Default 2014 Crosstour starting problem

I have a 2014 Honda Crosstour 4WD EXL V6 with 105,000 miles. At about 80,000 miles I would have an occasional problem starting. I would step on the brake and push starter button and it would fail. If I waited a minute and did it again it would start right up. This would happen once every 2 or 3 weeks and then start right up. My mechanic, who I trust, thought I should replace the ignition which I did at 90,000 miles . The issue continues every few weeks. It seems like the issue has something to do with some connection not being made when I step on the brake. Love the car but this issue makes me crazy.

Guessing should check the brake switch to see if it is functioning
Personally, would clean battery posts and cable terminals with a wire brush to eliminate corrosion as a possible cause.

Sorry, I meant brake switch. You might find the switch is faulty??
Cam and crank sensors are next suspects.
Do a visual inspection of wiring
Sometime you might catch a problem with the wiring??
