| My 2003 honda crv has only 27000 miles on it. during a long drive on a vacation, the rear brakes began to fail. when i arrived at my destination, the rear pads were gone and the rear disks were destroyed. i paid nearly $500 to replace the rear disc brakes. the front disc brakes show only 50% wear. the original back brakes were clearly defective, although honda will not admit this.*ak | |||

| I have now taken my 2003 crv in for the third time because of vibration in the steering wheel. the first time they machined the rotors and the second time they replaced them. now, after about 15,000 miles, they are telling me they need to be replaced again. something has got to be wrong here. *nm | |||

| From day 1 my brakes did not seem right. i had a very bad vibration in my brakes from probably 15,000 mi. at approximately 17,000mi the dealer machined or turned the rotors and replaced the brake pads. now again at 35,000mi the vibration in my brakes are back. dealer wanted to machine and turn the rotors once more, but we argued that this is not normal,a nd they agreed to replace them at 35,600mi. i have done some research and found that there are a lot more honda owners with this problem. i have always owned hondas in the past and never had this problem. *jb | |||
