Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I would have to agree with the owner that submitted odi case #:10169618 (see below), our 2006 odyssey is experiencing the same problem with the left front brake. it just so happens that i am taking it to the dealer tomorrow just because it has finally gotten to the point that my wife now notices it and can pin point where she believes it is coming from. honda dealers recommend at 15k as part of their minor service caliber lubrication. if this is such an issue with the calipers why don't they include this as a warranty checkup for the brake pads, instead they decide to charge us for their labor. this problem with the brakes as described below has happened around 8 different times over a span of 4 months. vehicle currently has 17k on it. case #10169618 the honda odyssey in question was purchased in the 1st week of january 2006 and had about 6000 miles on it. i noticed that the front brakes were making grinding noises while stopping. these noises are not so prominent when the brakes are applied mildly (as in the case of coasting to a stop), but are clearly heard inside the cabin when the brakes are applied a little more firmly (as one would do it to bring the vehicle to a halt quickly). i took the vehicle to a honda dealership to have this looked at. later in the day i was informed that and the front brake pads have been replaced and the rotors refinished due to a defect in the front brake pads. i have a reason to believe that there have been more cases of this happening and i would like to request nhtsa to look into whether this is a more prevalent problem than just a random incident. *nm |
