The best and worst Honda Passport years, by the numbers
Short answer: among Honda Passports old enough to judge (2019–2022), the 2022 has the fewest owner complaints per 10,000 sold. The 2019 has the most.
We counted every owner complaint filed with the federal government (NHTSA) for each model year and divided by how many were sold that year, so a year that sold more doesn’t look worse just for being popular. Years newer than 2022 are shown but not ranked — they haven’t been on the road long enough. How this is calculated.
Years with the most complaints
2019 Honda Passport · 75.5 per 10,000 sold (3.0× this model’s typical year)
Most-reported: Driver-assist cameras, radar and calibration, typically around 5,000 miles; then body control and other modules.
Years with the fewest complaints
2022 Honda Passport · 14.0 per 10,000 sold (0.5× this model’s typical year)
Most-reported, even so: Driver-assist cameras, radar and calibration.
Every year: complaints per 10,000 sold
Typical Honda Passport year: 25.5 per 10,000 sold.
Complaints are counted once each, even when an owner lists several parts. Sales are US units sold in the calendar year, a close stand-in for the model year.
