Description of the problem	We purchased this vehicle brand new. Overall it has been excellent, but it does have one horrible safety flaw. The brakes heat up and warp on even a small hill and cause the steering to shake terribly when breaking. The dealer will fix the problem, for a premium of course, and you are good to go for several months. Then it comes right back. This is a known problem, and i'm really surprised that honda hasn't been forced to do a recall since they won't do one on their own. They call it "wear and tear". Yeah, right. It's so common that the dealer specifically asks about it every time we come in for an oil change or whatever. "any issues with shaking during breaking?" sorry, but you will never get me to believe that this is a normal question every time a car comes in for service. We've paid for the "repairs" a few times, but i can't afford to keep paying for the same parts over and over again. So now i just answer yes, but that it's not shaking enough to pay for the temporary repairs again. Really, it's kind of scary and horrible. This seems like it's a serious safety issue, but no one seems to care. This is a minivan. Minivans are usually filled with kids. Hopefully someone at honda or the us government will finally realize that parents shouldn't be struggling to hold onto their steering wheels just so that honda can sell new brakes every few months. I'm only bringing it up now because it's so common that i'm starting to receive letters from attorneys about class-action suits. I'd rather honda just issue a recall and fix the problem. Do the rotors simply need to be better quality steel? I would even be fine if i had to pay for the brakes yet again, as long as the problem is actually fixed once and for all. The minivan only has about 59k miles on it.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
