1 Brake Foundation Components problem of the 2007 Honda Odyssey

Failure Date: 04/09/2008

I am a mechanic at a school district and we have purchased 3 2007 Odyssey vans. We are experiencing soft brakes on all three vans. One of the vans had a complaint of hard stopping I. E. Too long of distance. Upon test driving the van I did notice that the brakes were very mushy. I drove one of the other new vans and pretty much the same thing, mushy brakes. I took van to the dealer and they tried to reproduce problem which they must of because they had for 3 days and were trying to figure out how to fix the problem. They tried bleeding the brakes etc. They ended up replacing the master cylinder. Upon the return of the van I noticed an improvement in pedal feel but the brakes still feel too mushy. You aren't sure where the stopping point or I should say the application point comes into play.

2 Brake Foundation Components problem of the 2005 Honda Odyssey

Failure Date: 12/30/2007

Brakes, when applied at speeds over 60mph cause the van to wobble uncontrollably. Brakes also "whine" when slowing on approach and into a parking space. Dealer has responded that they cannot duplicate issues, so no repairs were made. Issues have continued under normal driving conditions.

3 Brake Foundation Components problem of the 2000 Honda Odyssey

Failure Date: 10/18/2002

Clear driving conditions. No water, oil or mud on pavement. Driver was attentive. I had stopped in turn bay, crossed over three traffic lanes to side street. Then immediately made a left turn into parking lot and a right turn into parking space. As I entered parking space the brake peddle went all the way to the floor without any deceleration, jumped a small curb and hit a tree. I noticed an odor of burning oil or rubber at impact. The Honda dealer checked the brakes and could not find any defect and then denied any liability for accident. Since they could not find a problem, and I know the brake peddle went down to the floor. I am afraid to continue to drive the vehicle as it could happen again and be a more serious accident. Others have reported the same problem to NHTSA. The dealer refused to buy the van back at any price even after the damage was restored to its original condition. Dt.
