The Brief

    • 325,000 Honda Odyssey minivans were recalled over an issue with the rearview camera.
    • Many of the vehicles had been subject to a previous recall over a similar problem, the automaker noted.
    • The recall affects minivans produced between January 24, 2017 and July 22, 2020, the NHTSA report indicated.

Hundreds of thousands of minivans are being recalled by Honda over a problem with their rear-view camera, including those that were included in a previous one related to the same issue.

Big picture view:

The new recall from Honda covers more than 325,000 of its Honda Odyssey minivans that were produced between January 24, 2017, and July 22, 2020, according to a report posted on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. 

Included in this effort are the ones recalled under a previous NHTSA campaign as well as 2018 vehicles with Magna rear-view cameras that were included in a different product update.

Why you should care:

Honda explained that water can get into the rearview camera assembly and corrode the printed circuit board. That could result in the camera’s image not showing up for the driver and potentially increase the chances of a crash. 

The Japanese automaker noted that no crashes or injuries related to the issue have been reported.

What you can do:

Honda stated in the report that it will contact affected Odyssey owners by mail and ask them to take their vehicles to an authorized Honda dealership to have the camera replaced. It noted that this replacement camera will be made by a different manufacturer, namely Sony. 

Odyssey owners can also look to see if their minivans are affected by searching the VIN on the NHTSA recall website.
