I have that same issue! I took it to the dealer, and they reset the system, but it came back after a week. I’m so confused.
I’m curious if any of you have had trouble with the infotainment system crashing? Mine freezes up whenever I try to use navigation.
Yes! Mine does the same thing. I found a software update for it online, but I haven’t tried it yet. Is it worth it?

I had to turn off the alerts on my dashboard because they were constant. Now I just glance occasionally to make sure nothing critical is happening.
That sounds like a temporary fix. Maybe we should all look into getting a diagnostic tool to check for hidden codes?
The struggles are real! I’d joke that my Odyssey has a mind of its own, but this is just annoying. I hope someone finds a permanent solution soon!
Right? At this rate, I might start naming the lights! Maybe I’ll call the check engine light “Sparky”!
Seriously though, I think we should compile a list of common electrical issues and their fixes. It could help us all out.

Great idea! I know that the battery connections can lead to some weird electrical problems. Did anyone clean their terminals yet?
This thread is really helpful. I’ve been feeling lost with all these issues. Thanks to everyone for sharing, it gives me hope!
We’re all in this together! If anyone finds a magical fix, please share! It’s hard being a minivan parent sometimes.
I think my Odyssey might be haunted…I unplugged the battery, and things still went haywire. Spooky!
Haha, maybe we need an exorcist for our cars! But in all seriousness, I’m hoping for a solid solution here.
I’ve been facing a lot of issues with my 2012 Odyssey lately! The transmission slips occasionally, and I’ve already spent over $2,000 on repairs this year alone.
Oh no, I’m sorry to hear that! My Odyssey has had a few maintenance challenges too, like constant brake replacements. It’s been frustrating!

Brake issues seem to be common among Odysseys. I had mine replaced three times in the last two years. Costs can add up quickly, so I’m exploring do-it-yourself options next time.
Wow! That’s a lot. I’m curious if anyone has found a reliable mechanic for these issues. A trustworthy shop could save us some money.

I consistently face maintenance challenges too. The cost of parts is insane! I’ve considered joining a local Odyssey owners group for advice on affordable repairs.
That’s a great idea, Alexander! I’ve heard local groups can provide valuable tips and even discounts on parts. I’m game for anything that helps with costs.
The high cost of repairs is insane! I feel like I should’ve bought a used Kia instead. Trying to figure out if a reliable extended warranty is worth it for maintenance peace of mind.
