2025 Honda Odyssey Repair History: What the Repair Orders Show
Visit 1: March 17, 2025
- Rear brakes were squeaking, the rearview mirror was loose and falling off, and the upholstery near the car seat bracket on the back of the driver's side middle-row seat was coming apart.
- No specific causes or corrections were documented in the repair order, only that work was marked as "completed."
Visit 2: May 22, 2025
- The vehicle randomly turned off and required a full restart.
- Technicians tested the battery, which failed, leading to replacement of the cranking battery.
- Rear brake squeak was reported again, but technicians were unable to duplicate the issue.
- The upholstery concern from the previous visit was also reported; technicians found it loose and performed necessary readjustments.
Visit 3: June 24–26, 2025
- The vehicle would start and then stall intermittently.
- Technicians verified the issue and found the starter stopping just before full engagement.
- They determined the valves were too loose and not relieving compression, which caused the starter to stop.

- A squeaking noise from the rear brakes was reported again but could not be duplicated.
- The rear driver-side seat backing was also reported to pop out, and a replacement rear cover and trim piece were placed on backorder.

- Continued repairs for the seat issue from the previous visit.
- Technicians replaced the middle seat cover and installed the new trim piece with the ordered parts.
- The vehicle continued to have a starting issue; technicians found the ECT1 sensor reading at -40 degrees, which caused fuel flooding and hard starting.
