    Since purchased new in 2013 the brakes make a loud roaring sound when applied at high speeds ( 55- 70) mph. The faster that you're driving when brakes are applied, the louder the roar. Roar happens every time that brakes are applied.

I brought it into a local automotive center for a second look, as the brakes were grinding, and felt like wobbling when slowing.…

    During braking, as you are getting close to stopping the car, i feel little jerk before the car completely stops. This jerk is like couple of times and can be repeated. This probably due to improper abs system. If you move to neutral and then brake, this issue is non-existent. I suspect some electronic aspect with mechanical brakes creating this jerk. *tr

    Iam hearing a squealing sound when applying the brakes. Thought it was the brake wear indicator so i che ked and pads are fine. I then googled problem and was surprised to see that honda is aware of this problem. My car vin# is shown to be included in the affected group. The brakes seem fine but this is very annoying for a new car. I will contact plaza honda first thing tomorrow. *tr

    Front brake squeal when driving, steering or applying brakes. Sounds like the wear sensors but in fact i was told by the dealer (bay ridge honda) in brooklyn n.y. That it is the clips that hold the pads in place. I was also told that honda is aware of this problem and they are waiting for the repair parts to arrive along with the service bulletin. *tr
