The jack on a 2021 Honda Passport is stored in the cargo area under the rear floor panel, with the spare tire. Access it by lifting the floor panel and removing the jack from its cradle alongside the tools.
Where to find the jack
In most 2021 Passport configurations, the spare tire sits under the cargo floor. The accompanying jack and wheel tools are kept in a recessed tray or cradle near the spare, within easy reach when you open the cargo area.
How to access and use the jack
Follow these steps to locate, deploy and stow the jack safely.
- Park on a level surface and engage the parking brake. If you're on the roadside, turn on hazard lights.
- Open the cargo floor by lifting the handle or strap and lift out the floor panel to reveal the spare tire and tool tray.
- Remove the jack from its cradle and verify it is in good condition and properly assembled. Locate the lug wrench as well.
- Loosen the lug nuts on the wheel you’ll change slightly before jacking the vehicle, but do not remove them yet.
- Place the jack at the vehicle’s designated jacking point near the wheel, then slowly raise the car until there is enough clearance to remove the wheel. Follow Honda’s instructions for proper use of the jack to avoid damage.
After changing the tire, lower the car slowly, retighten the lug nuts in a star pattern, and stow the jack and tools back in their cradle under the floor panel.
What’s in the toolkit
Along with the jack, the Passport’s cargo-area toolkit typically includes a lug wrench and a small wheel chock. Some trims also include a tire repair kit instead of a full spare; verify contents in the tool tray.
- Scissor jack (or Honda-specified jack) and jack handle
- Lug wrench for loosening/tightening lug nuts
- Wheel chock or stabilizing accessory
- Spare tire or tire repair kit
Note: If your 2021 Passport was equipped with a tire repair kit rather than a spare tire, you may not find a traditional jack. In that case, follow the kit’s instructions or contact roadside assistance.
Safety tips and alternatives
Always use the vehicle’s recommended jacking points and never place any part of your body under the vehicle while it’s supported only by the jack. If you’re uncomfortable changing a tire, call roadside assistance or a professional service.
Summary
The jack on a 2021 Honda Passport is stored in the cargo area under the rear floor panel, with the spare tire and tools. Access by lifting the floor panel, remove the jack from its cradle, and follow the owner's manual for correct jacking points and steps. Always return the tools to their cradle after use and verify lug nut tightness after reassembly.
