Just bought my Accord in September 2013 with 105k miles on it. When I test drove the vehicle I noticed that the brakes were sticky. When I came to a complete stop then when I accelerated it took a second or two for the brakes to release then accelerate again. They told me that they had just replaced the brakes and that's the reason why that it was doing that. So within a month later I brought it in cause the problem never went away. They fixed the problem and just put brake fluid and bleed the brakes. The car ran a little better and the brakes weren't sticking as much. Two months later I had to replace the brake pads. Brakes were still sticky. 3 months later I had to replace them again. Then I noticed that when I would due over 60 mph that when I would press the brakes that the car would shake and pull to the left. I then got a aliment and still the car would shake when I would accelerate and brake. I then replaced all four rotors. Problem stopped. Two months later the cars left lower control arm was giving out. Had to replace both right and left side. One month later I hear the brakes making a loud grinding noise. I had to replace the pads again. I find that every 2 to 3 months I have to replace my brakes. All this money being spent is not fair. Honda needs to recall these brake systems. My airbag light and engine light keeps coming on and off. Also my stereo light goes off and on . Help me please.
07 Honda Accord rear brake pad pins become rusted and will not let the rear brake pads release, causing them to be applied all of the time, on one pad on each side, causing excessive wear and damage to the brake pads and brake rotors. This car has 45000 miles on it and I had to replace the rear pads and rotors on this car. The sides that stuck on my car were the ones without the wear indicators. My wife heard a grinding noise and then I checked out the rear brake system and found the problem. A salesman at advance auto told me to check these pins, because he had seen this problem several times. I think Honda needs to step forward and make this problem known to the public, several have complained on internet web sites about this problem on 07 models, but there seems to be many more complaints coming in on the 08 Accord models.
