Common problems reported by 2025 Honda Passport owners, with recommended fixes and estimated repair costs.

1

Fuel Pump Failure (Recall)

The low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail, causing the engine to stall while driving without warning. This defect affects 2019-2022 Passport models as part of a broad Honda recall affecting millions of vehicles.

Solution

Honda issued recall 23V-858 to replace the fuel pump module free of charge. This expands earlier recall campaigns. Contact your dealer with your VIN to confirm eligibility and schedule the repair.

Est. Cost: Covered under recall
2

Side-View Mirror Glass Detachment (Recall)

The heating pads behind both side-view mirrors may not be properly bonded, allowing the mirror glass to separate from the housing while driving. This creates a visibility hazard and a potential road debris risk for following vehicles.

Solution

Honda issued a recall for 2020-2022 Passport models to replace both side-view mirror assemblies free of charge. Contact your dealer with your VIN.

Est. Cost: Covered under recall
3

Rearview Camera Display Failure (Recall)

A faulty MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) communication coaxial cable connector may prevent the rearview camera image from appearing on the infotainment display when the vehicle is in reverse. The screen may show a black image or an error message.

Solution

Honda issued a recall for 2019-2023 Passport models to replace the MOST cable harness and install a straightening cover free of charge. Contact your dealer to verify VIN eligibility.

Est. Cost: Covered under recall
4

Idle Stop System Failure to Restart

After coming to a stop and the auto idle-stop feature engages (engine shuts off), the vehicle may not automatically restart when the brake is released. The driver must manually restart the engine, which can be alarming in traffic. The issue is related to starter motor or battery management software.

Solution

Honda issued TSB 23-008 to update the idle-stop control software. In some cases, the starter motor or 12V battery may need replacement if they have degraded. The software update is typically free under warranty.

Est. Cost: $0 for software update; $200 - $500 for starter/battery
5

Starter Motor Failure in Cold and Wet Conditions

The engine may fail to crank on initial startup after precipitation and sub-freezing temperatures. Water can enter the starter motor housing and freeze, preventing the starter from engaging. The vehicle displays no-start symptoms but all electronics function normally.

Solution

Honda issued a service bulletin addressing water intrusion into the starter motor. The dealer may replace the starter motor with an updated design that includes improved sealing, or install a protective shield.

Est. Cost: $300 - $700 (may be covered under warranty)
