Description of the problem | Since 15,000 miles noticed shaking/pulsation when brakes are applied, worse at higher speeds. Now, at 25k, shaking is dangerous. The problem is premature warping of front brake rotors. Honda knows of this problem and redesigned the front rotors to a corrected vein design to dissipate the heat build up causing pulsation. Contacted two honda dealers for confirmation and they confirmed there are new part #'s to solve this problem and there is no warranty, extended or otherwise. I would hope honda as a responsible manufacturer would warranty the brake rotors as this is a faulty design and is a major safety concern thus decreasing stopping distance and emergency stopping. Thank you. |
