- Problem
- Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2018-2023 Odyssey, 2019-2022 Pilot, and 2019-2023 Passport vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."
- Risk
- A rearview camera that does not display an image can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

What this recall means for you
A faulty connector in the MOST communication coaxial cable can prevent the rearview camera image from appearing on the display. Because the camera picture may not show, the driver's view behind the vehicle is reduced, which increases the risk of a crash or injury. These vehicles also do not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 111, "Rear Visibility."
Authorized Honda dealers will replace the MOST cable harness and install a straightening cover over the vehicle cable connector. The repair is free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 24, 2023. To find out whether your vehicle is affected, check your VIN for open recalls, and you can contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138.
