Honda Odyssey Service Brakes Safety Report | July 01, 2011
Reported on July 01, 2011
| WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THE DEALER TOLD US THE ODYSSEY HAS A NEW AND IMPROVED BREAKING SYSTEM. SIX MONTHS AFTER WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE WE HAD A WOBBLE WHEN BREAKING (8,000 MI). WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WERE TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG. THE ISSUE CONTINUED TO GET WORSE AND WE RETURNED AGAIN AT 20,000 MILES. AT THAT POINT WE WERE TOLD THE ROTORS WERE WARPED BUT IT IS AN ANNOYANCE AND NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. NOW AT 38,000 MILES THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN BREAKING. I AM TOLD ITS MY DRIVING HABITS THAT CAUSED THIS. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANOTHER CAR WITH BREAK ISSUES PRIOR TOT 50,000 MILES. THE DEALER WANTS $350 TO FIX WITH NO GUARANTEE THE ISSUE WILL NOT OCCUR IN ANOTHER 8K MILES. | |
