My brakes have been defective since I bought the car 4 years ago. If you brake suddenly the car does not stop. If you hit a pothole there is a distinct slipping feeling in the brakes. I have to slow down ahead of time or gently pump the brakes to stop the car. I have taken the car to Acura and to my mechanic who is a certified Honda mechanic. They all said the brakes were fine. Each time I take my car in for service I ask them to check my brakes. They even replaced the brakes, but the problem still happened. On 1/31/19, traffic stopped suddenly in front of me on the freeway and I hit my brakes and the car did not stop, causing me to slam into the car in front of me, and that driver said I pushed her into the car in front of her. Thank god I escaped with only bruised ribs and a sprained thumb. And thank god no one else was injured. My car was totaled. The airbag deployed. It was terrifying.

Brakes have worn considerably over the last 10,000 miles. I purchased the vehicle 'certified pre-owned' in may, 2011. Now, only a year and 10K miles later...the car has begun to shake violently, affecting driver's ability to steer during heavy braking. The onset was incredibly fast...from barely noticeable to violently shaking the car in about 300 city miles at most. Looks like the pads will need to be replaced and the rotors smoothed, maybe replaced. Based on the estimates I have found, this repair will cost approximately $175 + labor if the rotors do need to be replaced. The unfortunate part about all of this...I didn't even have time to get my pads changed before they began to wear on my rotor. The stock Honda brakes appear to have worn out in the rear first, then the front. From what I can tell, the front brakes had to pick up the slack from the notoriously inadequate rear brakes, causing the fronts to wear considerably faster.
