Description of the problem | Vehicle driven about 18,000 miles and rear brake 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 brake 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 brakes 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 brake pads. Never heard of a rear brake pads go our before the front. |
