problem #1

Pilot 6-cyl

Loud "clank" noise from brake calipers the first time brakes are applied after changing direction (forward to reverse or reverse to forward). This has happened since new; the dealer service rep states "they all do that", and said he was surprised Honda had not come up with some kind of fix because they were getting a lot of complaints about the very disconcerting noise.
