The front rotors warped and cause the steering wheels and front end of the car to shake whiling breaking at high speed. Shaking isn't noticeable under 30mph but the fast you go, the worst the shaking becomes. We had this issue with our older 2012 odyssey and there was a recall for the it.

The resulting collision happened across the span of half a parking space and knocked the vehicle…

When pulling into a parking space this morning and applying the brakes, the brake pedal did not engage. Pedal went to the floor with no resistance while making a grinding/slipping sound. I was going straight, less than 5 mph. I released the brake and reapplied quickly (pumped the brakes) before brakes finally engaged. This caused me to come very close, almost hitting the parked car in front of me in the parking lot.…

I was in a parking lot going less than 5 miles an hour and was turning right into a parking space. My foot was on the brake, but the car lurched forward and accelerated over the cement chock block, hitting a pole in front of the store.
