BRAKE PREMATURE WEAR CAUSING BRAKES NOT TO WORK PROPERLY,TALK TO DEALER AND THEY SAY I HAVE BRAKES FIXED AND SUBMIT TO HONDA AND THEY MIGHT REIMBURSE ME FOR THE REPAIR IS THIS HONDA'S AND THE DEALERS WAY TO MAKE MORE MONEY. THAT'S WHY I THINK WE SHOULD LOOK AT AMERICAN MADE CARS WHEN WE BUY FROM NOW ON . NOTHING LIKE THE GOOD OLD U.S.OF A. GO FORD. *TR

THIS IS THE SECOND HONDA ACCORD THAT I HAVE BOUGHT THAT HAD PREMATURE BRAKE FAILURE. THE FIRST HONDA ACCORD 1996 HAD TO HAVE NEW REAR BRAKES AND PADS AT AROUND 20,000 MILES. THIS 2009 HONDA ACCORD HAD PREMATURE BRAKE FAILURE AT 21,085. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!! THE BILL WAS 409.24 + TAX. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!! *KB

ON THE 2009 HONDA ACCORD AT 28,691 THE REAR BRAKE PADS STARTED TO SMELL LIKE A BURNING SMELL THEN IT STARTED TO MAKE A NOISE FROM THE BACK OF THE CAR.I SAT IN THE BACK SEAT ON THE WAY TO THE VETS OFFICE WHEN ALL THIS OCCURED.I DO NOT DRIVE THIS CAR AS ITS MY WIFES CAR,SHE SAID THAT SHE COULD NOT HEAR THE NOISE FROM THE FRONT SEAT BUT COULD SMELL A WIERD ORDOR.SHE SOMETIMES CARRY OUR FRIST GRANDCHILD IN THE CAR AND WITH THIS HAPPENING THANK GOD NOTHING HAPPENED.PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE THE BRAKES CATCH FIRE OR GO OUT COMPLETELY.THE CALIPERS I'VE HEARD ARE DEFECTIVE,THEY FREEZE UP NOT ALLOWING THE INSIDE BRAKE PAD RELEASE,I CAN UNDERSTAND THIS HAPPENING.HONDA KNOWS THE PROBLEM BUT TO CALL A FULL OUT RECALL THEY WANT TO HIDE THIS CRITICAL SAFETY DEFECT. *TT

REAR BRAKES SQUEAKS AND WORN OUT PREMATURELY AT 17,900 MILES. *KB

PREMATURE BRAKE WEAR ON REAR BRAKES OF HONDA ACCORD 2009 2.4 LITER. DEALER INSPECTION DESCRIBES REAR PADS AT 3MM. FRONT BRAKES OK. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. NHTSA PLEASE GET HONDA TO RECALL. DEALER WANTS 295.00 FOR REAR BRAKE JOB. *TR

THE REAR INNER BRAKE PADS WORE DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY WHILE THE REAR OUTER PADS HAD ABOUT 3-4MM LEFT. THIS SEEMED TO BE A VERY PREMATURE WEAR COMPARE TO OTHER VEHICLES I OWNED OVER THE YEARS. *TR

THERE IS A KNOWN FABRICATION DEFECT OF THE STEERING COLUMN ON HONDA ACCORD 2009 MODEL. A SERVICE BULLETIN WAS ISSUED BY HONDA CORPORATION REGARDING THIS ISSUE IN 2009. THE LOWER BEARING OF THE STEERING COLUMN WAS MIS-INSTALLED. AS A RESULT, THE STEERING COLUMN MAKES A CLUNK NOISE WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. I FIRST BROUGHT THIS ISSUE TO THE ATTENTION OF THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SOON AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR IN OCTOBER 2009. THEY DID NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MEANWHILE THE STEERING BECAME STICKY. IN OTHER WORDS THE BEARING IN CAUSING BINDING. I AM AFRAID THAT AT A SUDDEN TURN OF THE STEERING WHEEL, THE BEARING MIGHT SHATTER AND LOCK UP THE STEERING COLUMN. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *KB

HAD TO REPLACE REAR BRAKE PADS FRONT FINE, RIGHT REAR COMPLETELY WORN DOWN LEFT FINE. *TR

SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT I HAVE HAD A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE AC ON THE RIGHT SIDE VENT ON MY 2009 HONDA ACCORD.

ALSO, I HAVE REPLACED 2 DOOR ACTUATOR MOTORS. THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT IN DECEMBER OF 2009 AND IT IS OCTOBER OF 2011. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER HONDA DUE TO HAVING ISSUES OCCUR REPEATEDLY AND SO SOON AFTER A NEW PURCHASE. OBVIOUSLY BRAKES HAVE TO BE FIXED AGAIN AND AGAIN. *TR

I CONTACTED THE DEALER I BOUGHT THEM FROM AND WAS TOLD VIA E MAIL THEY WOULD NOT HAVE TIME TO MAKE THAT REPAIR UNTIL 11-7-2011 OR LATER. I WAS JUST AT THE DEALER GETTING AN OIL CHANGE AND THEY WERE WORKING ON EVERY KIND OF CAR THE US MAKES. IT IS NOT A RECALL IF THEY DECIDE TO ASSIGN INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES TO CORRECT THIS. IT IS AN UNSAFE JOKE! THIS REPAIR TAKES ONE HOUR OR LESS ACCORDING TO ANOTHER FAMILY MEMBER THAT HAD IT DONE IN JACKSONVILLE. *TR

2009 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES TO EXPRESS DISCONTENT RELATED TO BRAKE REPAIRS AND UNWANTED AC SERVICE AT LOCAL DEALER *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS A STRANGE SMELL COMING FROM THE AC.

THE CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED TO A LOCAL DEALER ON 3 SEPERATE OCCASIONS. THEY CONTINUE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM BY INSTALLING SOME TYPE OF PADDING IN THE DASH. AFTER EACH REPAIR, THE NOISE RETURNS AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 10 MILES. I HAVE ASKED THEM ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO REMOVE THE DASH/AIR BAGS AND INSPECT THE EFFECTED AREAS. I HAVE ALSO REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE HONDA CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE DEPARTMENT. THEY HAVE INDICATED THEY WILL REVIEW MY INFORMATION AND HAVE SOMEONE CALL BACK. MY CONCERNS ARE; THAT SOMETHING IS LOOSE, CREATING THE NOISE, ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT SOME TYPE OF PROBLEM MAY EXIST WITH THE AIR BAGS WHICH COULD RESULT IN EITHER AN UNWANTED/NON DEPLOYMENT SITUATION OR IF SOMETHING IS RUBBING ON A WIRING HARNESS A PASSENGER COMPARTMENT FIRE. *KB

FRONT BRAKES ON THIS MODEL ARE PREMATURELY GOING OUT. I HAVE 21,000 MILES AND THEY ARE TERRIBLE! SOMEONE IS EVENTUALLY GOING TO GET HURT. TRANSMISSION IS ALSO ACTING UP SINCE THE TIME I BOUGHT THE CAR. I HAVE COMPLAINED SIX TIMES ABOUT BOTH ISSUES BUT TO NO AVAIL.

MY '09 HONDA ACCORD STARTED HAVING BRAKE NOISES AT UNDER 20K MILES. UPON TAKING IN THE FIRST TIME AT 22K MILES I WAS TOLD THE CAR NEEDED NEW REAR BRAKE PADS AND RESURFACING ALREADY. AFTER MUCH COMPLAINING (BECAUSE BRAKES AREN'T USUALLY A WARRANTY ITEM, AND THIS WAS PRIOR TO THE CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT) THEY DID REPAIR AND REPLACE THEM FOR FREE. 1 YEAR LATER I BEGAN EXPERIENCING A SHIMMY WHEN BRAKING ON THE FREEWAY OR ESPECIALLY ON A HILL, AND WAS TOLD THEN THAT THE FRONT ROTORS ARE NOW MAGICALLY "WARPED". I DEALT WITH IT FOR A WHILE, BUT THEN RECENTLY BEGAN HEARING THE METAL ON METAL SOUND OF THE REAR PADS GOING OUT AGAIN. SURE ENOUGH, UPON TAKING TO THE DEALER WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM, IT DOES IN FACT NOW NEED REAR PADS AGAIN AT 46K MILES, AS WELL AS FRONT ROTOR RESURFACING....WHICH NOW I'M ALSO TOLD YOU CAN'T USE THE FRONT PADS ANYMORE WHEN YOU RESURFACE THE ROTORS. SO ESSENTIALLY, I'M REPLACING BOTH FRONT AND REAR BRAKES(REAR BRAKES FOR THE SECOND TIME), AND RESURFACING FOR THE SECOND TIME AT ONLY 46K MILES. NATURALLY, THE HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT PEOPLE DON'T CARE AND WON'T COVER ANYTHING UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THIS IS CLEARLY A WELL KNOWN HONDA DEFECT. SORRY HONDA, BUT YOU JUST LOST A CUSTOMER WHO HAS OWNED 4 HONDAS UP TO THIS POINT. *TR
