2 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 01/02/2010

2005 Honda Accord needs its second brake job. First brake job at 30,000 and now 2nd at 60,000. Honda states they are warping the front end to heat to such a degree that is warping my brakes and putting me an d my family at risk? what is causing, I don't live in an area where I ride my brakes, there are no hills, I've less than 4 miles from where I work. They suggest resurfacing and replacing the pads for the second time. Not sure why this is a recurring problem with this vehicle. There has to be some type of defect that is causing this to re-occur once maybe but twice.

3 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 06/16/2009

At 12k reported a brake problem. Dealer could not identify cause and turned rotors front and rear and replaced the pads. At approximately 24k, same issue again. Dealer could not identify cause and replaced pads front and rear and turned rotors. The shake and vibration returned at just past the 36k warranty period. Car is now at 49k, left rear brake is worn out and the rotor is badly scored. Honda refused to provide any further factory assistance and stated it is my responsibility at this point. It is my contention that the car has had a safety issue with the brake system since new and Honda through it's dealer has not taken the proper steps to identify the issue and correct it, rather performed a bandaid fix and sent me on my way. This car is unsafe at this time and has been since new.
