Consumer Description

While stopped at a stop light at an intersection in our 2021 Hond Odyssey, the idle auto off feature kicked in, and then as we let off the brake and went to hit the gas to move forward the car shut off completely. The car had to be restarted by applying the brake and pressing the start/stop ignition button. This is not the first time this has happened with this vehicle. This also happened a series of times in 2023 and Honda performed a series of software updates, replaced the battery, and replaced a sensor on the battery. However, now two years later the idle auto off issue occured again.
