding so I am unsure if any electrical components connected to the front camera and associated safety features are located there and might be causing these safety feature issues. At a minimum, both of these issues, the camera constantly quitting, as well as the breach in the body allowing moisture intrusion, should warrant a forced recall for Honda to address and correct each item.
Multipurpose Camera Failure causing multiple displays on dashboard
I am reporting a safety-related defect involving my **2019 Honda Odyssey EX-L** (VIN: **5FNRL6H76KB029137**) with approximately **101,156 miles**. **"Brake System"** warning message appears first. Within seconds, additional warnings appear one at a time for **Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Road Departure Mitigation (RDM), and Automatic High Beam**. All of these safety systems become unavailable. The vehicle continues to drive and brake normally, and the speedometer functions correctly. The Blind Spot Information System and rear parking sensors continue to operate normally. A diagnostic scan performed by a VIP Honda mechanic identified **Diagnostic Trouble Code U3000-49** stored in the **front multipurpose camera module**, indicating an internal camera module fault. The battery and alternator have been tested and are operating correctly. The vehicle has its **original windshield**, has **never been involved in a collision**, and there are **no signs of water intrusion** around the front camera assembly. This failure occurred suddenly during normal driving without any known external cause. The failure disables multiple collision avoidance and driver assistance systems that are intended to help prevent crashes. Because these safety systems become unavailable during normal vehicle operation, I believe this represents a potential safety defect that should be investigated. I have notified Honda of this issue and opened **American Honda Customer Relations Case #165-16502**. Honda is currently reviewing the matter for possible goodwill assistance. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether similar front camera module failures (DTC U3000-49) are occurring in other 2019 Honda Odyssey vehicles equipped with Honda Sensing.
On 8.1.26, while operating my 2019 Honda Odyssey, the vehicle suffered a catastrophic, un-commanded automatic emergency braking event followed by a total failure of the brake-release fail-safe mechanisms. While driving in active traffic, the vehicle's forward-facing sensor system suffered a false-alarm trigger. Due to a severe design and component vulnerability, the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) switch suffered a simultaneous internal mechanical and electronic hardware failure. Because the EPB switch failed internally at the exact moment of the automatic braking event, the system failed to command a brake release. The vehicle’s wheels locked completely, leaving the vehicle completely immobilized in active traffic. This multi-system failure resulted in an immediate, life-threatening crash hazard. By random circumstance and the grace of God, a catastrophic rear-end collision was avoided, but this was a severe near-fatal safety event. A professional automotive diagnostic scan confirmed that the vehicle's computer retained 2 distinct fault incident codes documenting the internal hardware failure of the EPB switch. The dealership confirmed that the system provides absolutely no advance warning to the driver, and fails entirely "in the event," meaning the vehicle remains safe until it suddenly and unpredictably locks the brakes on the highway. The vehicle was repaired out-of-pocket for $297 to replace the defective switch. I am filing this complaint because an internal electronic switch failure must never result in an un-commanded, un-releasable wheel lockup while a vehicle is in motion. This indicates a fatal flaw in Honda's braking fail-safe architecture. This issue must be investigated immediately before it results in a future serious or fatal acciden.
With a 103,000 on the dash, engine experienced signs on slowing, check engine, abs, adaptive cruise, and steering faults amongst others . No lights prior to the bearing failing. The engine experienced rod bearing failure and left use stranded on the side of the highway. All maintenance was performed at dealership, towed back to dealership where upon inspection rod bearing completely fell apart. Vehicle is still at dealership where a 14,000 dollar engine was quoted.
The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, several unknown warning lights illuminated with the message “Front Camera Error” displayed, and the front camera became inoperable. The vehicle was taken to a dealer and was diagnosed with a front camera failure. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 72,000.
Front camera intermittently works after NHTSA Recall Number 26V-227 software update. ADAS systems may turn on or off while driving. This issue may not have anything to do with the update, but Honda is aware of the front camera problem. Affects: Auto High-Beam Problem Adaptive Cruise Control Problem Lane Keeping Assist Problem Collision Mitigation System Problem Road Departure Mitigation System Problem There has been a class action lawsuit filed against Honda by California June 2026.
The car started having the ACC, LKAS, Collisions Mitigation, Auto High Bam, Road Departure mitigation system warnings. Took it to the dealer for another repair and was told that these lights were due to the front facing camera and was quoted over $1k for repair. I’m convinced it’s electrical and not necessarily what the Honda narrative is. This model has had several issues around electrical components. Please open an investigation into this car around this issue.
started getting bombarded with error messages. Collision Mitigation LKA Adaptive cruise Lane Departure Mitigation Auto High Beam
Failure in the front multipurpose camera. None of the drivers assisted safety features work now. These include: adaptive cruise control, emergency braking, lane keep assistance, lame departure warming, and others.
I have 2019 Honda odyssey and my front windshield Camera shows multiple lights also nothing works there are shows 11 working lights also I go dealer and they toll me you have to replace your windshield Camera and it cost $2200 and not only me there are so many people facing that same problem plz give a recall for Honda Odyssey year 2018 2019 & 2020
Since purchasing the van, have reported intermittent hesitation to dealerships. Never duplicated at dealership. Eventually, fuel pump replaced under recall. Still had intermittent issues. On June 11,2026, while on the highway, van had slight hesitation and codes started going on dashboard. Got off the highway and the van limped into a nearby Home Depot parking lot. Had it towed to Hill Country Honda where they diagnosed a bad MAP sensor. When told it was ready for pick up, informed that the wiring harness was pinched. The technician stated that he had straightened the wiring and when I inquired about it, told that particular wire had to be cut out and replaced. Informed that I would likely have further issues with van and recommendation was to replace the whole wiring harness. I asked how it was pinched and told that it was probably done at assembly point and not noticed since it was under other components. I called Honda Cares as recommended to see if they could do anything for the van but Honda said the van was not under warranty so no assistance was provided. The van has 74,000 miles and always maintained by dealerships. Honda Cares said outside influence was the reason nothing could be offered. I believe that Honda is responsible for this situation and I have known 3 different 2019 owners who shared hesitation issues as new owners. Rear speakers are playing very low and told it might also be affected by wiring harness but I don’t think I should spend $4500.00+ to fix this problem.
We started having electrical problems, camera does not work, radio does not work. Took it into Honda dealership and said nothing was working because we needed to replace the fuel pump and a bunch of other things for almost $3000.
Collision mitigation system problem, auto high beam problem , lane keep assist problem, adaptive cruise control problem, road departure mitigation problem. All of these lights came on at the same time then a transmission problem light came on. Was told by a mechanic that Honda has an issue with a lot of these because of where it sits directly in the sun. All of these problems seem to be connected.
The front camera failed and made all driver assist, automatic braking, lane departure and collision warnings to fail. The cost of a new camera and calibrations is $2000. This critical piece of safety should not fail so soon or be that expensive to replace.
The camera for collision, cruise control, lane assistance and etc stopped working. Over $2000 to replace and not covered under warranty
For the past 6 months the vehicle shows warnings regarding lane keeping assistance problems, cruise problems, braking problems,. The warning can show up in the middle of driving, or right at start. Sometimes they go away while driving.
Warnings Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assistance, Collision Warning Systems, Brake System showed up while driving the vehicle, upon further search it was found there is a common issue with Honda Odyssey's multipurpose camera, and the dealer is charging 2000$ to fix it. This is a common problem in all the Honda Odyssey. I request NHTSA to look further into this issue and perform a recall or a free of charge installation. The official Honda Odyssey Forum online has countless complaints on the same issue without resolution by Honda. Honda has acted in bad-faith towards their customers since this defect impacts the vehicle's advanced safety features for which buyers incur additional expenses, endangering the lives of passengers. Honda designed a system that requires continuous and substantial expenditures without resolution because it is an engineering problem, i.e., the placement of the radar behind the large, thick plastic H emblem obstructs the radar.

BELIEVE CAMERA SENSOR IN WINDSHIELD OR BEHIND HONDA EMBLEM CAUSING ISSUES WITH 2019 EX-L MODEL/ CAR WILL POP UP 8 DIFFERENT CODES ENDING WITH "TRANSMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM" MAKING VEHICLE UNABLE TO OPERATE. IN ADDITION TO TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, IT ALSO TURNS OFF ALL SAFETY FEATURES IN VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. CAN WE PLEASE GET THIS RECALLED AND FIXED??
The DTC U300-49 suddenly failed which affects many of the security systems on the 2019 Honda Odyssey. Upon research, this is very common on the Honda Odyssey caused by it overheating which seems like it should be a dangerous part. It is such an expensive part that we as the consumer have to replace and it should be Honda replacing it if it is their fault that this part fails often. I haven't replaced it as we don't have the funds to replace it, so hopefully it won't pose a safety threat as there are 5 warnings showing on my screen daily.
The camera located behind the rearview mirror is faulty. In hot weather locations (like mine in Florida) it stops working. And that means all electronically assisted driving systems LKAS (like cruise control, auto high beam, lane departure, auto distance monitor/collision warning, etc.) malfunction, giving flashing messages about all non-working features. This is due to CMOS image sensor degradation caused by heat exposure. Many people have expressed concerns about this on different Honda forums online. I took it to a Honda dealer and after paying a fee for diagnosis, the service manager said that when the temperature outside gets hot, they get a lot of this kind of service request. They want over $2,300 to replace the camera. They were actually puzzled why Honda does not recall this item. Honda needs to address this since it is actually safety related and indeed a faulty item. There should be no reason for people to pay this outrageous price for something that is clearly a manufacturing problem.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
