What's wrong?

The Bridgestone Turanza EL440 tire on the 2022 Honda Odyssey is the air-sealed part that carries the van's weight and keeps the wheel in steady contact with the road. Its inner liner works like an airtight layer inside the tire, holding pressure between service checks and daily driving.

On the affected Odyssey vehicles, one tire from the suspect production group has pinhole damage through that inner liner. A pinhole is small, but it gives air a path out of the tire. The result is a slow leak that drops tire pressure over time, which is why the tire does not meet the federal performance standard for light-vehicle radial tires.

There is no warning sign before failure. The problem is inside the tire liner, so the tire can lose air slowly before the owner has a clear sign at the wheel.

A matching year and model does not guarantee inclusion. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific minivan is included.

What's the safety risk?

A tire with a slow air leak can lose performance and increase the risk of a crash. Schedule the inspection soon, and avoid putting extra miles on the vehicle until a dealer checks the tires. Repair is free at any franchised Honda dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Honda Odyssey is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Honda dealer to schedule the free inspection of all four Bridgestone tires and replacement of any tire with a pinhole causing a slow air leak.
  3. Bring the recall notice Honda mailed, or reference recall number 21V768 and Honda recall HBL when you call.
  4. Monitor tire pressure and avoid driving on a low tire until the dealer completes the inspection.
  5. Call Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138 with questions about scheduling or tire replacement.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Honda technician inspects all four tires for pinholes that cause a slow air leak. If a pinhole is found, the tire is replaced. The inspection, replacement tire, and labor are free under the recall. If you paid out of pocket for this tire repair before the recall work was completed, Honda's recall reimbursement plan covers eligible documented expenses. Bring receipts or repair paperwork to the service desk and ask Honda customer service how to submit the claim.
