Honda Accord Service Brakes, Hydraulic Safety Report | Nov 21, 2009
Reported on Nov 21, 2009
| I TOOK MY BRAND NEW 2009 HONDA ACCORD LX INTO THE DEALER FOR ROUTINE SERVICE AT 12,700 MILES AND WAS INFORMED THAT MY REAR BRAKE PADS ARE FAILING AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED WITHIN 18,000 MILES. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE ACCORD'S AND THEY HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR OVER A YEAR FOR HONDA MOTOR CORP. TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER READING ALL THE THOUSANDS OF CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE REAR BRAKE PAD PREMATURE FAILURES IT IS OBVIOUS THAT MANY 2008 TO 2010 HONDA ACCORD'S ON THE ROAD ARE OPERATING IN A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION. I IMPLORE THE NHTSA TO FORCE HONDA MOTOR CORP. TO RECALL AND REPAIR ALL 2008 TO 2010 ACCORD'S WHICH IS THE RESPONSIBLE AND REASONABLE COURSE OF ACTION BEFORE PEOPLE ARE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIE. *TR | |
