AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES
YELLOW SRS WARNING LIGHT COME ON WHEN DRIVING ON A ROUGH ROAD. THIS TELLS ME THAT AIR BAG SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IT MAY NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS ISSUE STARTED SINCE 2009. SECOND ISSUE IS THAT FRONT BRAKES VIBRATE SO MUCH. I HAD FULL BRAKE SERVICE AND RESURFACE DISC BUT IT ONLY STOP THIS PROBLEM FOR COUPLE THOUSAND MILES THEN VIBRATION COMES BACK WHEN BRAKING. HIGH SPEED BRAKING CAUSE EVEN MORE VIBRATION. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
EITHER THE BRAKE ROTORS WARP OR THE PADS DEPOSIT SOMETHING ONTO THE ROTORS. THE CAR HABITUALLY GOES THROUGH BRAKES, A SINGLE LONG DESCENT WILL CAUSE BRAND NEW BRAKES TO JUTTER BACK AND FORTH VIOLENTLY, WHICH IS UNNERVING FEELS LIKE IT DECREASES BRAKE EFFECTIVENESS. EVEN IN LIGHT USE THE ROTORS HAVE TO BE SURFACED AND PADS ARE REPLACE TWICE A YEAR. THIS IS MENTIONED VERY FREQUENTLY ONLINE IN FORUMS, AND WHEN BROUGHT UP TO A DEALERSHIP THEY DENY ANY CHRONIC BRAKE PROBLEMS. THEY INSIST DRIVERS MUST BE "RIDING THE BRAKES".

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2014 HONDA ODYSSEY, PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN 2014 AND ALWAYS GARAGE KEPT, RANDOMLY OPENS ALL OF THE WINDOWS AND SUNROOM. I KNOW IF THE REMOTE UNLOCK BUTTON IS HELD DOWN, ALL OF THE WINDOWS AND SUNROOM WILL OPEN, BUT THIS IS NOT THE CASE. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO ONE TOUCHING THE BUTTON. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 30 TIMES NOW, I GO OUT TO MY VAN AND EVERYTHING IS OPENED UP. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST FOUR TIMES NOW WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN CAUSING WATER TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. *TR

I HAVE A PEARL WHITE 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE PAINT IS PEELING UNDER THE BACK GLASS WINDOW NEAR THE WIPER BLADES, DUE TO MANUFACTURE POOR JOB OF PAINTING . THIS WAS REPORTED FROM DIFFERENT PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL AND COLOR. THIS US A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM SINCE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING AND FRUSTRATED THAT IT'S NOT TAKEN CARE BY HONDA. I'VE TRIED BACK IN MAY 2020 WITH AN EMAIL TO HONDA AND ASKED TO TAKE A LOOK BUT WAS NEVER CALLED BACK. I DIDN'T WANT TO GO IN BC OF COVID 19. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I HAVE A 2004 PILOT, NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH PAINT PEELING FOR NO REASON . *TR

THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM (IS) STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AROUND 2000 MILES. THE SCREEN WENT BLACK AND THEN CAME BACK ON. IT PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE. THERE WAS CRACKLING AND STATIC AROUND AND ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. IF SYSTEM WAS ON IT WENT OFF WITH THE CRACKLING AND IF OFF IT CAME ON. THE MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN SAYS NETWORK COMMUNICATION LOST. WHEN OFF THERE IS NO GPS, NO BACKUP CAMERA, NO SPEED LIMIT NOTICE, NO CLIMATE CONTROL ADJUSTMENT, NO RADIO, NO CLOCK, NO ANYTHING THAT IS PART OF THE IS. AND PHONES DO NOT CHARGE WHEN SYSTEM IS OFF. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WITH CITY DRIVING AND HIGHWAY DRIVING. IF I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD THE SYSTEM WILL COME ON IF OFF AND OFF IF ON. I CALLED HONDA IN TORRENCE, CA AND WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER: 10288286 ON MARCH 6. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED ON JANUARY 6, 2020. WE LEFT NJ TO DRIVE TO FL ON JANUARY 24. THE SYSTEM HAD BRIEF MOMENTS OF BLACK OUT BETWEEN JANUARY 6 AND 24. WE WERE MOSTLY WITHOUT THE SYSTEM FOR THE ENTIRE DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO ED MORSE HONDA IN RIVIERA BEACH, FL IN THE BEGINNING OF FEBRUARY AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH PILOTS AND ODYSSEYS. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NEED THE CAR FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND COULD NOT PROMISE THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO FIX IT. HONDA DID NOT HAVE A FIX. THEY HAD NO LOANERS SO I DECIDED TO WAIT UNTIL WE RELOCATED TO ANOTHER AREA OF FL. AT THIS TIME I RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM WAYNE GROSS, SERVICE MANAGER HONDA UNIVERSE, WELCOMING ME TO THE HONDA FAMILY. I EMAILED HIM ABOUT MY PROBLEM WITH NO RESPONSE. I LATER FOUND OUT HE NO LONGER WORKED THERE. I TOOK IT TO REGAL HONDA IN LAKELAND, FL AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. THEY WOULD STRAIGHTEN OUT THE WIRES BUT WOULD NOT KNOW IF IT WAS FIXED. HONDA HAD NO FIX. I DECIDED TO WAIT UNTIL I RETURNED TO NJ. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA UNIVERSE AND WAS TOLD HONDA HAD A FIX ON MAY 1. I CAN'T CONFIRM THAT WITH HQ OR SERVICE MANAGERS. I DON'T FEEL SAFE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
DANGEROUS BRAKING DUE TO SOFT BRAKE PEDAL; RELATIVE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 10V098000. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY ADDRESSED ON THIS VEHICLE, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE, VEHICLE HAS A TENDENCY TO ROLL THROUGH STOP SIGNS OR STOP LIGHTS IF DRIVER IS NOT CAREFUL TO BEGIN STOPPING EARLIER THAN NORMAL. VEHICLE HAS A NEW MASTER CYLINDER INSTALLED YET THE PROBLEM REMAINS. ELEVATED VEHICLE ON JACK STANDS TO CHECK CALIPER FUNCTION. DISCOVERED ONLY TWO WHEELS ARE BRAKING. WITH ENGINE RUNNING, WHILE ON JACK STANDS, I HAD MY WIFE PRESS AND HOLD THE BRAKE PEDAL WHILE I ATTEMPTED TO ROLL EACH WHEEL; THE LEFT FRONT AND RIGHT REAR WHEELS ROLLED FREELY WITH BRAKE PEDAL PRESSED, AND THE RIGHT FRONT AND LEFT REAR WERE UNABLE TO BE ROLLED WITH BRAKE PEDAL PRESSED. WITH BRAKE PEDAL PRESSED AND A PROPER BLEEDING SEQUENCE, I OPENED THE BLEEDER VALVE ON THE CALIPERS. THE LEFT FRONT AND RIGHT REAR CALIPERS EXHIBITED NO FLUID PRESSURE. IT IS KNOWN THIS VEHICLE BRAKING SYSTEM IS MADE UP OF TWO HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS LINKING THE LEFT FRONT WITH THE RIGHT REAR, AND LINKING THE RIGHT FRONT WITH THE LEFT REAR. SOMETHING LINKED TO THE PREVIOUS RECALL IS CAUSING THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO FAIL AND CONTINUE TO EXHIBIT THE SAME PROBLEM AS BEFORE. *TR
