I went to the Honda dealership for service on my 2010 Honda Accord sedan, the dealer said my rear brakes need to be replaced. My front brakes were fine and had twice as much pad life left on them compared to the rear pads. The cost would be $249- to replace the rear pads. I have never owned a car where the rear brakes need replacing before the front brakes. This is very concerning to me and needs to be addressed.

Brakes wear out and develop hot spots. Had to replace either brake pads or rotors often. Honda doesn't admit it as their problem and making me pay for each of these incidents costing me a fortune. Unfortunately, my VIN is not on the settlement reached. Each time I go to dealer with brake problems, he re-surfaces rotors causing additional wear.

I purchased my 2010 Honda Accord in Oct 2010; I brought my car back to dealer 3 times for the same problem, excessive vibration during braking. Dealer re-surfaced the first 2 times, replaced rotor the third time. However, after 7K miles, the problem came back again.

Multiple times I will press on my brakes and my car will attempt to accelerate. I have to completely press my brakes in to get the car to decrease in speed but it will sound like it is stalling and make a rumbling sound. I had the recall done. It seemed to work for a short period of time (3 mths) and now it's back to doing the same thing. I went to the dealership today to only find out now I need to get my brakes replaced at a little less than 35K on my car and the front brakes have no wear. I also was told that the recall was not for that.

Had to replace rear brakes at 21,837 miles costing $212.81. My VIN not part of settlement but there is obviously still an issue with Honda brakes. Would like to be informed of any investigations or lawsuits. I am seeing many complaints on this site with no defect investigations?

I had just dropped my child off at school and was in line to leave the school parking lot. I was very slowly moving forward as cars would leave. I was moving slowly when all of a sudden my car quickly accelerated and would not stop regardless of me hitting the brakes. I ended up hitting the car in front of me. This all happened so fast. No injuries but very scary.

Rear brakes on 2010 Honda Accord are almost "metal on metal". this should not take place with a car that is less than 2 years old with only 17,500 miles.

I took my car for a regular service at the dch academy Honda and the service dealer told me that I need to replace rear brakes. It was very surprising that at 22K miles the rear brakes have gone. He told me about the complaint filed for the 2008-2009 and some 2010 models. I filed the complaint and found out that my VIN is not eligible for a reimbursement. I believe they should consider all the 2010 models. I dont know what is the criteria Honda has to indentify faulty brakes. Clearly, Honda has flaw in keeping track of thier inventory or they are not willing to acknoloege cusoter complains and act on the informaiton.

When I took the car for servicing to the open road Honda (rt 1S) in NJ, they told me that the wear and tear on the rear brake pad is heavy and it needs to be replaced. I drove the car mostly highways during my previous job for most of the miles and I didn't even apply much brakes and now the dealer is saying that the rear brake pad is gone and it needs to be replaced. However the front pad is as good as new. How can it be. I came to know that there is a class action suit with Honda on this subject, but it seems they're covering only a certain few VIN number, this is total absurdity, if the braking system is failing for any / all models of Honda, it should be considered.

I went to a local sears automotive service center after I'd heard squeaking coming from the rear of my vehicle. A co-worker told me it sounded like a problem with my brakes and that I should have them checked. The mechanic showed me the brake pads that came from the rear brakes of my car--there was no padding left! another mechanic advised me that he'd seen a lot of Honda come in a similar condition--front brake pads showing some wear and rear brake pads with almost no padding remaining. He advised me to call Honda and ask about recalls. I called the local Honda dealership and was advised to visit this website: www.accordsettlement.com. I called for assistance because it didn't appear that my VIN was included. I contacted [xxx] llp, who said they couldn't assist me because my car was not affected by the class action lawsuit. I think that this braking issue should be further investigated--it appears that it affects more than just the first nine 2010 models produced (as [xxx]claims), as I'm experiencing similar problems to other Accord owners. Brakes are a very component of one's vehicle! information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
