Honda Odyssey 2005: brakes fail when stopping on a curve/turn. Dealership says nothing wrong yet it continues to happen on warm days. During summer months in PA it will happen at least once a day. There is a grinding sound first and then loss of all control of vehicles brakes. Wondering if someone needs to die before this is fixed!?! dealership has had my vehicle many times about this and "everything is fine" continues to happen. The brakes seem soft compared to the loaner they gave me. Please help, this is endangering my family! all recalls for this vehicle have been performed, nothing has helped the brakes including the fix a few years ago. Dealership even tells me they have never heard of this happening yet internet research shows it is happening to others! it occurs during warm weather anywhere from 55 degrees up. The result is driver looses control for a few seconds, long enough to be in an accident, luckily, I have avoided many over the time I have owned the car.
Purchased a brand new Honda Odyssey 2005 ex-l from fremont Honda in 2005. Just after two years when the brakes are hot and are applied sharply e. G. When coming down a hill they make a loud grinding sound. Sound seems to come from the front brakes. I took the vehicle to capitol Honda for a regular oil service and the technician stated the sound is normal, it is the abs kicking in. This is not the case, as I fear the brakes will fail one day as it sounds like metal on metal and may have an accident one day. I have raised this concern with american Honda who handles customer service that there is a design flaw with only 21,000 mile on the van. They stated I am out of warranty over 3 years/ 36,000 miles and to take it back again to the dealer. I will take it to the dealer again on 10/31/08. I want to elevate this issue/ customer concern to NHTSA to investigate grinding brake noise of 2005 Honda Odyssey van. Also conduct a google search on Honda Odyssey grinding brake noise and you will see hundreds of articles - there is clearly a fault that Honda needs to resolve and recall its vehicles and fix free of charge before large scale accidents occur.
Brake failure. Car sent in for repair in August 2005 (dealer gave a handout explaining why brakes were not a problem), September 2005 (dealer replaced brakes), brakes failed January 17, 2006. My husband could have been killed.
