My daughter was driving her 2003 Honda Accord under sunny skies and good road conditions. As she slowed and made a slight right hand turn to enter an exit ramp off of I-26 outside of charleston SC, the brakes locked up pulling her towards the concrete barrier on her right hand side. She instictively pulled the car back to the left. At this time the brakes released and she went into the left concrete barrier. Both her and a friend who was riding with her were not seriously hurt. The car sustained approximately $4,900 in damages. She estimated that she was going 40 mph at the time when the brakes locked up. The brakes have not been looked at in detail yet. After repairs we will have them inspected. Looking into the history of the 2003 Accord showed me that this model has a long history of brake problems with many people complaining. When I discussed this with my local dealer, hendrick Honda, they informed me that they thought there was not a history of bad brakes on this car. I feel otherwise. Because the car was in the way of traffic and could still be driven, my daughters friend drove it out of the way and no police report was filed. One last thing. These brakes have locked up on me a idle speeds and had been checked previously by hendrick Honda. When checked, they said they were serviceable.

My 2003 Honda Accord ex needed new rotors and brake pads at 11,000 miles. I do not ride the brake and am rarely (maybe once every 2-3 months) in stop and go traffic. I was charged $350 by my dealer to get this problem fixed. I started to wonder why my car had this problem. After internet research, I am finding out I am not the only one with this problem. In fact, it's quite common and something needs to be done.
