Default Honda Recall Transmision Question

Hi, looking at the 04 Honda Odyssey and on Edmunds found this recall.
Does this mean that my ody could be checked via the vin to see if it
was affected and if not I am "OK," so to speak? thanks

ON SOME MINI VANS, AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, CERTAIN OPERATING
CONDITIONS CAN RESULT IN HEAT BUILD-UP BETWEEN THE COUNTERSHAFT AND
SECONDARY SHAFT SECOND GEARS IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION EVENTUALLY
LEADING TO GEAR TOOTH CHIPPING OR GEAR BREAKAGE CAN

Consequence of Defect:

A CRASH.

INCREASE LUBRICATION TO THE SECOND GEAR. ON VEHICLES WITH MORE THAN
15,000 MILES, THE DEALER WILL INSPECT THE TRANSMISS
