Hi, my 04 Accord LX has 56,000 miles (mainly freeway miles). It starts making grinding noise at about 10 miles/hr when I apply the brake. I don't hear the noise at other speed. The noise is near the front left tire the car. When it makes the noise, it isn't continuous, but it is on and off as the tire spins. Does this mean I need to change brake pads? My dealer quoted my $45 for brake check, and $190 for brake pad replacement. Thanks, Kevin |

Hello all. I have a 2007 Accord SE I-4 with 900 miles and about 5 seconds after starting the car it makes a soft groaning noise lasting about a second such as when backing out of a parking space. It seems as if the power steering is priming itself (?) or the ABS is self testing (?) because I can feel it through the steering wheel and the brake pedal. After the initial groan at startup it drives perfectly without any unusual noises. Is this normal or should I get it checked out? Anyone else experiencing this? Other than this minor issue its been a great car and love driving it.

'07 accord 1K pulling slightly to right since new. Dealer claimed they checked the alignment which was O.K. and rotated tires. Problem still there. Anyone else have this issue?

Replying to: thegraduate (Mar 30, 2007 3:12 pm) Warped rotors can be dangerous in a panic stop from high speeds, especially if the warping is severe. Your brakes are only being applied for part of each wheel rotation, only at the high spot of contact, resulting in longer stopping distances. It can cause some damage or premature wear to the brake system, but most importantly it can cause a safety issue due to loss of control and full stopping power at freeway speeds, and can cause the anti-lock braking system to not work correctly. Severe vibration can damage or cause premature wear to the brake system. The damage can be progressive as the warped rotor wears unevenly as it rubs against the brake pads. |
