I purchased this car in August, 1998 and from the begining, experienced brake noise problems. One dealer tried to fix the problem a number of times but gave up in the end and I was told that "such brake noise is acceptable. " my point at the time was that brake noise is symptomatic of a problem, a potentially safety-related problem (especially since we are dealing with brakes). I complained to the manufacturer, who agreed to extend the warranty on the brakes only from three years/36,000 miles to five years/60,000 miles. On September 16, 2000, I brought the car in to another dealer with brake shuddering and noise problems. The dealer found that the rotors and drums were out of spec and I spent $144 to have the rotors and drums turned. I tried to use my warranty but was told that the fix was maintenance and was not covered by the warranty. I again complained to the manufacturer but my complaint was denied. My contention is that a car of such young age and low mileage should not have to have its rotors and drums turned and that such a problem is indicative of a manufacturing defect which american Honda refuses to acknowledge.
