POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
What Happened
The Transmission Control Unit (TCU) in your 2018-2019 Odyssey is like the brain of your automatic transmission. It helps control when your gears shift in and out. But sometimes, it can crash and reset, causing the transmission to shift to 'Park' instead of staying in gear.
Risk if Unfixed
If the parking rod gets damaged, your vehicle could roll away when you park it, increasing the chance of a crash or injury to you or others nearby.
Free Fix
Honda will fix the issue for free by tightening your battery connections, updating the TCU software, and checking the parking rod to ensure it's working properly. You should schedule this repair as soon as you get the recall notice, and it won't cost you a thing.
