The backing plate is the tin dust plate behind the rotor. They can be easily bent when removing a tire, if you lower the tire before you clear the plate, you can hit it and bend it where it can contact the rotor.
 
If that's what they are talking about, it is a simple fix and is nothing to worry over.

This would make a lot of sense. I started noticing the metalic noise last Sat. night and I had my tires rotated at Honda Services last Thurs. I bet the mechanic bent the plate when he removed the tire.
 
Thanks for your explanation.

Two things have recently occured on my Accord: first, the CD stopped operating, then the console lights with all the sound system controls appears to have shut down -- can't read LEDs for the clock, the climate control, radio -- nothing. Has this happened to anyone else?
 
Except for the CD not working, everything else works OK. Radio is fine, climate control is fine...

Honda has supposedly extended the warranty on the radio lights (which requires replacing the radio) to 7 years, 100,000 miles. Check it out.

You'll find lots of examples of this problem and how to work with Honda by reading older messages here.

Here is my update. Like bf109ace, I've had a similar noise coming from the bottom of my Accord. They raised the heat shield slightly to see if that would fix the problem. It didn't, and the noise came back intermittenly. They then found that the shield for the intermediate shaft was loose on a couple of bolts. (To be honest, I don't know where or what that is for). After tightening those bolts, the noise seems to be gone. I've yet to hear the same noise, so I think they've fixed the issue. But I'll let you know if the noise comes back. Thanks!

Honda to recall 166,000 Accord by mamamia2

TOKYO (Reuters) - Honda Motor Co. said on Tuesday it would recall about 166,000 vehicles in the United States of the Accord, Odyssey and five other models to fix a faulty component in the fuel pump.
 
The defect in the pump, manufactured by Japan's Mitsuba Corp. , could cause the engine to stop and fail to restart, said a spokesman at Honda, Japan's second-biggest automaker.
 
No accidents have been reported stemming from the defect.
 
The same defect affected about 30,000 of the 528,400 vehicles Honda said it would recall in China last week, the spokesman said. A recall filing for vehicles using the same component will also shortly be made in Japan, he said.
 
The cost of the recall is still unknown, he said.
 
Subject to the recall are some Accord, Accord hybrid, Odyssey, Acura TL, Acura RL, Acura TSX vehicles from the 2005 model year and some 2006 Ridgeline pickup trucks.
 
Shares in Mitsuba were down 1.4 percent at 974 yen at the midday break, while Honda was up 1.2 percent at 4,180 yen.

It's not in the fuel pump (I think the link you have states it wrong). It's the fuel pump relay, located in the under dash fuse box. It's a simple fix. They probably just pull the old one out, and replace it with a new one (should take less than 5 mins). The relays in older Accords were way under the dash, and you had to remove the cruise control box to get to it. They were also made by Mitsuba. Maybe Honda should find a new relay supplier. Here's a link, if anyone wants to see which models are affected.
