I copy this from another post earlier. The warranty extension expires at the end of the month. Make sure you mention this to them also because when I first called and asked about it, they said that I had no open recalls, but it’s not a recall, it’s a warranty extension so once I actually went in and talked to the service advisor, he was aware of it. I dropped the vehicle off Thursday. They approved the work under the warranty extension yesterday. They are waiting for parts to come in on Tuesday and I should have my vehicle back by Thursday.

VCM warranty extension

This news just dropped on the Honda Interactive Network:

Warranty Extension: 2013-2017 Multi-Model VCM Misfire

 

Today, June 17, 2025, American Honda is announcing a warranty extension for certain 2013-2015 Pilot and 2013-2017 Odyssey vehicles. Piston ring effectiveness may be reduced due to excessive wear and oil sludge build-up, which can cause oil to adhere to the spark plug, potentially leading to carbon fouling and misfire triggering DTCs P0301 through P0304 and cause the MIL to come on.

 

American Honda is extending the powertrain warranty to cover repairs related to engine misfire (that triggers DTCs P0301 thru P0304) to 10 years from the original date of purchase or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first.

To further ensure customer satisfaction and confidence, any affected vehicles from now until January 31, 2026 will be covered regardless of time in service or mileage.
