| Description of the problem | Our 2008 honda crv have a prematurely worn out rear brake pads. While the front pads are still 80% left, the rear ones were totally gone and damaged the rotor. The dealer where i fixed the brakes immediately connected this to the accord settlement honda has (http://accordsettlement. Com/). After reading the details of the settlement, i believe this applies to my case as well. But unfortunately honda's customer service denied it. But what else could have caused the premature wear out of the rear break with 23000 miles? How can they explain that the front pads (all original) still have 80% left? I believe honda used the same defective materials that they used in the accord. Hopefully more complaints will be logged from crv drivers to bring this to their attention. But no matter what, after having three defective hondas, this will be the last honda vehicles in our family!! |
