What owners wrote
The problem that created the unsafe condition was unintentional spontaneous acceleration while depressing the brake to complete the stop while parking the vehicle. The vehicle 2008 odyssey was going very slow (just made a right turn on road) in a residential area, for the house we were visiting was on the corner. We then turned another right to park in a private parking area. Immediately before coming to a complete stop, the vehicle lurches forward while the engine was revving and sounding very loud.
