What owners wrote
January 5th, 2009 I was involved in an accident that I believe was directly linked to the brake issue with my 2007 honda odyssey. I have previously reported the "soft and mushy" brakes to this site and to the local honda dealer multiple times. On the evening of the accident, I should have had plenty of time to stop after the panic stop of a car in front of me, due to another turning driver. However, the brakes went to the floor and did not stop the van in time.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 honda odyssey. The contact stated that the antilock brakes were failing on her vehicle. The vehicle does not stop when the brake pedal is depressed and rolls four to five additional feet before finally stopping. If the vehicle is on an incline, it rolls back even though she is depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and they stated that the brakes were designed to perform in that manner.
