| Vsa (vehicle stability assist) modulator failed upon engine start up in a honda odyssey mini-van with just over 19,000 total miles. downloaded diagnostic code confirmed failure of the vsa modulator. vsa failure also means loss of abs function on the brakes. component price is nearly $1000. this is a very expensive component failure after very little actual use of the van. vehicle is out of warranty based on elapsed time. research indicates that early (low mileage) vsa modulator failures are very common in honda odysseys and other honda vehicles. *tr | |||

| This is a potential fix for the brake grinding complaints in summer while braking on a downward slope. it happens to my 2005 honda odyssey touring frequently too. it happened in the morning of june 1 2012 and when i got home, i power washed my vehicle, including the wheels which were dirty with brake dust. when i braked on the same hill two hours later, no grinding and no fading of brakes. hope this continues to work and helps others. | |||

| Recently noticed like the brakes are not released fully after the application resulting in a falt tire feeling with noise took the minivan for scheuled recall service. per service person, they replaced the caps of brake master cylinder. driving back home @ 70 miles, felt like the steering loosing control, stopped at the near by chevorlet service center: they didn't felt any major issues with the steering but felt like the service wasn't done as they said. all the dust was evenly there all over the master cylinder: all over the bonnet. i feel no change with the friction noise from the brakes: a little worse? how do i ensure that a genuine service was done? now i feel insecure to drive on this, like driving on black ices. the electronic system was rest last time, but not it is back to not working good: resulting with trouble with the a/c knob not working smoothly. | |||
