1 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem

Failure Date: 09/05/2014

I started driving down a freeway side-road and as I approached a stop sign the brakes slowly went down to the floor. Using the regular brakes and the emergency brake I stopped without incident. I pulled over and found that the brake line had a large leak approximately in the middle and underneath the car. As I worked on replacing all of the brake lines one of the fuel lines also collapsed so I replaced all of the fuel and brake lines to be certain of their reliability.

2 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem

Failure Date: 04/05/2013

Got in vehicle and had no brakes. No warning. Jst no brakes. This was due to rust eating a hole in the brake line. The fuel lines are the same way. In fact, the entire undercarriage is rust.

3 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem

Failure Date: 08/10/2005

The subframe, brake lines, fuel lines, and suspension, on the front passenger side, have all rusted out to the point of failure due to a poorly designed a/c drain hose. The dealer should have noticed this was a problem during any of the later service visits. Honda should take action on this dangerous situation.
