2009 Honda Accord brakes complaints
Page 5 of 9: complaints 101 to 130 of 236, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Brakes were squeaking within the first six months but we were told nothing was wrong when taken in for regular warranty-covered checks. Started noticeable shimming when brakes were applied and took in for check at 39,000 miles. Ended up replacing rotors, brakes and rear bearing. The rear bearing alone cost $198. All in all, our bill came to $667.73. We've taken the car in to the dealer for repair of carpet pulling away in front passenger side; vibration noise on back dashboard (or whatever you'd call the shelf behind passenger seats); driver door handle stick problem, steering wheel clicking noise. Purchased honda after being recommended by so many satisfied customers/friends. Invested more then we planned but thought it was worth the investment; disappointed in quality of parts and repair work.
2009 honda accord. Rear brakes worn out at only 11,000. Problem is well know by honda. Class action has been filed. Result of class action, customer must pay for repair and submit receipt for refund upto $150.00, but honda is charging $300.00 for the repair. This is a safety issue and honda should be forced to correct the problem at no charge to the customer.
I own a 2009 honda accord. At around 25000 miles I heard a noise from the rear wheels. The honda dealer where I had purchased the car told me my brakes needed to be replaced. I stated there must be some defect in the vehicle or brakes because the brakes should not need replacing that soon and the rear brakes should never need to be replaced before the front brakes. They said it was normal wear and charged me the full price of more than $250 for replacement. They admitted the new brake pads were "a longer lasting material". I was not aware of the well-documented deficiency in 2008-2009 accord brakes at the time and the dealer did not mention the issue nor offer any discounts.

Needed new brakes after only 29,950 miles. Disc,rr.brak; set, pad rr.
I own a 2009 ex honda accord. Took car to get normal maintenance at 14,000 miles to my honda dealership when they told me that my back brakes were almost worn down to needing replaced. A couple months later I took my car in for a normal maintenance at 21000 miles and said my back brakes needed replaced. Now I am stuck paying $250 for back brakes on a year and ahalf old accord. Even though honda will give me up to $150 back. I think that they should recall the vehicle and pay for the full price. Also this is a safety issue if people don't know if there brakes are bad!!! Very disappointed in honda and may not buy honda vehicles anymore!!!

Rear brakes squeaks, and prematurely worn at 25,020 miles on our 2009 honda accord sedan.
I have a 2009 honda accord ex-l v6 which I bought new in august of 2008. I noticed when driving down the road that a metallic scraping sound was coming from the brakes that went away when I applied the brake pedal. I took the car to the honda dealer who said that the rear brake pads were worn and that they had been grinding into the rear rotors. There were 31,480 miles on the car as I drive mostly highway. The cost for new rear pads, rotors, and labor was $522. The class action lawsuit only pays out $150. This is extremely unfair and this defect should force a recall with full reimbursement by honda.
My new 2009 honda accord has premature back brake wear. Honda refused to pay for this. Now I have to pay for it and then get reimbursed? I will not get reimbursed the full amount per class action lawsuit.
Original rear brake pads had to be replaced at 15,500 miles. The replacement rear brake pads are now at 4.0 mm at 25,400 miles. That is only 9,940 miles after the first replacement. Original p/n:43022-tao-a40.
Premature wear of my brakes on my 2009 honda accord. During braking my car would shake. Only 32k miles on my car, and the front rotors needed to be resurfaced, which was covered under warranty. My rear brakes were not covered and I had to pay $250 out of pocket to replace the brake pads which had been worn down to the brake squealer, and to resurface the rear rotors.
My 2009 honda accord started having front and back brake problems from 17,000 miles. As it went on the noise got bigger and bigger now at 21,000 miles I need front and rear brakes the dealer refuses to fix the brakes.
Premature wear and warping of brake rotors. Noticed rotors required resurfacing due to vibration during braking. Dealership turned rotors, drove vehicle for approximately 700 miles, and the problem recurred. Returned to dealership and all rotors were replaced under warranty. Pads were also replaced with merely 7000 miles. Dealership stated that the life expectancy of brake pads for this vehicle was about 10,000 miles. I find that to be absurd, typically brake pads will last 20k-30k miles. There appears to be a flaw in the materials used to manufacture the pads, in the manufacturing process, or perhaps the brake assembly is inappropriate for this vehicle weight, causing the rotor to over temp and warp if not capable to dissipate the excess heat. This vehicle has been driven in extremely normal driving conditions, primarily highway driving, and had not experienced a hard braking event to that point that may have contributed to this failure.
