Honda Cr-v Service Brakes, Hydraulic Foundation Components Disc Caliper Safety Report | May 07, 2004
Reported on May 07, 2004
| I OWN A 2002 HONDA CR-V WHICH HAS A DISK BRAKE DEFECT. ALL 4 DISK BRAKE CALIPERS ARE DEVELOPING CORROSION INSIDE OF THE PISTIONS. THE DEALER REPLACED THE REAR PADS AND ROTORS BECAUSE THEY HAD WORN AND FROZEN TO THE WEAR INDICATORS AFTER 13,000 MILES. THEY STATED THAT THEY WERE INSUFFICIENTLY LUBRICATED FROM THE FACTORY AND ADDED MORE GREASE TO TAKE CARE OF THE BINDING CONDITION. THE FRONT ONES ARE NOW SHOWING THE SAME SIGNS OF FAILURE AFTER 15,000 MILES. IS THERE A WAY TO PERSUE THAT THE DEALER REPLACE ALL 4 BRAKE CALIPERS DUE TO THE CORROSION DEFECT? MY CONCERN IS THAT THE PISTONS INSIDE OF THE CALIPERS ARE RUSTING THROUGH AND MAY FAIL, CAUSING ACCIDENT/INJURY. | |
