Loud noise from rear brakes. Squealing, so pulled over. Then drove 8 miles home. Now in 2015 at 33000 miles on the odometer, I've had to replace the rear pads three times, had slides repaired and lubed, two sets of rotors, and now a rear caliber that Honda replaced because I still had a warranty on them. They where found to be seized yet again 12/10/14 after being seized and serviced 5/12/14. Each time I'd notice a smoking or weird noises coming from the rear brakes and then would schedule an appt. Honda should recall these rear brakes or offer some kind of brake upgrade.
My 2008 Honda Accord started making a loud noise after 13,700 miles and specially when the car was put in reverse. The Honda dealer determined that the rear brakes were worn-out. By the way most of the mileage is highway driving.
Rear brakes worn out and making very loud noise.
Inspection of brakes at 28,000 were noted to be good wear, 60% remaining at tire rotation service. At 29,000 miles, loud noise was found to be totally worn rear brakes (only on the inside portion) unevenly worn and not found previously. New brakes replaced but now I expect the same unsafe wearing of this brake. Not sure I am getting full braking control.
My car was making a terrible noise . . I figured the front pads were due for replacement at 30,000 miles . Took it to a shop which was open on Sunday and found that the rear pads were completely gone . The front pads had little if any wear on them According to the sear's tech who did the work. He thought that the premature rear brake pad wear was due to defective spring. I have had no such notification about the problem from Honda as of this date . . . . . When I called hendrick Honda to complain /advise them of the issue ,they knew exactly what I was talking about. . . And said it more than likely would have been covered by the warranty but since I had taken it somewhere else ,he could do nothing for me . . . What am I supposed to do, ride on bad brakes just b/c they aren't open on Sunday??? terrible customer relation.
Around 4:45 p. M. , Thursday, March 11, 2010, I took my 08 Honda Accord to goodson Honda I-45 north, houston, texas, because at approximately 30,000 miles loud noises was coming from the rear of the vehicle. It appeared that I was having serious brake problems. After an inquiry of the brakes quality and performance, the service advisor, carl reed confirmed that the rear brake shoes would be replaced with a better quality. He informed me that Hondas corporate office had selected a new company that would provide better quality, and longer life spans of their brake shoes and pads. In addition, Hondas technician had to replace the front brake pads at approximately 20,000 miles. The qualities of the brake system using low quality brake pads and shoes have proven to be a nuisance for owners. The service advisor, carl reed, drove the vehicle to the rear of customer service and it stayed hidden for about 20 minutes. Then one of Hondas rouge technicians, jose terdomo, drove the vehicle inside the service area where it was visible from a window. He kept the hood of the vehicle open as he removed the rear brake shoes. Around 6:10 repairs were completed, and I checked the vehicle out at 6:19. When I turned the air condition on after departing from goodson Honda service department, contaminated air flowing from the vents initiated an immediate respiratory discomfort. While venturing back and forth to work Friday, 03/12/2010, the air quality that flowed from the vent was unfit for humans to breathe. As it flowed from the air condition vents, it permeated the air with dangerous nanoparticles, lethal chemicals, and irritant gases compressed with tetrafluoroethane (r-134a). This dangerous mixture quickly attacks the respiratory and central nervous systems with its lethal combination. If you need further information, please feel free to contact me.
