Squealing noise comes and goes. Months later it returned and lasted for longer intervals. Took it to the dealer and was told the brakes needed replacing. The car is only 2 years old and less than 20,000 miles. All driving is done locally. Have been a long-time owner of hondas and have never had this problem. It is not a "usual" issue. This is clearly a poorly made vehicle. *tr

Front brake pads replaced the first time at approximately 15000 along with a faulty caliper, they were replaced again in approximately 30000 miles (6 months later). Now the wheel alignment is completely off at just around just over 34000 miles. There are numerous complaints related to the brake problem with this year vehicle as well as a class action lawsuit out of…

There was a lot of noise from the front end. I took to the dealer (mary sussman honda, abington, pa) and they told me i needed a front end brake job (pads, rotor polishing etc). Two days ago (9/27/12) i had to take to have my rear bearing replaced and they told me i needed front brakes again. Now mileage is 44,500, so only ~18,000 miles from last repair. I think two brake jobs at 40k miles is not right. *tr

I drove my car onto a major highway, speed limit 70 mph. Entering the highway my car accelerated from 70-79 by itself with my abs kicking in at the same time. Not allowing me to brake. Nearly causing a pile up, i exited immediately turning into a shopping center to park my car. With two passengers in the car with me, i proceeded into the lot, up a hill when i could feel my car accelerating by itself. With my…

I had to replace the brakes on my honda a year after purchase. No matter what breaks i replace them with the brakes seam to wear-out very fast. Since my purchase in 2010 i have replaced the breaks on the honda several times (2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016), it almost seams to be needing replacement every year. Also since 2013, the paint on the car seams to be pealing, cracking, and has became very cloudy. I will not…

Since purchasing my 2010 honda civic new, i have had to replace the front brakes twice, first at 8,044 miles and just recently again at 15,770 miles. It is apparent this model has a problem with premature brake wear that honda has refused to address. *tr

I leased our brand new 2010 honda civic on 05/31/2010. Primarily i used the vehicle to commute from/to work.

This will be the third time in 2 1/2 years that i have had to replace the brakes. Each time it has been an out of pocket expense and honda has accepted no responsibility. *tr

I was driving to school and heard the first dreadful, squealing alert of my wearing brake pads. I called my local honda dealer and asked what might be going on as i was a first time vehicle owner. They told me that my brake pads were surly worn out and blamed me that it was because of my driving habits, or i was racing. At this point i began to laugh in disbelief. They told me to come in so they can inspect the…

Brake does not function well. I have to push it hard to have enough power to stop even when the speed is very low. I also notice that when the air condition is on, brake works worse. I believe there might be a self-acceleration problem especially when the air condition is on. *tr
