One problem related to brakes failed has been reported for the 2012 Honda Odyssey. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2012 Honda Odyssey based on all problems reported for the 2012 Odyssey.
For several months, have notice a shaking of the automobile when braking. Recently it has become severe enough that I considered it a safety hazard and took to dealer. Dealer service stated that rotors were warped and need to resurfaced. Service rep stated that this is fairly common on Odyssey, but considered normal wear and tear. Have never seen brake rotors warp at 30k miles. Major of mileage on car due to highway travel; not stop and go city travel. This seems to be premature for a brake failure. I am having the brake rotors resurfaced (as recommended by Honda service), but am concerned that this issue will return (since they will be the same rotors).
