Honda Odyssey Problem

The front brake rotors can warp and cause a vibration when braking. The rotors will need to be machined or in cases where they are worn to thin, replaced to correct this issue.

When travelling at 60 mph or over, the car vibrates when stepping on the break.

Warped front rotors by about 15,000 miles. Won't be using O.E.M. junk to replace.

Have put at least three sets of rotors on the front along with pads because of warping.

Our trusted local repair shop just called to say the front brake rotors on our 2010 Honda Odessey are SEVERLY warped and that he has NEVER seen such bad warping at so low a mileage. He suggests that we call the Honda dealer to see if the rotors are under warranty. My wife and I are the only drivers and we are careful drivers and brake carefully at all stops and do NOT drive with two feet.
I think that Honda brakes are lousy and that this is a serious defect with this car. None of our other cars have experienced anything like this with their brakes until at least 50,000 miles.

Noticed that when traveling on the highways that as I slowed the van from 65 to 55 or 70 to 65 that the steering wheel would shake. I took the car in and was told that my rotors were warped and that I needed to smooth them out. I asked how did this happen, since it has never happened to any other car I owned. Was told that if the brakes are hot and they get wet that the rotors will warp. I could not believe it. In 30 years of driving I had never heard of such nonsense. What are you supposed to stop driving in hot wet conditions....in North Carolina. Supposedly the dealer fixed them. Well, now the situation has just returned. I am fed up! Am calling Honda now.
