Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Car has 53,000 miles on and while driving in speeds above 30 MPH the steering wheel violently shakes and is worsens with increased speeds. This shakes my entire body, steering column and makes it difficult to control the wheel. I had already replaced both front and back pads and had rotors turned around 23k. All work done at Honda dealership”
NHTSA complaint #10980793, filed 2017-04, 53,000 miles“We have had on going problems with our rotors. They had to be machined after only 15,000 miles and replace after 30,000 miles. We replaced them with high end napa rotors since we did not trust Honda rotors and Honda refused to replace them. Now at 54,000 miles, the brakes are shimmying again.”
NHTSA complaint #11191417, filed 2019-03, 15,000 miles“While driving on the highway and going 60mph or higher, the steering wheel shakes a lot when I start to brake and I have to pump my brakes rather than a slow gradual depression of the pedal like one would normally do or else the van becomes unstable. This has been the case for over a year.”
NHTSA complaint #11129515, filed 2018-09, 60,000 miles“At roughly 35,000, I was told that the rotors were warped and needed resurfacing. I've owned multiple cars and never had a brake issue with such low mileage. Car shakes excessively upon breaking and could cause accident - it is worse at higher speeds. This seems to be an issue in many hondas and which could be responsible for accidents.”
NHTSA complaint #10786561, filed 2015-10, 35,000 miles“Brake rotors warped with very few (20k or less) miles. Dealer stated it was not covered under warranty. Every report I found online stated that resurfaced rotors ended up warping again in a short amount of time. I have found that Honda has recently changed out the rotors they use to try and combat this problem, though, never formally issuing a recall or notice to everyone that has been hit by this issue.”
