Brake pads wore out prematurely for a second time after a year of being replaced. There's no reason for this when i'm driving 80% of the time highway with little braking. Reparation cost $200 and it is not cover under warranty. *tr

I had an oil change on 3/12/10 and was told i would need brakes at my next oil change in approx. 6 mos. In late march, my car had a loud scraping noise. I took it to the dealer on 4/6/10 and had to have my rear brakes replaced. I was given a 50% discount on the repair but think that it should have been repaired under my extended warranty. I have found on the internet that the 2008 honda accord has the most problems…

The rear brakes of my 2008 honda accord are squealing badly at all times when driving. The car has 34,000 miles on it. The rear pads are almost completely gone. The car has had serious vibration issues with the brakes ever since new. When slowing down from highway speeds the car vibrates badly. One time it almost resulted in the loss of control of the vehicle because the vibration was so bad. I have seen hundreds of…

I have complained to honda numerous times about the brakes on my 2008 honda accord. The brakes were replaced within the 1st year of the purchase of this new vehicle. Months later, they turned the rotors after my constant complaints. The brakes have continued to cause problems (squeeking, etc). I had this replaced today by a brake company. The inside of the pads were extremely worn, and the car only has 28,000 miles.…

The front pads had little if any wear on them according to the sear's tech who did the work. He thought that the premature rear brake pad wear was due to defective spring. I have had no such notification about the…

Honda engineers are held liable for the many brake problems on the 2008 accord model. A front-wheel drive vehicle should not have a rear brake pad wear down to nothing after only 18000 miles of driving. This is a safety hazard that will results in innocent people being hurt over a design flaw. The dealers know there is a problem but they are "sweeping it under the rug" just like toyota did recently. I fear for my…

2008 honda accord with 20k miles needs rear brake pads, due to defective brake pads. Honda of america does not see this as a safety issue and will not recall or replace pads as warranty; they just want their $120. There are hundreds of similar cases on the internet. Don't you think faulty brake pads are surely a safety issue? I have been in the automotive service industry for over 20 years and am a ase master tech.…

Honda accord 2008 - rear brake failure after only 15,000 miles. Other cars i had lasted 40 to 70,000 miles. It can lead to brake failure as users aren't expecting brake pads to wear out so soon. *dt if not a recall, at least a warning from honda to all buyers is warranted, in my opinion, so they can keep an eye or replace with longer lasting pads pronto. Thanks. *dt

I had to change the rear brake rotors on my 2008 honda accord ex- v6, while my front rotors and pads are perfectly ok and needed no repair or replacement at all. According to my experience with previous vehicles, i never had to get any work done on rear brakes even up to a mileage of 180,000. On this car i had to change not just the pads but the rotors as well just at 40,000 miles. *tr
