2019 Honda Odyssey Reviews

It has been 2 years and I still wish I had my 2007 Odyssey. Kicking myself for having traded it in. The only thing I like better about the 2019 is the safety features, which is why I purchased a newer vehicle. The storage is horrendous. So much of it was removed and the person who designed the center console should be fired. I have also had more trouble with this van. It lurches when putting into gear. I have been told it is normal. The stereo system has finally gotten recalled. This is my second Honda minivan. It is my fourth Honda vehicle and very well may be my last. So incredibly disappointed.

The 2019 Honda odyssey seats 8 people. Even with 3 regular size car seats. It have apple play and you can hook up either Bluetooth or with a cord connection. Your back seat can go into the trunk seamlessly which create more room for large objects. It even have a hook in the car to hang a bag. Kid friendly and very safe. You have driver assistance. Car beep if you switching lane and a car is in your blind spot. Have backup cameras and lane assistance. Example if you going over the line it will try to get you back into your lane. Love it... This is my 2nd Honda odyssey.

I am obsessed with my mama minivan! My favorite is the sliding seats in the middle row. I am able to relocate kids in car seats so easily so that my oldest can quickly scoot to the back seat. I also love the safety features, which are top of the line. The rear navigation system is wonderful for small kids on long car rides, and I love how easily I can entertain myself with the apple CarPlay while they watch cartoon DVDs. The ride is incredibly smooth. I feel safe. I also adore the turning radius and feel like I can get around tight parking spots easily.

I really enjoy the apple car play feature. It allows me to use navigation through my phone, on the screen of the van, with ease while still listening to music and receiving calls. I miss the blind spot camera that was available on my 2016 odyssey. I also find the a/c takes time to cool down. The fact that the middle row seats can slide side to side is a convenient feature for a busy family and fills versatile needs. The void area between the front 2 seats under the console seems like wasted space. The drive shift feature of the van is annoying and the paddles on the steering wheel can be easily hit accidentally putting the vehicle into manual shift mode. I have 2 younger drivers in the household and wish this feature could be disabled. The power moonroof is a feature my family often enjoys to allow additional air movement overall, I enjoy the quality and reliability that comes with owning a Honda.

The interior features of this vehicle is great. We have 4 kids and we do frequent road trips with plenty of space and comfort. The only downfall we’ve had was a problem with the rear entertainment system that required a replacement and this vehicle has had a ton of recalls. This has been an inconvenience to frequently bring into the dealership. We also discovered that Honda’s require you to take the vehicle into the dealership for battery changes as they make the battery near impossible to access. Overall we do like the vehicle though.

We bought the odyssey with the rear entertainment package because we have three kids and we have had nothing but problems. The screen sometimes goes black, yet we can still hear the audio. Recently, the entertainment system wouldn't work and all we could hear was static, so we completely turned it off and we could still hear static and had to listen to it for the rest of our trip. Sometimes, the audio does not work at all and we get an error message on the main screen. I have taken my van in 4 times and still have issues.

The seats are extremely comfortable for long car rides. It is a quiet ride. I feel very safe in it for me and my children. I love all the safety features. It is great for littles because you can lock the windows or doors. The entertainment system can be controlled from the front easily. The kids are entertained and can put their headphones on so it is quiet for the adults or if the adults would like to listen to something else. The adult can talk to the child in their headphones through a click of a button. Navigation system is easy to handle and you can save your favorite or most frequent locations. It also predicts your habits. It has cruise control, lane assist, and self driving to help you on the road. We really enjoy how you can continue to reconfigure the seats and slide them over or collapse them for more storage. You can even take the middle seat out. We have definitely never lacked for storage space in this vehicle. The amount of cup holders is astounding. Since both me and my husband use this vehicle, it is great that it recognizes our seat configuration based on which key is getting into the car or by a click of a button. It auto locks when I leave or unlocks when I return when my hands are full. I would recommend this vehicle as my top pick for any family with kids.

The vehicle itself is an overall ok car. It is not an automatic and the computer system lacks in organization. It is a bit confusing at first and sometimes has technical issues. Other than that it is a reliable car. With a smooth drive. It is also very spacious and you can hide the seats in the back underneath. But if you're used to an automatic car with cameras on either side of the mirror I would suggest upgrading. Because again although it is a reliable car it is still lacks in the technology. Like we could of just stuck with our old mold the lx 2014.

My Honda odyssey drives very smoothly and handles more like a smaller vehicle than like one as big as it is. I also know from getting into a car accident years ago with a previous odyssey that the passengers do well inside the vehicle. The gas mileage is better than my last SUV so I am happily saving a little at the pump. I also like that there are 4 sets of car seat anchors. This helps since I have 3 kids still in car seats. If I could change one thing, it would be to add the ability to turn on 4-wheel drive for when it is icy, snowy, or rain slick out as a standard feature of the vehicle.

Problems: 2019 Honda odyssey - electronics have malfunctioned quite a bit. It has stopped in the middle of the street while stopping at a red light and wouldn't start when it turned green for about 2 minutes. We've taken it in several times for recalls. Performance: aside from the terrifying incident of shutting off, it is overall performance has been good. We truly love it. Reliability: it has been very reliable. Honda is known for its reliability. We haven't had it long enough, but we are unsure if it will be as reliable as the older Hondas. We do have a very good warranty plan though. Comfort and features: it was the comfort and features that made us choose the Honda odyssey. Most important for me was the cabin view. We purchased it right before I had my second child and being able to see a newborn in the backseat while driving was so important to us.

We purchased our vehicle in November, 2018. It has been very reliable, has all the latest safety features, has an 8 passenger capacity, easy third-row seating access, plenty of cargo space. It is actually fun to drive, very comfortable on extended trips and gets excellent fuel economy. On a recent trip I actually hit 33.2mpg at highway speeds (75 mph) for over 400 miles! I would recommend the Honda Odyssey EX-L to anyone looking for an economical, fun to drive, multi-passenger capacity minivan.

As a new model for 2019 have had several recalls (windows, sliding doors, one other I can't remember). Leather on second row has not been durable. Car seats have rubbed small holes in them. I would think a car geared towards families would not have this problem. Door to gas tank has gotten stuck several times at inopportune moments (needing gas) and had to be ripped off! It's the kind you just push on the get it to open, no key or button in the car. Had to dealer twice to repair it. Their fix has not worked. Recently had issue again but got door back on by myself. The brakes pulse when stopping from speeds 50 mph and above. Had brake inspection done and dealer says they are fine. The car is comfortable and roomy. I like the way it drives. GPS and radio controls are easy to use. Love the magic slide seats in second row. Wish there was a better option for the center seat on the second row other than taking it out and storing it in back of car or my garage. Kids love the DVD player. Wish there was a way to know what is on their screen from the front seat. My kids are 5 and 3 and don't read yet. When on trips if we are having an issue getting the DVD to play I can't see what they see and either have to crane my neck back to try to get a glimpse of their screen or stop the car.

As a multigenerational family, we love our odyssey. It is the perfect vehicle for my elderly/disabled family members to get into easily and plenty of room/access to assistive devices (walker). We also use our odyssey to transport our 3 pups to appointments. Plenty of cabin room for all our needs. We tend to buy the top model for the additional perks and are never disappointed. So far the only disappointment is related to a possible seal issue allowing moisture in the drop-down trunk space, but we have not had that problem looked at specifically. The driver's side passenger door also has an issue closing when the temperature drops to freezing (or below), but unable to replicate the issue once the car is warmed up. Overall, highly satisfied and would not settle for another brand. Comfort, practicality/functionality, and safety features were all at the top of our list when choosing the vehicle. We were not disappointed.

The Honda odyssey is the best vehicle we have ever owned. It is stylish and sleek. The comfort of this vehicle is amazing. No more sore back or tense muscles on those long trips. The amenities that come with the ex-l trim package are amazing. I love the remote start option. Another added benefit is the miles per gallon. We average around 27 mpg on interstate trips, and that is with a full van! With 4 kids and a dog, we needed something roomy and the Honda odyssey definitely delivered! Satellite radio, backup camera, heated leather seats, Bluetooth phone hookup, moonroof, lots of cupholders, and a multitude of charging ports are just a few of the great extras that come with this vehicle!

I love all the self driving options on my mini van. I have arthritis in my right knee so it is a plus the vehicle can stay in lane, slow down or gain speed, measures distance from another vehicle all by a touch of a button. I also really like the touch buttons to start, reverse and drive. The cabin talk is also a very neat feature ( makes talking to my son easier when he has the cars headphones on). The only downside is my 2017 had a side camera and I had hoped this car would have 360 view camera.

Versatile, luxurious, roomy, sophisticated. This minivan is far and away the best vehicle I have ever owned and I did not want a minivan. The modular back sears totally set it apart in its class. This is immensely helpful: we have two car seats but I am 6’7”. A car seat does not fit behind me generally, but with the modular middle row I can push the car seat to the middle, extend my legroom and drive comfortable. Plus apple CarPlay, a huge cargo area, and many creature comforts... A great purchase for families.

This car is great. It's comfortable on long trips for both driver and passengers. Kids love the rear entertainment system. It gets great mileage - 27 on our recent trip. Also great for daily travel with lots of kids in and out- the seat configurations available are awesome for carpooling. I can easily get my youngest out of his car seat while my oldest and his friends can easily get in and out. There is also lots of storage options with the third row down. Even up the well keeps groceries from sliding all around. I love all the safety features as well that alert you to cars in blind spot, back in camera and lane departure warnings. I have had no issues with this car and I really love it and would recommend it for any family!

One of the main advantages is that it drives and handles like a typical car. It does not feel big and boxy like some vans. Visibility is good and the safety features around that are so helpful. The noise level inside while driving on the freeway is low and the seats are very comfortable to drive in. The electronic interface is fairly easy to use and easy connects to my iPhone. The middle seats can move side to side which is useful when hauling big items or getting your kids in and out.

I really enjoy my Honda odyssey. The size is great to accommodate all the additional supplies needed when traveling with children. We frequently remove the back seats to allow addition storage, but also enjoy the fact that the option of third row seating is available. We also enjoy the many safety features, as keeping our family as safe as possible is of utmost importance to us. As far as bells and whistles, we enjoy the quality of the sound system, the sunroof, and the window shades.

The car feels luxurious to drive and the ability to customize nearly everything about the car from the seat positions to how the radio appears makes it feel like it's made for you. My one complaint the car is not as fun to drive as a sedan. And the gas mileage is really awful. Especially if you are used to driving smaller cars. But if you have to carry a lot of kids or a lot of stuff it will get the job done without making you feel like a long haul trucker.

I am petite and feel extremely comfortable driving this van. The driver's seat raises high enough and forward for me to see and drive well. My favorite feature is the middle row seating. I love that the middle seat can be removed, which allows the two outside seats to slide inward if needed. We currently have two car seats installed, so the sliding feature has been incredibly handy when people need to get to the back row. Once the car seats are removed, we will be able to flip the seats forward to allow people into the back. The vehicle has been spacious for our family. We really enjoy the vehicle.

After owning GM vehicles for 53 years. I decided to try a Honda because they don't have vans and my kids have been Honda lovers forever. Purchased a 2019 Odyssey. Asked if it had a warning sound when leaving the lane only to find out it only works after you reach 45 mph. Really? I could get killed at 44 but apparently that's ok with Honda. Traded a 2014 Buick Enclave that had it so I never dreamed my new car didn't. We are retired and my husband needs it. Not sure how long i can keep this car but after spending all that money i guess i am stock with it.

The engine wouldn't start on the third day, so I had to tow it to a nearest dealer. It would crank, but would not turn over. Make sure you park the back end in first, because it's a front wheel drive, so the towing company had to drag it out before they could hook up the front end. The dealership couldn't figure out the problem, but somehow they had the car running. Within 15 minutes, while I was back parking, gear shifted out to neutral by itself, then wouldn't shift back into any other position. When I turned the car off, the car wouldn't start again in the middle of the parking lot. It took me good 10 minutes, try after try to get the car running again. This was first time I ever had a problem with Honda vehicle. Now, I'm afraid to drive the van not knowing when it would not start again.
