Odyssey 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 33,691 miles
Purchased 2006 Odyssey touring edition new in February 2006. At about 10,000 miles started hearing intermittent grinding noise and feeling steering wheel vibrate while braking. Vehicle taken to Honda dealers three times. First two times dealer stated they could not duplicate problem. Took car to dealer at 30,472 miles. And the dealer stated the problem was with warped rotors, and that I could pay to have them machined smooth. Took car to different dealer at 33,691 miles. They replaced front pads and machined rotors under warranty due to service bulletin being issued for brake noise.
