My vsa light came on and is an added feature for stability to prevent overturning, the cost to replace the module is over 1200 dollars. My year, make, and model has had recalls for this issue but my vin # pulls up no recalls. I have twin toddlers and feel this is a safety feature i would like repaired on the manufactures side, not out of my pocket, thanks

Persistent problems with the brake system since the 2010 vsa/abs modulator recall. They system continues to have a soft pedal which requires pumpung the pedal to get effective braking, resulting in extended stop distances. The system requires periodic bleeding of the brakes despite repeated assurances from honda dealers that the system is/was fixed correctly under the recall. The vsa modulator has now failed and…

In february 2008, i purchased a new honda odyssey minivan for my family. In the spring of 2010, i began to experience the following problem: after making a turn (right or left),during acceleration, the odyssey's brakes will automatically engage, immediately slowing the van down. When this happens, the vehicle decelerates from 55mph to 20mph in seconds, engaging the shoulder harness of our seat-belts. Over the past…

As i accelerated onto the road, my odyssey braked hard and suddenly. The vehicle behind me, also accelerating, jerked and swerved around me to avoid collision (this seen in rear view mirror). I pulled over and stopped, restarted and listened to the engine, and looked for indicator lights. I resumed driving only to have the sudden braking recur a mile up the road. At that point i spoke with my husband on the phone…

Minivan was brought to dealer to fix an overly-soft brake pedal, per a recall letter.

Car was returned to the (same) dealer twice more, with no improvement. Calls to honda brought no results. Although there may be a…
