I purchased a 2009 honda and had it service every 3000 miles. Upon my second servicing of the car i had the dealership to check my brakes cause they were squeaking; the representative stated that the brake rotors tend to rust and the reason why i was hearing the brakes upon compression. So, me being a woman and all i thought the representative being honest with me however, i drove the car for another week and i could hear this grinding noise while driving as if metal and metal was rubbing together. I thought maybe it would go away but it didn't it kept on and then it suddenly stopped. However, the brakes started scrubbing real bad so i took it for servicing same story... They cleaned off the rotors and nothing else. So it was getting close to my 25k check so i simply prayed and ignored the annoying sound until i was able to take it in. When i did the representative tells me that my rear brake pads need to be replaced i was like that doesn't make any sense - why would i need to replace the rear pads when i drive a front wheel drive automobile. I was extremely messed up about it and complained so they offered to pay half and i the other i told i wasn't going to pay anything. Well, i decided to do a little research on the matter and i found this website -
http://www. Carcomplaints. Com/honda/accord/2009/index. Shtml. There people all over the us complaining about premature brake pad wearing as well as premature rotor warping both of what i'm dealing with. I told my husband i will be trading this car in as soon as we're right side up on our loan; i'm thinking one more year unless you can create a recall for this and have correct this problem. I just pray that it's not that big of a problem where i - myself, or someone gets hurt. Please look into this matter asap. Cordially,
