2006 ODYSSEY HAS WARPED BRAKE ROTORS, BUT THE ORIGINAL BRAKE PADS ARE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE. ACCORDING TO DEALERSHIP; THIS IS "VERY NORMAL" FOR ODYSSEY EVEN FOR 1 OR 2 YEAR OLD VAN. MY ROTORS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THEY ARE WARPED, NOT DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR (BECOMING TOO THIN). THIS IS MORE LIKE A MANUFACTURE DEFECT PARTS THAN NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR PROBLEM. *JS

I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A HONDA ODYSSEY 2006 EX-L, I HAVE RELIGIOUSLY MAINTAINED IT AND HAVE USED HONDA FILTERS, OILS AND LUBRICANTS, HAVE DONE OIL CHANGES EVERY 7,500 PER HONDA MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE AND REPLACED TRANNY FLUID EVERY 15,000 MILES, ESPECIALLY AFTER KNOWING THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH PREVIOUS ODYSSEY'S AND CURRENT ONES. AT 52,000 MILES I HAD TO REPLACE A BROKEN MOTOR MOUNT (KNOWN ISSUE THAT HONDA WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE) THANKFULLY EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERED IT. AT 90,700 (MY EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 85,200 MILES) MY TRANSMISSION STARTED MAKING A WHINING NOISE (I HAVE HAD 2 INDEPENDENT MECHANICS AND A HONDA DEALERSHIP VERIFY THE TRANNY IS GOING SOUTH). IN ADDITION TO THE MOTOR MOUNT AND TRANSMISSION ISSUES, THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD RECALLS TO REPLACE FRONT BRAKE PADS, BRAKE MASTER "O" RING, POWER STEERING PUMP AND PAINT PEELING. FOR A $33K VEHICLE, IT SURE IS A LEMON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES FELT LIKE THEY WERE GRINDING WHENEVER THEY WERE ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THEY PERFORMED THE REPAIRS ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V504000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:MASTER CYLINDER).

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 83,000.

2006 ODYSSEY WITH 55,000 MI WAS TAKEN TO DEALER FOR POWER BRAKE MODULE REPLACEMENT RECALL CAMPAIGN. WHEN VEHICLE WAS RETURNED, BRAKES WERE MUSHY AND SOFT. ADDITIONAL STOPPING DISTANCE WAS REQUIRED TO STOP VAN SAFELY. DANGEROUS BRAKING CONDITION EXISTED. CAN NOT BELIEVE DEALER RETURNED VEHICLE IN THIS DANGEROUS CONDITION! WHEN VAN WAS RETURNED TO DEALER THEY SAID VAN HAD BEEN ROAD TESTED PRIOR TO CUSTOMER PICK UP AND THAT IT WAS FINE THEN. NOT POSSIBLE! NO SERVICE TECHNICIAN WOULD RELEASE A VEHICLE IN THAT DANGEROUS CONDITION IF IT HAD BEEN ROAD TESTED. DEALER CORRECTED CONDITION BY BLEEDING BRAKE LINES AT NO COST TO OWNER. *TR
