| On august 22,2009 while traveling northbound on the hutchinson river parway in the bronx, with moderate congestion, i applied normal pressure to the brake pedal of my 2008 honda ridgeline to hear a pop and snap and loss of all brake pressure. the event left me with no brakes, travelling at approximatley 35mph in the left lane of the parkway. trying to avoid a collision i struck the median guardrail and another vehicle traveling in the left lane in front of me. the accident left my vehicle un-driveable and had to be towed to a repair shop nearby. this was the first such problem and it was/is a major one that has not been addressed by either the dealership or corporation. four months after the accident the vehicle was repaired and returned to me with no admission by any honda representative of fault due to manufacture's defect in the brake system which was discovered and confirmed by an independant engeneering firm. it is my fear that this malfunction will happen again and cause a more serious accident in the future. this malfunction should not be handled lightly and should be considered a life threatening issue that must be addressed and corrected immediatley. | |||
