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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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.

Recently purchased a 2007 honda odyssey, and the brakes don't work well. The pedal is very soft and not very responsive. I have never had a car that stopped so poorly. It takes twice the effort of my other car to get the van stopped. Not a very safe feeling at all. So far no incidents but in an emergency i could see a future problem developing. I did have the dealer service department look at the brakes and they…

We bought a used 2007 honda odyssey ex-l from a dealership, and noticed the brake pedal to be spongy. The van stops slower than other vehicles on the road under normal following distance, and creates a hazardous situation every time someone in front makes a hard braking and waits for left turn at the last minute. Once i overshot a stop sign before main road but fortunately there were no other cars. I found honda tsb…

2007 honda odyssey brake pedal travels too far (when you first get into the odyssey and press down on the brake pedal, it will go to the floor) and it is soft/mushy. [this issue was present before the recall earlier this year, and is still an issue since the recall repair was made.] this becomes an issue when i drive a different vehicle which has a "normal" hard brake pedal and requires much more force to stop the…
