Description of the problem | At around 25k miles, my honda accord began making loud screeching noises. After taking it to the repair shop, they said that my rear brakes were gone and needed to be replaced. This is completely ridiculous for the mileage i have driven. I did some research and found that many other people are having the same exact issue with premature wear in their rear brakes. In fact, there was a honda settlement for '08-'09 accords (and a few '10s) where they gave partial reimbursements for brake replacements. However, honda refuses to admit any wrongdoing and claims that this issue has been resolved in all vehicles thereafter. This is obviously a lie and they need to take responsibility for this continuing design failure. They need to pay for brake pad replacements and/or truly offer a fix for what causes the premature wear. |
