There are 2 owner-reported brakes complaints for the 2025 Honda Odysseyin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Normal speed of 25mph on a clear warm day with no road obstructions when the BRAKE System Indicator (Red) illuminated. I pressed on the brake and had severe resistance and was barely able to stop the car. Two more indicators illuminated. One I believe was the Vehicle Stability Assist and the other I don't recall. The screen flashed "Call your Dealer". The Owners Manual states "Have your vehicle repaired immediately." The vehicle was hauled to Southeast Honda. Codes UO416-680416-F8, U0418-68, U3000-49I. The Brake Booster was replaced. I am concerned that an in-experienced driver traveling at interstate speeds might have a fatal issue.
While driving approximately 40 mph, the vehicles emergency avoidance system activated and applied the brakes very heavily. We were nearly hit by a vehicle behind us, which nearly caused multiple accidents. There was nothing in front of us, and the road was co.pletely clear in front of us.
