1996 Honda Odyssey Problems
Whether you purchased your 1996 Honda Odyssey the year it came out, or you purchased a used model, there have been problems reported by consumers regarding this car. Always make sure your car is covered by a warranty because repairs will more than likely be needed.
2009 Recall
In May of 2009, Honda recalled all Odysseys that were manufactured in 1996 due to the headlamps failing to conform to the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108. The lamps in the 1996 Odyssey did not contain the required amber side lectors.
Ignition Problems
Over 500,000 1996 Honda Odysseys had problems with faulty ignition switches that caused the vehicle to shut down while traveling at both low and high speeds. Most of these vehicles were manufactured in China, and exported into North America.
SRS Control Module
Several complaints have been filed stating that after a replacement battery has been installed in the 1996 Honda Odyssey, the SRS light would come on. Upon inspection by mechanics, a conclusion came about that the SRS control module needed to be replaced and the cost would be around $700.
