Description of the problem | I own a 2013 honda accord ex-l v6 with 7520 miles on hit. I approached my gated community on friday evening, june 28, 2013 at approximately 9:45pm, hit the remote to open the gates, placed my foot on the brake and there was no brake reaction whatsoever. The car continued to roll forward. Fortunately, the gate opened before i hit it. I continued to my home, checking the brakes and they appeared to work, opened up the garage and was putting the car in the garage when i put my foot on the brake and again the car's brakes had no reaction and i hit the wall and door leading into my house. The weather conditions were clear and no rain. Fortunately, the car has minimal damage; however, the house has substantial damage. I am unable to close and lock my kitchen door leading from the garage into the house. I have researched this problem, and this appears to be a problem with this year along with previous years. |
