Brake Disc Pads Problems of Honda Accord - part 2

In late may 2014 I had the breaks (pads/rotors) replaced on my 2010 Honda Accord, 2 months later in August, I had break problems again, - roators were warped again, managed to get them covered under warrantee, - 2 months later 10/31 more break issues so took them to the dealer (so no after market parts), rotors warped, reccomended replacemnt of rotors and pads, - done, 2 months later in December 2014 back to the dealer (now I've pad for them 2x in 6 months)- replaced the front rotors becuase they were warped, now, 2 months later in febuary - back to the dealer again for the 3rd time (1s 2 were not a dealer). This time they were warped, but not as bad - so they machined the rotors becuase this time I went early, when I first stated noticing it. No one figures out why. . . So, in total, my breaks have have been worked on 5 times in 8 months. The dealer said they had a Honda corprate rep take the car for a ride, they were advised there was not a break probelm. But that ride was not till after they machined the rotors, of course there would be no problem - this totally has no logic to even have that done! how many times do I have to have them replaced - under warrentee or not, and how much time and money do I have to waste, and before someone tries to figure out why the caris going thru breaks- mabye getting in an accident? in addition to these ongoing break issue, I've already had to have the 3 pistons rebuilt (under a recall , but I had to fight with the misfire problem for 4 months before they would do anything) and the stearing rack replaced (thank god I had 100 miles left on my extended warrantee).

Rear brake pads and rotors worn out. Front brake pads had approximately 70 percent wear remaining. Contacted Honda customer care and this car was not included, per VIN number, recall for Hondas with pre-mature brake pad wear on the rear.

Took car for routine service and was told rear brake pads and rotors were worn and needed to be replaced, after only 38,856 miles. My VIN number is not listed as eligible in 2010 Honda brake recall settlement. I think Honda should be responsible for these repairs.

Rear brake pads and rotors worn to end of useful life after only 38697 miles.

I purchased my 2010 Honda Accord new 2/2010. I've completed all the necessary maintenance requirements & get my oil changed every 3 months despite what Honda recommends. After hearing a mild grinding sound in the passenger rear tire, I thought it was some dirt/pebble. To my surprise, my mechanic told me my rear brakes were worn down & needed to be replaced at 35,000 mi. My mechanic said he had similar experiences w/ other Honda customers. I replaced the rear brake pads w/ aftermarket brake pads because my mechanic believed they were superior to the Honda brake pads. The front brakes have 80% life. I'¿¿ve never had to replace my brakes on my previous cars w/ mileage under 55,000. I started my research on the internet afterwards & found the 2010 Honda class-action law suit regarding the rear brakes on specific yrs of the Honda Accord. Honda was not required to issue a recall on the rear brakes. Honda Accord brake pads should last up to 70,000 miles. Unfortunately the repair deadline & eligibility included brake pads replaced with Honda brake pads & installation of those brake pads within 3 yrs of when the car was first sold. I'¿¿ve owned my Accord for 4 yrs & I replaced the brake pads w/ aftermarket pads. Since I have little recourse other than to write Honda or go to the local service dept, I opted to share my experience w/ other consumers, rather then remain silent & frustrated. I doubt I'¿¿ll make any progress w/ contacting Honda. I truly enjoy my Honda Accord & its performance. I am extremely disappointed w/ Honda & their lack of commitment to customer satisfaction & resolving an inferior part issue that is clearly their responsibility as noted w/ all the online customer documentation. Honda has forced their customers to pay for their mistake, refusing to take ownership of a costly, extremely, premature automotive repair.

Replaced rear brake pads at 22000 miles, now at 27000 miles have to replace all 4 rotors and pads.

I began to hear an intermittent scraping, rubbing noise in the back of the car. I took it in to the dealer where I bought the car and they told me I needed rear brake pads only and the front brakes were ¿fine, no problem�. Soon after, I had necessity to brake suddenly on the freeway and I discovered that the front end shook violently when braking at 55-60 mph! I felt a dread to tell the dealer due to previous issues with them. I finally took it back and was told that now the front brakes were warped and needed the ¿rotors turned�! at a cost of $300. 00+ to me. I complained that this car is still under extended warranty and did not have enough mileage for such drastic measures of ¿turning the rotors�. I received a vague ¿estimate� which offered to ¿repair at no charge to customer�. Why can¿t Honda replace these rotors and not just ¿turn� them? I am still paying for this car and certainly never anticipated such a mess as this when it is still new! is there some problem with these rotors as yet undisclosed by Honda? I did months of research and test driving and looking for my first brand new car. I expect more from Honda and this is very disappointing! honestly, I thought I would have this car for many years to come and now I find myself wondering why I bought a new car in the first place. This is not a good start! please provide some answers for me. Thank you! rg.

The rear brakes began making a grinding and humming sound. After taking it to a dealership I was told that they needed to be replaced at a cost of 348. 00 dollars. They failed about 40000 miles before the warrantied distance of 70000 miles. I later found a class action settlement (browne vs Honda) in which it was detailed that Honda was to pay 150 dollars for the parts and 125 dollars for the labor. I was never notified that my brake pads were defective or issued a recall. The case only applies to vehicles under 3 years from original purchase, but because of my military service my vehicle has only half of the expected mileage 6 years after I bought it. I now expected to shoulder the cost of defective parts and labor as well as an inherent risk to my safety based on the importance of the braking system. I was told by the dealership that they would not honor the class action law suit against them, and that it was somehow my problem now.

I have been having problems with the brakes since it was purchased in March 2011. The brakes pads were replaced on the front and back twice since I bought the car. The rotors were turned this year. The car would not stop and constantly made noises. A week ago, I was involved in a car accident because my brakes failed.

I took the car to my mechanic on 11/23/13 with complaints of noise with the rear wheel brakes. When they checked this out, they found the rear breaks had worn out and had to replae the rotor and the brake pads. I had them do the PA state & emission inspection early (were due in January 14) while they had the car. The total cost including inspection was $361. 05. The cost of the brake pads & rotors were $328. 10. I took my car to Honda dealer in hamilton, NJ on 3/22/14 foran oil change. During this visit they did a multi point inspection of the vehicle and found stated that the rear brakes have only 5mm (6/32") lining left. The milage at this date was 36,995 (10,153 miles after the last replacement of the rotors and pads). I was shocked to hear the lining had worn down to this thickness so quickly. I will have to replace the brake pads and rotors again before the next inspection now due innovember 2014, which will cost me another $328. 10.

Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer for an oil change and the dealer stated that the rear brake pads needed to be replaced. The contact stated that they did not have any problem with the brakes, but the brakes had worn prematurely. The VIN was not available the failure and current mileages were 18,000. Kmj.

At approx. 35,000 miles, my 2009 Honda Accord coupe wear indicator for left rear disc brake is rubbing the brake disc indicating that the brake pad has reach the point where the pads need to be replace. This is very perplexing as to why the rear brake need to be replaced before the front brake pads. Seems to be a common complaint on the 2008-2009 Honda Accords and 2009 Acura tsx, and a class action lawsuit that Honda has agreed to pay out $150 to owners who have had to fix this premature brake wear issue. Obviously a design flaw with the braking and vehicle stability control system.

Iam hearing a squealing sound when applying the brakes. Thought it was the brake wear indicator so I che ked and pads are fine. I then googled problem and was surprised to see that Honda is aware of this problem. My car VIN# is shown to be included in the affected group. The brakes seem fine but this is very annoying for a new car. I will contact plaza Honda first thing tomorrow.

When applying the brakes - there is a really bad vibration/pulsing in the steering wheel and brake pedal. The car is a 2008 Honda Accord ex-l with 19,000 miles. Dealer wants to replace rotors . . . . . . . . . . Car is out of warranty !!!!! looks like a known problem online for the 2008-2010 Honda Accord . Class action law suit was settled for millions of dollars. But the dealer said they were not aware of any problems or complaints for brakes . . . . I am going to replace pads and rotors on front and back . . . . With top shelf parts not cheap ass Honda parts !!!!.

While puting rear wheels on lack,and then rotating tires by hand,makes sound of two metals touching with each others,this experiment made by me when I noticed that my rear brake pads are worn out rapidly,then I replaced brake pads in fire stone, but problem remained the same,I visited fire stine again,they said that is manufacturing defect, then I found out from various on line sourses that certain Honda Accords made during 2007 to 2010 have same defect from factory,looks like brake assembly line from supplier is defective during certain period . In short rear brake pads always remains touching with brake plates without pressing brake pad,not too much but little bit.

2010 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle rear brake pads. During a state inspection, the consumer was informed the rear brakes needed to be replaced. The consumer stated the vehicle has 30,000 miles of highway driving and the pads should not have worn out so quickly.

Premature brake wear rear pads.

The rear brake pads were completely worn down @22,004 miles while front pads are great (8mms). I’m a old, good driver and never replace the back brake pads first. This sounds like a safety defect. I know something is wrong! Honda needs fix the back brakes!.

Front brakes make a loud screetching noise at any speed. Car was brought to the dealer 5 times. Repaired 5 times According to Honda service bulletin. However the problem only gets worse. Honda states that they are aware of the problem, but currently there is no repair yet available. I was informed that the vehicle has a faulty brake pad retention spring and the brake pads are loose.

Vehicle driven about 18,000 miles and rear break pads wore out much faster than usual. Honda service says they are 2mm where fronts are 8mm. Faulty rear pads wearing out faster on the inside (pistons sticking) this inspection done in Honda orlando and Honda America insists that break pads are fine despite the rear, where there is least weight wears out faster than front, where the most weight is ! I am not the only one complaining about it. Make sure yo get your breaks inspected before you buy any Honda's cause they are not helpful at all. If this is happening to you, you are on your own. I made multiple calls to different service centers and Honda America. They just simply don't care. They got great customer service until you buy a vehicle form them. Once you have a problem (even on a Honda certified vehicle) you are on your own. Make sure you do not buy Honda breaks if you replace them with your budget cause you will keep replacing them soon again. Clearly there is a problem and Honda America has been ignoring it. I tried to explain on the phone again after talking to Honda service. I passed the information to Honda America. They are like; your vehicle is certified but we are not going to replace your break pads. Never heard of a rear break pads go our before the front.

The rear brakepads on Honda Accord 2010 wear off at 45,000 miles. I've had Honda civic before and no such issue. The Accord has poorly made brakepads and According to Honda dealers -- the pads should last at least 70,000 miles. Very unhappy with Honda -- they settled a brakepad lawsuit for 2008 and 2009 model but did not fix the 2010 model.

Since changing the brakes at 55000 miles. . . I have had nothing but problems. Rotars were fine but I have had to take it in 3 times for wobbling in the front . . . They have machined the rotoras changed break pads. . . Done everything and it continues to wobble. . . . Checked tie rods? everything imaginable and still having issures. . . . They claim the breaks are getting hot. . . . Well that is a bunch of bull as I have lived in az with Hondas for my whole life. . . This is my 4th brand new one. . . . . Never problems like this.

Grinding or squealing sounds while braking is applied. Brake pads was 100% (totally) worn out and there's metal to metal grinding contact at the (passengers) right rear wheel rotor, but the left side back brake shoes was 80% worn out. The front wheels brake shoes was still 80% thick.

As driving on the highway around 50mph, I applied brakes and it almost had no stopping power. Later that day I checked it with the dealer and got brake pads and brake rotors changed. Not even after two months the braking power has faded. Please get this issue fixed as it is causing excessive braking problems which can cause an accident and damages.

I brought my car into Honda today for service and they tell me that I need rear brakes. I was a part of the class action suit two years ago to this day when I had to have my rear brakes replaced with a "new improved" pad. I had 16,527 miles then and now I have 35,859 and they need to be replaced again. These are rear brake pads and should last much more that 17,000 miles. Due this issue, my rotors were damaged by these "new and improved" brakes and have to be replaced, again. I feel that this is something that Honda should cover and not sure if anyone else out there has had a similar issue. Two sets of rear brakes before 36000 is unacceptable.

Rear brake pads wore out at 25910 miles.

Service person says I need rear brake pads replaced and the rotors cut. I complained that the wear was too premature and should be a subject of manufacturer's recall and should be free of charge. After talking to two other personnel at the findlay Honda henderson I got the same response. It must be my driving habits that I brake hard. Of course I know I don't. The other guy says it's normal wear. I've had several cars and the normal wear is beyond 60k miles. I'll never buy Honda ever again and will volunteer to all not to buy Honda cars. I'll also put a sign on my rear windshield of the poor quality of the brakes. Cost of brake job-$200. Mileage 32586.

I took my car in for an oil change and tire rotation and was told the rear brake pads needed to be replace. I found out that a lawsuit was settled in 2010 and people were informed of this. We never received any notice and when I contacted my local Honda dealer I was told there was nothing they could do about because there wasn't a recall notice. When I contacted corporate I was directed to the law firms website that informed me it was to late to file a claim. What can I do about this? thank you.

Tl-the contact owns a 2009 Honda Accord. The contact was driving approximately 35 mph and approached a traffic stop. As the brakes were applied, a loud screeching noise emitted continuously. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where both rear brake pads were replaced. In addition, the rear rotors were resurfaced. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 24,914. Kmj.

The right rear brake makes a noise as if the brake pads are worn out and it sounds like metal surfaces scratching each other. Notified Honda and they said the brake pads are not covered. I have an appointment with Honda to take it for repair. Both bake pads until 70000 miles(generally this is the life for brake pads) and the related wear caused by worn out brake pads should be coved by Honda.

I went to have my car serviced at the Honda dealership and was told that my rear brakes measured at 3mm and they needed to replace the pads and resurface the rotors. I was also told that this should not have happened on a vehicle with this amount of miles,although the dealership says that this is a defect they say it is out of their hands and will do nothing about it.

The brakes on my Honda Accord 2009 ex have squeaked from day one. After 27000 miles the squeaking was extremely loud and continuous. Repair costs > $385 for new pads and resurfacing of the rotors that are expected to correct the issue. The car is under warranty and Honda refuses to fix the issue under warranty. Honda will provide $150 reimbursement that does not even cover half of the cost. It should be fixed under warranty at no cost to the owner.

I have had a very troubling and disappointing experience with the Honda Accord my wife and I purchased from rick roush Honda (medina ohio) in July of 2010. I have attempted to work out a solution through the dealer but was told by the assistant service manger that the Honda zone manager has refused to offer any compensation. We were expecting a normal $25. 00 - $30. 00 oil change. Imagine our surprise when the total cost for the services came to $515. 32. A) maintenance minder code ?b? service $82. 27. I have no issue with this service as it makes good common sense. B) replaced engine and cabin (hepaa) air filters per maintenance minder code ?2? code. $66. 55. Again no issue. C) replaced rear brake pads and rotors $323. 02. This is where I have an issue. According to the inspection checklist; rear pads frozen in pinches? caused the rotors to overheat. There is no reason why this should have occurred to a vehicle with 30,000 miles. Rear brakes should last 60,000? 70,000 miles. It is quite obvious this premature brake wear is a braking system defective the same as or similar to the issue in the class-action lawsuit settled in late 2010. Have or will other 2010 Honda Accord owners experience the same problem? has Honda orchestrated a cover up to avoid the bad press and a costly recall at the expense of the safety of its customers? I expect a reimbursement from Honda for the $323. 02 charge including the sales tax. That will be a total of $344. 02 ($323. 02 + tax of $21. 00.

This complaint is in regard to the rear brake system on my 2010 Honda Accord. Through my own research, Honda has not issued a recall due to premature wear of the rear brakes in my model year Accord, however I learned that they recently settled a class action lawsuit in response to owner complaints about this problem. My vehicle had 22,000 miles on it as of April 24, 2012, the date of my last service. I was informed by a dealership technician that my rear brakes needed to be replaced and that they had only 2 mm of brake pad left on them. I was told that my front pads had 7 mm of brake pad remaining on them. I asked the technician if there was a reason for why rear brake pads would wear out so quickly on a vehicle to which I was given the answer that most automobiles nowadays have the rear brake system providing more of the stopping power than in previous years. I need not go into my own knowledge, nor my personal opinion in this matter. However, the reason I am lodging this complaint does have to do with my knowledge of how braking systems work in automobiles. Hence, I thought it prudent to apprise your institution to this issue so as to point out what may be a material defect in my automobile, as well as many others as I would presume. For the record, I bought my car brand new, have had it regularly serviced According to the manufacturer's guidelines, and the car has not been subjected to any out of the ordinary driving conditions.

I went to the Honda dealership for service on my 2010 Honda Accord sedan, the dealer said my rear brakes need to be replaced. My front brakes were fine and had twice as much pad life left on them compared to the rear pads. The cost would be $249- to replace the rear pads. I have never owned a car where the rear brakes need replacing before the front brakes. This is very concerning to me and needs to be addressed.
