If you need to do a full brake job on the 5th generation Honda Odyssey (years 2018-2026), it may take the good part of an afternoon to do. However, if you don’t need to replace the rotors and only need to change out the brake pads, then you can get it done in an hour or less.

An ongoing issue that can be found on the more recent models of the Honda Odyssey, Honda Passport, and Honda Pilot is a problem where the audio system prematurely malfunctions. These problems will surface only after a few years after purchasing the vehicle new. In fact, there are owners who have experienced this issue immediately right after purchasing their brand new vehicle. With the audio system issues, you might hear no sound or intermittent, popping, and/or crackling noises coming from the speakers. You may also have problems with the infotainment screen going blank or displaying a warning message.

Replacing the brake pads and brake rotors on the 5th generation Honda Odyssey (years 2018-2023) is a rather straight-forward process. These vehicles many people experience vibration when they brake (especially at high speeds or under heavier braking.) The solution to this is usually to replace both brake pads and brake rotors.
