Description of the problem | when driving at speeds over 50 miles an hour and breaking the car shutteres. The problem continued to get worse and the car would feel out of control when braking at over 50 miles an hour. The first few times it happened was in wet weather and i attributed it to that. But the problem continued and the first rotors were replaced at about 3000 miles. Subsequently the rotors were changed 2 more times after that. The fourth time we reported it to honda national. We were told that they never heard of such a problem and that it was because it was too hot in florida and i break too hard despite the fact that i've been driving for over 30 years and never came across this problem. They also told us that they could not replace the vehicle because they could not sell our current vehicle because it wasn't safe. So because of circumstances we had to pay fees large fees for another car. Honda refuses to admit this is a problem . If you research on the web there were hundreds even thousands of complaints with people given the same answer by honda. I think this is a real problem and the shuttering gets worse very quickly and can be very dangerous on the highway and somebody needs to look into this problem. |
