| 2008 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | DEFECTIVE REAR BRAKE PADS. 2008 HONDA ACCORD COUPE EXL WITH 12K MILES. THE CAR WAS BOUGHT IN MAY 2008 AND ONLY HAS LITTLE OVER 12K MILES ON IT AND THE REAR BRAKE PADS ALREADY NEEDS CHANGING. I CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM AND WAS TOLD THAT HONDA HAD BOUGHT ON SMALL PADS IN THE BACK BUT THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A FIX IN FOR THE SMALL PADS AND THE BRAKES ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I ALSO DID A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND FOUND THAT A LOT OF CUSTOMERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. I FEEL THAT EITHER HONDA NEEDS TO FIND A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM BY DOING A RE-CALL ON ALL CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM OR THEY NEED TO COVER THE FIX UNDER WARRANTY. I DON'T THINK I OR ANY OTHER CONSUMER CAN AFFORD TO HAVE THEIR BRAKES FIX EVERY 12K MILES DURING THIS HARD ECONOMIC TIMES. PLEASE CHECK THE PROVIDED LINK FROM OTHER CONSUMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/ACCORD/2008/BRAKES/PREMATURE_BRAKE_WEAR.SHTML. *TR |
