1 Brake Disc Pads problem

Failure Date: 05/25/2019

Replaced parking brake shoes that were down to bare metal and adjusted same. Brake cables have stretched and will not hold vehicle on even a gentle slope when fully engaged by foot petal pressed all the way to floor. Honda eliminated any parking brake adjustment on this model? this is a very common and very dangerous condition that Honda says can not happen. Whatever you do, do not stand behind a Honda crv with floor activated parking brake as the car will roll over you an a hill in neutral guarantied! no hope to use as an actual emergency brake at all as it will not slow down the vehicle appreciably when moving in neutral. Honda should not be allowed to sell this vehicle in the USA as this cable stretching is a clear and present lethal danger to all. Make them fix this non-adjustable parking brake cable or take the vehicles off the road. Tightening the brake shoes to the brake drum only heats up the brake shoes and tears off the very thin parking brake shoe pads. No common sense went into the decision to eliminate the adjustment capability of this brake cable parking brake system at all. Situation is very dangerous to allow Honda to not recall this parking brake non-adjustable cable system and replace same with an adjustable parking brake cable system. Very easy fix by manufacturing a new floor parking brake petal with incorporated cable adjustment screws. People will be injured and people will die if this is allowed to remain effectively unaddressed by Honda motor company.
