2019 Honda Odyssey Fuel system Problems

My 2019 Honda Odyssey Elite started giving error code P219A and stalling randomly whenever the auto-idle stop feature was enabled. The vehicle stalling in traffic is obviously a safety issue but luckily was able to be restarted. The vehicle has stalled on multiple occasions. I researched this online and found a warranty extension on the fuel injectors for this issue under Service Bulletin 21-010. I brought the vehicle to the Honda dealer and they confirmed that the issue is the fuel injectors and is related to SB 21-010, but informed me that my particular VIN number is not included in the warranty extension and that I would have to front the money for the repairs. I called Honda Customer Service to complain about me having to cover this repair out of pocket when this is a known issue with this vehicle, but they were adamant that Honda would not cover any cost since my particular VIN was not under the warranty extension. I disagree with the way Honda is handling this issue and they should be the ones paying the bill for this poor workmanship and a known defect in their fleet.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Odyssey. The contact stated that while attempting to accelerate from a complete stop at a traffic light, the vehicle hesitated and failed to respond. The vehicle responded after several attempts and operated as intended. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the fuel injector had failed and needed replacement. The contact notified the manufacturer of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 136,000.

Incident

Oct 10, 2026

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.

In April of 2025 I had my vehicle towed to O"Donnell Honda because my car was sputtering and inoperable after getting gas a few min prior. The ran codes and got back PO300 PO3054 and PO306 misfires and unknown to me there was an active warranty recall on the fuel injectors. At this time I was withing the warranty period. The dealership told me that I got bad gas and their was nothing wrong with my car. I have spent the last 16 months taking my car back and forth to the dealer trying to figure out what this intermitent problem was with my car. I have at least three visits to the dealer and multiple phone calls with honda over this time. In addition to emails. Most times the code would disappear before I could make it to the dealer. I have also spoken to honda corporate and they have never mentioned this warranty until yesterday I had the issue again and they said it was my fuel injectors and want me to pay $2000 to repair it despite this being a known issues since 4/2025 when my car was withing the warraty period. They said they had no obligation to fix it back in May because they could not recreate the problem but that is not true according to their 21-010 Defect service bulletin. It specifically states they were to replace the fuel injectors. I have documentation to prove all of this. I have spent month and put out additional money on a situation that thye dealership refused to replace a known, warranty-extended safety defect that was officially scanned and documented prior to the 150,000-mile expiration window

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.

Incident

Sep 29, 2026

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

Sep 22, 2026

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.

For about 3-4 years now we have had issues with either the accelerator and/or possibly the transmission. We are not exactly sure which because our dealer claims they can never recreate the issue which is hard to believe since the issue happens to us most times the car is driven. The complaint that we have is intermittent delayed/no acceleration when accelerator is pressed, followed by sudden surge/punch forward after releasing and pressing accelerator again. What makes it particularly frightening is when it happens and the car is exposed to other perpendicular traffic that may not have to stop. No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem occur or accompany the issue in question. The vehicle has only been looked at by our Honda Dealership.

Incident

Aug 15, 2026

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.

XXX, 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 [XXX], close to [XXX]. 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.

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.
