Description of the problem	On 12/26/07, i had a very bad accident hitting 2 cars and all of the air bags in our new 07 honda odyssey deployed. My wife was in the car, i was driving and we were exiting the highway with the cruise control on and turned onto the off ramp when the brakes completely failed; i stepped on the brakes repeatedly and they were so soft they went completely to the floor board and the car would not stop and the cruise control would not turn off. The ramp was about 100 yards long, so we would have had plenty of time to stop if the brakes worked. The ramp was uphill and because the cruise control did not go off, the car started to accelerate and we were going faster and faster up the off ramp. We had no previous warning and did not experience any problem with the brakes prior. At the top of the ramp was a light that stopped traffic on the road, we were the first off the highway onto the ramp and because i could not stop, we reached the light (green) for us, crossed over a median and hit two cars on other side waiting for light to change and crashed. I could not turn due to the speed and we would have rolled if i did. Every air bag in our ody deployed, the seat belts held us back and fortunately we were not hurt. Driver of one of the cars was taken to the hospital; unsure of her injuries. After 7 months of our car being repaired, the car was taken to a honda dealer who finally tested the car and brakes and determined that the abs/vsa modulator circuit needed to be replaced under warranty and brake lines had air in them. They replaced the assembly, bled the brake hydraulic system. There is definitely a problem with the 2007 odyssey brakes. We had taken the car into dealer for oil change and checkup just 2 days before accident happened. Our brakes went out with absolutely no warning whatsoever -- we or someone else could have been killed, as the accident was bad. The car was repaired, rather than being totaled at time of accident.
