What to check on a used 2010 Honda Odyssey

  • Body: look under the car for rust or damaged subframe and rocker areas, and check panel gaps for signs of repair.
  • Engine: cold-start it yourself, listen for ticking or knocking, check for oil leaks and oil consumption, and ask for oil-change records.
  • Brakes: check pedal feel, pulling and grinding, and look at rotor and pad wear; ask when the brake fluid was last changed.
  • Electrical: test every light, window, lock, the infotainment screen and the charging system; scan for stored fault codes.
  • Recalls: confirm each of the 2 campaigns above was completed on this VIN; open recalls are repaired free at a dealer.
  • History: run the VIN for salvage, theft and odometer records, and have an independent mechanic inspect the car before you pay.
