DTC Quick Navigation
BACKGROUND
Certain Honda Odyssey vehicles sold in the United States as the 1998-99 Isuzu Oasis were produced with electrical contacts in the ignition switch that can wear prematurely due to high electrical current passing through the switch. Worn-out ignition contacts could cause the engine to stall without warning. Although the engine restarts in most cases, a vehicle that stalls while driving increases the risk of a crash.
Due to the limited number of Isuzu repair facilities/dealers, Honda is working with Isuzu to replace the ignition switches.
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this campaign.
Do an iN VIN status inquiry to make sure the vehicle is shown as eligible.
Some vehicles affected by this campaign may be in your used vehicle inventory.
Failure to repair a vehicle subject to a recall or campaign may subject your dealership to claims or lawsuits from the customer or anyone else harmed as a result of such failure. Before selling a vehicle in inventory, always check if it is affected by a safety recall by conducting a VIN status inquiry.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Replace the electrical portion of the ignition switch.
NOTE
Reinstalling aftermarket parts (security systems, alarms, audio systems, etc.) connected to the ignition switch is not covered under this campaign. If a customer wants a non-Honda part reinstalled, the shop that installs it (or the customer) must do the work and assume liability. In addition, the customer is responsible for all costs associated with the non-Honda part and its installation. If you have any questions, contact your DPSM.
