Hi. I have a 2002 Honda Odyssey with a "sinking brake" problem. I am being told that the problem is normal per a "1995" Honda service news. The brake pedal moves towards the floor when the van is stopped and feels like a faulty master cylinder. Honda of America has been unresponsive to my concerns. I am told it is common yet no mention is made in the handbook and the repairman at the local dealer where I bought the van had no immediate knowledge of the problem. My biggest concern is that since a brake pedal that sinks is a sign of a failing master cylinder, when do I (or my wife who is the primary driver)get concerned. If we treat the sinking brake pedal as normal and the master cylinder does fail, we could be involved in a rearend accident. Why has not Honda engineered this problem out since 1995? please get Honda of America to answer my concerns. Sincerely, charles b. Hendrix.

While driving through Lincoln tunnel out of nyc, brake pedal depressed all the way to the floor! I was unable to get any stopping power with the floor brake (front disk w/abs). Fortunately, I was at the bottom of the tunnel at the time and was able to use a combination of gravity, downshifting, and the emergency brake to slow speed and get to the nearest rest area after a frightening three mile journey. Aaa towed the vehicle. An independent mechanic was unable to reproduce the problem the following day, and Honda of north America was extremely unpleasant when we reported this problem. We are awaiting the report from the Honda mechanics at this time, but are now scared to drive this vehicle. If the brakes had failed under different circumstances, we'd have had a major collision. Please investigate this problem!.

When driving at any speed and applying the brakes, brake pedal goes down slowly to the floorboard, and vehicle is still moving. Two 0-rings in master cylinder have been replaced but pedal still goes down.
