2008 Honda Odyssey. Bed break gets soft on the floor. Today I pass red light. Brake pads all good liquid good. I see on net most owners have same problem. On that model and year.
Vehicle has a soft brake, my wife has been complained that the brake pedal feels soft and would go low to the floor for some years now, I continued to service the brakes, pads and rotors and shortly after she would say the pedal is low again. I started to look into this and see if there is any complaints on it and found a NHTSA recall number: 10v-098 that describes exactly whats going on and my local Honda dealer says my VIN shows no recalls. My Honda was made in Nov of 2007 and falls into the years that is affected. Can you look and see if there are any more complaints in this? and this is while vehicle is moving or stationary the pedal gose way to low to the floor.
2008 odyssy with brake problems, front rotors replaced at 20k, recall for air in brake system completed, took back to dealer complaining that air is back. Rebleed system again better, back to dealer about six months later, they say needs brakes replaced at a cost of 400. 00 to 500. 00. Continued to drive vehicle brakes worked okay but shook van when driven for a while, 60k front rotors and back rotor need repair front pads need replacing back pads okay but dealer said again need brakes at all 4 corners. Did the work my self to save money. When bleeding brakes I noticed black colored stuff coming out and lots of air. When will Honda realy fix the brakes? after a family dies because of brake failure. Somthing is wrong with this system. Front rotors twice and rear rotors at 60k. Rear pads were okay but replaced becuase they mad noise real bad.
After driving for several miles and apply the brakes it makes a grinding sound. I have taken it to the dealer ship several times but they could not duplicate the problem and could not solve the problem. The pads were checked each time and were in very good shape.
While I was accelerating at aprox. 40-45 mhp the car suddenly brakes by his own. I saw the brake pedal moving by itself ! I got scared by the consecuences or the risk of having an accident. On the way to my home it happened two (2) more times while getting speed. Went to the dealer but they didn't find anything. One week before the incident the dealer replaced two front brake pads and cut the front rotors because the car vibrated when the brakes were applied. The rotors were attended before. Before this incident the vsa light turned on two times while stepping the brakes and the vehicle used to vibrate. I'm concern for the safety of my kids.
Honda Odyssey 2008 - brake issue - car shudders significantly when the brakes are applied - speeds in excess of 30 mph we have been told by our local Honda dealership that our car is shuddering due to warped rotors - the Odyssey only has 50k on it and there is plenty of brake pad so I am not sure I understand why the rotors would already be warped and need to either be resurfaced or replaced. This seems rather odd and I have seen many other similar complaints out on the web regarding this issue. The service individual at Honda autosport also told me that it was very common for both pads and rotors to be replaced at 35k and that we were very lucky to have 50k on our van with plenty of brake pad remaining. In addition to the significant, almost violent shuddering that impacts steering that occurs when the brakes are applied - when the 2008 Odyssey comes to a stop there is a grinding sound that we have begun to notice in the last 3 weeks which the dealership cannot explain. We also just received the cost of replacing the rotors and brakes - $645 dollars for a car that is just 2 years old - this should not be common place. I have also called and reported this to american Honda, however, they were not very helpful with this matter.
Soft brakes. I bled the brakes, put new brake pads rotors and bled the brakes again same problem. These are the softest brakes that I've ever felt in a vehicle. I bought a 2015 Honda accord and the brakes on that feel like they're high performance compared to this Honda Odyssey. These brakes are terrible and I will not buy another Honda minivan because there are many many Honda Odyssey owners out there with the same problem and Honda says its normal.
2008 Odyssey van brakes have been shaking the steering wheel for about 12,000 miles and I have also complained the pedal feels soft. Honda dealer in dublin say their is nothing wrong. Finally took it to el cerrito Honda and they said the pads have more than 50% left and we have hot spots in the front rotors and it would cost 380 dollars to fix. My question is if I have over 50% of my pads left at 34,000 miles which seem good then how did the hot spots get in the rotors. Hot spot or wrapped rotors are a sign of abuse. I have changed the front rotors myself and the shaking went away but the soft pedal is still present. You can pump the brakes and they will work better!!!!!!.
