OUR 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY'S BRAKE PEDAL WAS FINE UNTIL THE DEALER REPLACE THE VSA MODULATOR DUE TO FAILURE ON OCT 8,2008.THE BRAKE PEDAL FEEL VERY LOW AND SPONGY WHEN APPLY BRAKE PRESSURE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND HAVE THEM CHECK FOR PROBLEM ON OCT 16, 2008.THEY FOUND SMALL AIR POCKET IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND BLEED THE SYSTEM BUT STILL LITTLE LOW. ON NOV 9, 2009, WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER FOR A 15,000 MILES SERVICES AND HAVE THEM CHECK THE LOW BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN. THEY EVEN FLUSH THE BRAKING SYSTEM TWICE AND STILL FOUND PEDAL SLIGHTLY LOW. OUR QUESTION IS WHY DOES HONDA NOT INCLUDE OUR 2006 ODYSSEY IN THE 2007 & 2008 ODYSSEY RECALL AS WELL IF IT PRESENT THE SAME PROBLEM FOR OUR 2006. VSA MODULATOR WHERE SMALL POCKET OF AIR CAN GET INTO THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND CAN CAUSE LOW BRAKE PEDAL AND LONGER STOPPING DISTANCE. *TR
