This is a car i just purchased from owner, my report is the soft brake pedal. Having just put on new pads, it didn't make any change in the pedal as it would with most cars? Is there any recall on this car for brakes. I read where many other owned have this same issue.

The brakes acted as a term stated soft brake pedal. The brakes should have stopped the vehicle in a shorter distance than they actually did. From a speed of approximately 50 mph it took about 150 ft to stop and it still required hitting the car infront of me to stop at about 5 mph. I felt the abs kick in but for pushing the pedal as hard as i could the wheels did not even squeal or chirp. It felt like the vehicle…

Brakes are really weak. Even dealerships are of no help. Honda should be held responsible for any untoward incidents due to these defects. Also vsa modulator is faulty and honda dealership is charging $2k for the repairs!

Recently at 34,000 miles the vsa warning light came on, took it to my local honda dealership and it was diagnosed that the vsa modulator needs to be replaced and that it's dangerous to drive the minivan. A quick search on the internet reveals that the vsa is a common issue. I question the quality of such…

I was driving with my 3 children and approached a stop sign. I pressed my brakes, and they completely froze. I could not push the pedal down. It was like stepping on a brick.
