Tl* the contact owns a 2007 honda odyssey. the contact stated that after the vehicle was serviced for an unknown recall, the check engine and abs warning lights illuminated. the vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the master cylinder needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and stated that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 10v504000 (service brakes, hydraulic). the failure mileage was 114,256.

I forgot to add the recall number on the vsa device that locks up without drivers involvement and causes accidents. i was told by honda it is 13-098 in my former complaint today. bottom line, if i drive it with this unsafe condition and it locks up and causes an accident, who is liable for damages etc? if i don't drive it i have no car until repaired. does or is honda responsible to provide us a car until ours is repaired and safe again. i received a recall notice and now tom scott honda in nampa id said they can't repair it until sometime next year because they can't get parts until then. from my understanding this vehicle is being recalled because the brakes lock up do to the vsa device malfunctioning and causing accidents in which people are getting hurt. what is the answer? *tr

I was driving in the highway at approximately 30 mph and accelerating when suddenly my minivan brakes by itself. it was like someone else was controlling the brake pedal for me. it was horrifying. it pulled over and waited until i was ok to drive again. i continue driving and again when i was accelerating the brake pedal went all the way down and braked to almost a complete stop. i decided to keep on driving to get to the nearest safest place to park and call for assistance and the same thing happened two more times until i parked and turned off the vehicle. i had to call for a relative assistance getting back home because i was driving with my three children and i didn't want to endanger them. my husband took the minivan home and it didn't do it again. i haven't drive it since i'm terrified it can do it again when i'm driving in the highway at high speed and cause and accident that can be fatal to my family, other drivers and me.

This complaint is about the raybestos's advanced technology rotors (model #980290) that i brought at o'reilly auto part store and installed on my 2007 honda odyssey in 06/26/2011. last week on 06/23/2013 while inspecting the pulsation issues, i found fine cracks on both rotors. with curiosity i searched "raybestos rotor cracks" over the internet and i found the brake rotor safety public awareness published at the raybestos site. based on the information from raybestos, certain imported brake rotors including raybestos brand have this issue. i checked the box and found the rotors were made in china. their site provided nhtsa link to file complaint.

I was driving with cruise control off at a constant speed of 45 mph on level ground. brakes spontaneously activated with moderately hard force, slowing car to 30 mph, then releasing. no warning lights on instrument cluster, and all four wheels appeared to be involved. engine rpm did decrease during this event. the spontaneous braking recurred twice within two miles with the same fairly spirited deceleration experienced. the vsa was switched to the off setting, and no other episodes of spontaneous braking were noted for the remaining one mile of the journey. fuel level at 80%, car is very well maintained. no aberrant sounds were generated. updated 03/09/12 *tr

I am getting a thud sound from the back of my 2007 odyssey mini van. we called honda and they said they have had several people come in with this. they found that there is a glazing that happens with the brakes and they said they have to grind the drums and it makes it go away for awhile. they said if the brake shoes are ok it would run about $200.00. this is crazy if they have a problem with the brakes other than wear and tear they should fix it for free. i have put two sets of brakes on this van since i bought it and i have never had brakes go so fast. i believe they have a very poor design. if i had not bought the extended warranty i would have been out 1000 of dollars with all the problem this 2007 honda has had. if i had it to do over again i would not buy another honda. the windshield whistles, the transmission part had to be replaced, the compressor melted, the battery went dead on a trip before a year was up. the bearings in ...

Soft brake pedal even after tsb was performed. several other people are complaining about this same subject matter on the honda odyssey.

Brakes failed causing a crash. we bought the vehicle brand new in 2007 and have noticed spongy, soft, hard to stop brakes from the beginning. dealerships, we have taken it to more than one, always say it's fine, no failure, no problem can be repeated. we had the brakes replaced just in case and have had both recall jobs fixed, one just last week. this week cars stopped short in front of my husband while he was driving, he could not stop, tried to slam brakes and the van would not stop, he put the pedal to the floor and nothing. he hit the car in front of him. we have had a few problems with trying to stop short in the past but have avoided a crash before. a recall is just not enough, it didn't fix the problem for our van. also the airbag did not deploy.

There has been a number of recalls on the brake system. but, there continues to be air introduced into the system causing a soft pedal. this leads to reduced brake effectiveness.
