SERVICE BRAKES
1st incident Fall 2023 Approaching a stop sign, decelerating from 30mph I pressed on the brake to complete the stop but the engine roared, RPMs revved, & the vehicle accelerated, better it lurched, forward. I mashed down the brake pedal as hard as I could but it would not stop the vehicle. All I could do was put it into park. Happens almost weekly, at least 7 times, but not predictably. Once in December, I was approaching a four way stop sign around 3:30pm, I had been driving the vehicle for approximately 30 minutes & the weather was good (no ice, partly cloudy, roads clear & dry). As I came to the stop sign, pressing the brake the final time to complete the stop, it roared loudly, the RPMs jumped high, and the vehicle surged forward through the intersection. I let off the brake and tried to smash it down again, but it wouldn’t go to the floor (only a mild decompression) so I powered through the intersection, thank God no one was coming. I didn’t pull over or turn the vehicle off, I continued going my way home. 15 minutes later, turning into my driveway the brakes worked normally, like nothing had happened. [XXX] I took it to a Honda dealership. They upgraded the transmission & flushed the transmission lines three times. They were unable to replicate the issue & could not detect any codes or communication of an issue in the system. I took it home with no answers. [XXX] I was approaching a stoplight to turn left. I was driving, my brother was in the passenger seat. Weather conditions were good: clear skies, no ice/rain/snow, roads dry & clear. I had been driving the vehicle for less than 10 minutes & I had given it ~ 5 minutes to “warm up” since it’s Minnesota. I met a stop sign w/o issue, but then as I approached a nearby stoplight it surged forward just like before. I pressed the brake to complete the stop, the engine roaring so loudly my brother said “it’s gonna blow up!” Back to Honda dealership on [XXX]. Still no resolution. Can’t replicate INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE BRAKING AT 50+MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL STARTS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 58,000 MILES ON IT. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR OVER A YEAR. WE HAVE HAD THE TIRES ROTATED AND BALANCED, THE ROTORS AND BREAK PADS ARE GOOD. THIS IS BECOMING A SAFETY HAZARD AND HONDA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

SERVICE BRAKES
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOW TO RESPOND. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CONCORD HONDA (1461 CONCORD AVE, CONCORD, CA 94520, (855) 679-6829) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ROTORS NEEDED TO BE RESURFACED AND UPGRADED FOR BETTER PERFORMANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SERVICE BRAKES
AT 26608 MILES FRONT ROTORS HAD TO BE RESURFACED. HONDA DEALER DID THIS AT 'NO CHARGE FOR FIRST TIME ONLY.' ROTORS VIBRATED AGAIN AT 50000 MILES AND WERE REPLACED INDEPENDENTLY WITH NON HONDA PARTS. NOW AGAIN AT 70000 MILES THE VIBRATION WHEN BRAKING IS WORSE THAN EVER BEFORE. BRAKE PADS WERE REPLACED AS WELL WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. WITH SO MANY OWNERS HAVING THIS ISSUE HONDA NEEDS TO ADDRESS IT.

SERVICE BRAKES
WE HAVE HAD ON GOING PROBLEMS WITH OUR ROTORS. THEY HAD TO BE MACHINED AFTER ONLY 15,000 MILES AND REPLACE AFTER 30,000 MILES. WE REPLACED THEM WITH HIGH END NAPA ROTORS SINCE WE DID NOT TRUST HONDA ROTORS AND HONDA REFUSED TO REPLACE THEM. NOW AT 54,000 MILES, THE BRAKES ARE SHIMMYING AGAIN.
NHTSA complaint #11191417 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKE ROTORS - DO I REALLY NEED TO GO INTO DETAIL? 54,000 MILES AND FRONT ROTORS HAVE BEEN RESURFACED TWICE AND NOW THE REAR NEED IT AS WELL. SEVERE SHIMMYING/VIBRATION DURING BRAKING. OBVIOUSLY THIS CAUSES INCONSISTENT REACTION FORCES BETWEEN THE TIRE AND ROAD SURFACE THAT COULD CAUSE UNPREDICTABLE VEHICLE RESPONSE! DOES A CHILD NEED TO LOOSE THEIR LIFE BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED? DOES ANYONE READ THESE COMPLAINTS? IS HONDA DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS? HOW HAS THE NHTSA NOT PERFORMED AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS? COME GET MY VAN AND TRY IT OUT!

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND GOING 60MPH OR HIGHER, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES A LOT WHEN I START TO BRAKE AND I HAVE TO PUMP MY BRAKES RATHER THAN A SLOW GRADUAL DEPRESSION OF THE PEDAL LIKE ONE WOULD NORMALLY DO OR ELSE THE VAN BECOMES UNSTABLE. THIS HAS BEEN THE CASE FOR OVER A YEAR.
NHTSA complaint #11129515 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
SERVICE BRAKES
2 POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUES OCCURRING AT 55000 MILES OR LESS WITH NO RECALL FROM HONDA: TRANSMISSION JERKING AT LOW SPEEDS AND WARPED BRAKE ROTORS AT LOW MILEAGE: ISSUE 1: WHEN TRAVELING UP A HILL (SMALL TO MODERATE GRADE) THE VAN HAS A JERKING MOTION AND THE NEEDLE ON THE ODOMETER BOUNCES BACK AND FORTH ABOUT 200 RPMS WITH THE FOOT STEADY ON THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR QUITE SOME TIME ON HILLS BUT NOW AT 55000 MILES THE VAN IS DOING IT ON A LEVEL SERVICE WHILE IN 2ND GEAR (OR WHEN TRANSITIONING TO 2ND FROM 1ST). AGAIN THE FOOT IS STEADY ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE VAN JERKS WITH THE NEEDLE BOUNCING ON THE ODOMETER A FEW HUNDRED RPMS BACK AND FORTH FOR A SHORT BIT UNTIL INTO 3RD GEAR. I READ OF A TSB 16-060 THAT THE CAUSE IS IMPROPER HEATING OF THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE SHORT-TERM FIX IS TO DRAIN AND FILL THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WHILE A FUTURE FIX IS A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT IS NOT YET COMPLETED. ISSUE 2: WHEN BRAKING THERE IS VIOLENT VIBRATIONS IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, DON'T REMEMBER THE DATE BUT WHILE STILL UNDER THE 3 YEAR/36000 MILE WARRANTY, THEY TURNED THE ROTORS WHICH CAUSED THE VIBRATIONS TO GO AWAY. NOW AT 55000 MILES THE VAN IS AGAIN HAVING VIOLENT VIBRATIONS WHILE BRAKING. THE ROTORS SHOULD NOT WARP SO FAST, WITH LOW MILEAGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED SEVERELY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 36,858.

SERVICE BRAKES
COMING DOWN MCDONALDS PASS, THE VAN WAS GOING FASTER THAN I WANTED, 50 OR 60 MILES PER HOUR SO I TAPPED THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN ON CLEAR BLACKTOP, NO ICE. WHEN I DID,THE FRONT END WHEELS SHIMMIED EACH TIME I TAPPED THE BREAKS. IT SCARED ME, BECAUSE IF IT HAD BEEN ICY, I COULD NOT HAVE SLOWED DOWN AT AN APPROPRIATE SPEED TO GET TO A SAFER SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY SLOW DOWN, BUT THE FRONT END KEPT SHIMMYING EACH TIME I TAPPED THE BRAKES GOING DOWN THE STEEP HILL AND THERE WERE CURVES IN THE ROAD AS WELL.

SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS DRIVING (IN MOTION) ON SLIPPERY, WET, BUT ICY ROADS IN TOWN. I WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 20 MPH. TWICE, I HAD TO STOP SLIGHTLY FASTER THAN I NORMALLY WOULD HAVE, BUT WHEN I STARTED TAPPING THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP, THEY FELT LIKE THEY LOCKED UP ON ME AND IT TOOK AWHILE BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO HAVE ANY "BRAKE" FEELING AT ALL! THE WHEEL WALLS, I NOTICED LATER HAVE SMALL SPACE BETWEEN TIRE AND WHEEL WALL, CAUSING SNOW BUILD-UP, WHICH MAY HAVE CAUSED A PROBLEM IN THE BRAKING ABILITY ALSO. AFTER THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE MORE TIMES THROUGHOUT THE WEEK, MY BRAKE SENSOR LIGHT WARNING CAME ON AND HAS STAYED ON NOW. BUT, AFTER I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE CAR WASH AND GOT ALL THE ICE OUT OF THE WHEEL WELLS, THE BRAKES ARE WORKING FINE AND SMOOTH STOPPING, STILL ICY CONDITIONS ON THE ROAD. I THINK THE WHEEL WALLS DON'T HAVE ENOUGH ROOM BETWEEN THE TIRES AND WHEEL WALLS. IN ICY CONDITIONS, IT SEEMS TO BE PUTTING DANGEROUS PRESSURE ON MY BRAKE SYSTEM, WHEN IN MOTION APPLYING THE BRAKES. I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A ROAD WHEN ALL THE ABOVE OCCURRED.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY ROADS @55+ MPH AND APPLYING BRAKES, THE STEERING WHEEL AND VAN BEGIN TO SHAKE AND VIBRATE VIOLENTLY TO THE POINT OF LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THIS BEHAVIOR BEGAN AROUND 25K MILES AND HAS INCREASED IN OCCURANCE AND INTESITY. ONLINE RESEARCH SUGGESTS BAD ROTORS BUT HONDA REFUSES TO RECALL. DEFECTIVE ROTORS SHOULD NOT BE THE RESONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY, IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!!

WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY @ 55MPH AND APPLYING BRAKES, THE STEERING SHAKES/VIBRATES VIOLENTLY. WE ONLY HAVE 39K MILES ON THE CAR. WE LIVE IN SOUTH-EASTERN CONNECTICUT AND WE DON'T DRIVE FAST ANYWHERE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH HONDA HAS HAD BAD ROTORS AND THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THE PART ON THEIR TIME AND COST. ONLINE FORUMS INDICATE HONDA HAVE REDESIGNED THE ROTOR, WHICH HAS ELIMINATED THE PROBLEM. THIS ISSUES HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR DRIVING STYLE BUT WITH OUR FAULT FART. I AM REQUESTING YOUR SUPPORTING IN ASKING HONDA TO DO A VOLUNTARY RECALL/REPLACE ON THIS FAULTY PART.

THE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN APPLYING BREAKS. WE ONLY HAVE 30K MILES ON THE CAR. WE LIVE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND WE DON'T DRIVE FAST ANYWHERE. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH HONDA HAS HAD BAD ROTORS AND THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THE PART ON THEIR TIME. SINCE THEY HAVE REDESIGNED THE ROTOR, WHICH HAS ELIMINATED THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE NEVER HAD THE NEED TO CHANGE THE ROTORS AFTER 30K MILES. THIS ISSUES HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR DRIVING STYLE BUT WITH OUR FAULT FART. I GUESS HONDA WILL WAIT FOR PEOPLE TO DIE BEFORE REPLACING THIS. THIS WILL BE OUR LAST HONDA.

AT ABOUT 30,000 MILES, OUR ODYSSEY STARTED TO SHAKE WHEN BRAKING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. IT GENERALLY HAPPENS AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES OF DRIVING. IT IS VERY HARD TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

WHEN DRIVING OVER 100 MILES THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS WARP CAUSING A SAFETY PROBLEM HONDA KNOWS THIS AS THEY HAVE A NEW ROTOR THAT IS VENTED (SEE BULLETIN A14-00080) THAT FITS FROM 2011 TO 2014 ODYSSEY I THINK THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS A DANGEROUS THING BRAKES ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ON THE CAR

SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKE ROTORS ARE FAULTY AND BECOME EASILY WARPED, CAUSING SEVERE SHAKING WHEN BRAKING, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS BUT GENERALLY OVERALL. THE HONDA DEALER ADMITS THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT COVER THE ISSUE UNDER WARRANTY. OUR VAN HAS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES, AND THE ISSUE WAS FIRST NOTICED AROUND 20,000 MILES. WE'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER TWICE, AND THEY OFFERED TO "RESURFACE" THE ROTORS FOR $170 OR REPLACE WITH "UPDATED ROTORS" FOR $562 BUT DECLINED TO COVER UNDER WARRANTY (WE EVEN PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY). I EMAILED THE DEALER WITH MY CONCERNS, AND I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD BE FORWARDED TO MANAGEMENT. I CALLED HONDA AS WELL TO REGISTER A COMPLAINT, AND THE HONDA REPRESENTATIVE SAID SHE WOULD FORWARD OUR CONCERNS TO ENGINEERING.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE TRAVELING HOME FROM A FAMILY TRIP TO OUR LOCAL MOUNTAINS, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHUTTER WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES. THE ELEVATION CHANGE FROM BIG BEAR, CALIFORNIA TO THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL IN HIGHLAND, CALIFORNIA IS APPROXIMATELY 5400 FEET. I WAS NOT "RIDING" THE BRAKES NOR WAS I SPEEDING. I ONLY APPLIED THEM TO APPROPRIATELY SLOW THE VEHICLE IN CURVES. I WAS CONCERNED ENOUGH THAT I WAS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO AFFECTIVELY SLOW THE VEHICLE, OR CONTROL THE VEHICLE, THAT I PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED ALL FOUR BRAKE ROTORS AND SAW NOTHING VISUALLY. WHEN RESUMING DOWN THE HILL, THE SHUTTERING WAS MUCH BETTER FOR A COUPLE OF CURVES AND THEN CONTINUED AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO NURSE THE VEHICLE DOWN THE HILL, UNTIL THEY WERE MORE STRAIGHTAWAYS AND I NEEDED THE BRAKES LESS. THE SHUTTERING DIMINISHED UPON LESS USE/COOLING. UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE, I FOUND THAT OVERHEATING OF THE BRAKE ROTORS IS EXTREMELY COMMON ON MY HONDA VEHICLE. I ALSO LEARNED THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE, SO MUCH SO THAT THEY HAVE REDESIGNED THE REPLACEMENT ROTORS FOR MY VEHICLE. THE REDESIGN INCLUDES ROTOR VENTS TO HELP KEEP THE ROTORS COOL. I FEEL THE DESIGN FLAW OF THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT ROTORS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY HONDA THROUGH A RECALL.

CAR HAS 53,000 MILES ON AND WHILE DRIVING IN SPEEDS ABOVE 30 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL VIOLENTLY SHAKES AND IS WORSENS WITH INCREASED SPEEDS.

LIKE SO MANY OTHER ODYSSEYS, THE BRAKES VIBRATE AND SHAKE THE STEERING WHEEL UNDER HEAVY BRAKING SUCH AS STOPPING AT THE BOTTOM OF A HILL. HONDA HAS COME UP WITH NEW PART #, BUT THEY SAY NOT COVERED ON OUR VEHICLE. SHOULD NOT HAVE TO REPLACE ROTORS & PADS AT 22000 MILES.

HONDA ODYSSEY 2014 AT LESS THEN 20,000 MILES I GOT GOT A VIOLENT SHAKE WHEN BREAKING TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND ALL THEY DID WAS RESURFACE THE ROTORS. NOW AT 33,000 THEY ARE DOING THE SAME THING. CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID THAT IS NORMAL BRAKE WEAR. AFTER DRIVING FOR 40 YRS HOW OR WHAT TYPE OF MATERIAL IS HONDA USING FOR THEIR ROTORS NEVER HAPPENED ON ANY PAST CAR WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE. THIS IS A MAJOR ACCIDENT GOING TO HAPPEN. COMING DOWN A MOUNTAIN ROAD IS DANGEROUS LOOK INTO THIS.

THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES WHEN BRAKING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS STARTED AT ABOUT 30,000 MILES. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER, AND THEY IMMEDIATELY SAID I NEEDED THE BRAKES RESURFACED BEFORE THEY EVEN DROVE THE CAR. THIS TELLS ME THEY ARE AWARE OF A RECURRING ISSUE. AT THIS POINT IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AT 38,000 MILES BECAUSE I HAD ALREADY PURCHASED BRAND NEW TIRES THINKING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I HAD THEM ALIGN THE TIRES THAT DAY, AND THE SHAKING DID NOT GO AWAY. HONDA NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND RECALL FAULTY BRAKES. THEY SHOULD NOT NEED COSTLY REPAIRS AT THIS LOW MILEAGE.
