Affected 2019-2022 Passports can have a low-pressure fuel pump impeller made of low-density resin that deforms and rubs against the housing, causing the pump to fail. The engine may stall without warning, crank without starting, run rough, or hesitate under load, and a fully failed pump leaves the vehicle unable to start. Check the VIN through NHTSA and Honda's owner site for recalls 20V-303 or 23V-346, and confirm the free dealer replacement was completed.
The 2019-2025 Passport's ZF 9-speed automatic, most commonly in 2019-2020 models, can shift harshly or hesitate from a stop, clunk between gears, and shudder at highway speeds. Test repeated stop-and-go launches and low-speed rolling stops, and check service records for transmission control module software updates. If left untreated, severe cases can require valve body replacement or complete transmission replacement.
The Display Audio system in 2019-2025 Passports can lag several seconds behind inputs, freeze or black-screen, drop Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections, and delay or blank the backup camera image. Spend at least ten minutes exercising navigation, radio, Bluetooth, phone projection, and the camera, then cycle the ignition to check for proper rebooting. This is a recurring electronics defect that degrades daily usability, though it is not a safety recall.
2019-2020 Passports commonly suffer parasitic battery drain, often traced to the telematics control unit or infotainment system failing to enter sleep mode, leaving the battery dead after one to three days of sitting. Check battery voltage with the car off, expecting about 12.4-12.6 volts in a healthy battery, and ask about any prior dead-battery visits or parasitic-draw testing. Repeated deep discharges shorten battery life and can leave the vehicle unable to start.
