problem #2

Accord 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

Rear brake pads replaced and rotors resurfaced two times (in november2002 at 22,000 miles and then in June 2003 at 38,000...current mileage 39,000). I realized there was a problem because of a loud squealing and grinding noise coming from the rear of vehicle and parking brake light remained lit. Brakes have not completely failed.....yet.

problem #1

Accord

  • Automatic transmission

I was travelling at low speeds and was getting ready to apply my brakes to stop at an intersection. I hit a pothole with my passenger side front tire at about the exact time I depressed by brake pedal. The brake pedal went down almost to floor and I had no braking whatsoever. I stopped by rear-ending the car in front of me. I have never had a problem with the brakes and had had them inspected with the 30,000-mile service a couple of days earlier. Seems like it may have had something to do with hitting the pothole.
