Replying to: mrbill1957 (Dec 16, 2007 9:48 pm) If you do not overuse Honda brakes they last about 45K - 50K Miles. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Dec 20, 2007 12:44 pm) viet (Sep 27, 2009 7:08 am)

I always thought that the brakes lasted longer on a manual tranny car anyway.   So 20K with no rotor issues and practically no wear is a pretty good sign!

Replying to: viet (Dec 16, 2007 11:01 pm) Ha, with a fair amount of highway use, my front brakes on my '96 Accord lasted 131k miles, and still have the orginal rear drums with 177k miles!
#104 of 198 Honda Accord 2007 rear brake wear by lmisshula Jan 17, 2008 (9:27 am)
I have a Honda Accord 2007 SE with 12,000km. The front brakes are 80% remaining and the rear brakes are 35% remaining. Is this normal wear for the vehicle? Replies to this message: 1sttimebuyer (Feb 09, 2008 8:55 am)
#105 of 198 2006 Honda Accord EX 4cl - Brake Problems!!!! by 1sttimebuyer Feb 09, 2008 (8:54 am)
I replaced the rear brakes and had the rotors on all four brakes turned about 5k miles ago (I have about 40k miles on my car.) I have brought the car into the dealer THREE times under warranty because my brakes were making strange noises. Of course the dealer could not recreate the noise and therefore did not fix the problem. Now my front brakes have gotten consistently noisier and the other day I felt the car slip a little when it should have been stopping (not on ice - it was too warm down where I live for ice.)   What is the problem with these brakes? The noise I am hearing (and have heard for a long time) is a grinding and also what sounds like air bubbles running through a tube.

Replying to: lmisshula (Jan 17, 2008 9:27 am) From everything I can learn while trying to research my own brake problems, yes, that is the normal wear on these substandard brakes.

Replying to: kaneki28 (Sep 17, 2007 8:35 am) Hello, My 2006 Accord 4 cylinder required new rear brakes at 47000 unlike my 98 Camry which went over 80000 miles. This is a HONDA DESIGN FLAW in which soft brakes have been put on the rear and are always engaged with brake use. Friends had theirs replaced at 33,000 (my driving is 80% highway) and the Hansel Honda dealer in Santa Rosa California confirmed the design flaw and stated most go only 25000 miles.   HONDA SHOULD REPLACE THESE BRAKES FOR FREE OR AT LEAST PAY FOR THE PARTS. THIS IS INTOLERABLE. THIS IS MY FIRST AND PROBABLY ACCORD. I don't have time for expensive maintenance or frequent repairs; otherwise I would buy a German car to visit the dealership frequently.

Replying to: tamalpais101 (Mar 22, 2008 3:13 pm) I've heard that some folks have early brake wear but my 06 EX-L has almost 43k miles and I have normal wear. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Mar 22, 2008 8:28 pm)

Replying to: tallman1 (Mar 22, 2008 8:19 pm) I'm at 31k on my '06 EX 4-cyl with no problems. My dad didn't experience issues with his 05 EX either. He replaced the rears at 50k, but drives much harder than I. He now has a Civic, but didnt have issues with his Accord in 70k miles.

Replying to: tamalpais101 (Mar 22, 2008 3:13 pm) I changed my rear pads at 52k miles (90% around town driving). The fronts looked like they could go for another 10k miles. I don't think 47k miles is all that bad. How expensive was it? Did they change only the pads, or rotors too? I paid less than $40 for the pads, and changed them myself in less than an hour, so I'm not complaining. If you can't do your own maintenance, you shouldn't complain about how much the dealership charges you.
