Component
SEATS:MID/REAR ASSEMBLY
Manufacturer
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
What Happened
The second row outboard seats in your Odyssey can move sideways to two different positions. This design allows them to attach to the floor in two ways, but if it's not done correctly, the seat might not stay secure when you brake hard.
Risk if Unfixed
If the seat tips forward when you brake hard, you could be at risk of injury from the seat or any objects in front of you.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will add a bracket to the floor strikers under the second row outboard seats to ensure they latch securely. This repair is free, and you'll get a notice with instructions on how to schedule it.
