Honda Odyssey 2023 Safety Features

In the 2023 Honda Odyssey, you can step into the world of safety and security, where cutting-edge safety features blend perfectly with the art of driving. The Odyssey’s safety suite shows how much Honda cares about the safety of its customers. Its main goal is to keep people safe and reduce risks. The Advanced Compatibility EngineeringTM (ACETM) Body Structure is at the heart of its safety design. This engineering marvel is meant to spread the force of a crash evenly throughout the vehicle, making it safer for both the people inside and the people in other cars. Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is like a watchful friend. It uses sensors to detect possible frontal collisions and warns the driver in time. The Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM) is a technological wonder that instantly puts on the brakes if a crash is about to happen. The Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM) is another safety feature of the Odyssey. It makes sure that any unintentional lane changes are met with signs and corrective actions. The Blind Spot Information System (BSI) with Cross Traffic Monitor makes you more aware of your surroundings, and the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) keeps a safe space between you and the car in front of you, no matter how busy the road is. The Odyssey stays in its lane with the help of the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS). The Odyssey cares about the safety of all of its guests, even the very young ones.

The following checklist will help you take an active role in protecting yourself and your passengers.

Your vehicle is equipped with many features that work together to help protect you and your passengers during a crash.
Some features do not require any action on your part. These include a strong steel framework that forms a safety cage around the passenger compartment, front and rear crush zones, a collapsible steering column, and tensioners that tighten the front seat belts in a sufficient crash.
However, you and your passengers cannot take full advantage of these features unless you remain seated in the correct position and always wear your seat belts. In fact, some safety features can contribute to injuries if they are not used properly.

Safety CheckList

For the safety of you and your passengers, make a habit of checking these items each time before you drive.

• After everyone has entered the vehicle, be sure all doors and the tailgate are closed and locked. Locking the doors and the tailgate helps prevent an occupant from being ejected and an outsider from unexpectedly opening a door or the tailgate.
  Locking/Unlocking the Doors from the Inside
• Adjust your seat to a position suitable for driving. Be sure the front seats are adjusted as far to the rear as possible while allowing the driver to control the vehicle. Sitting too close to a front airbag can result in serious or fatal injury in a crash.
  Seats
• Adjust head restraints to the proper position. Head restraints are most effective when the center of the head restraint aligns with the center of your head. Taller persons should adjust their head restraint to the highest position.
  Adjusting the Front and Second Row Outer and Third Row Outer Head Restraints Positions
• Always wear your seat belt, and make sure you wear it properly. Confirm that any passengers are properly belted as well.
  Fastening a Seat Belt
• Protect children by using seat belts or child seats according to a child’s age, height, and weight.
  Child Safety

If the door and/or tailgate open message appears on the driver information interface, a door and/or the tailgate is not completely closed. Close all doors and the tailgate tightly until the message disappears.
