I CONTACTED MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER WHO INDICATED THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN THIS MAKE AND MODEL CAR, BUT THAT IT WAS NOT ON RECALL \"YET\". AFTER ONE DAY OF DRIVING WITH THE NOISE I FELT A NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE IN MY VEHICLE'S BREAKING AND HIGHWAY DRIVING. I INFORMED THE DEALER OF THIS AND WAS TOLD THAT ANY ABNORMAL BRAKE WEAR WILL EFFECT MY VEHICLES STABILITY ASSIST SYSTEM (SAS) WHICH CONTROLS THE VEHICLE'S TRACTION, SPEED, ACCELERATION, ETC..    WHEN I TOOK MY CAR INTO A REPAIR SHOP (NOT THE DEALER DUE TO THEIR ABSORBENT PRICES) THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT MY REAR INTERIOR BRAKEPAD WAS WORN DOWN TO THE INDICATORS. UNFORTUNATELY I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET THIS FIXED BECAUSE HONDA INFORMED ME THIS WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY AND DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT THEY ARE NOT COVERING THE COST BECAUSE A RECALL IS NOT IN PLACE YET.     I HAVE CHECKED SEVERAL CONSUMER WEBSITES WHEREIN THIS HAS BEEN NOTED AS A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. EVERY 12,000-15,000 MILES OR SO THE REAR BRAKE PADS WEAR OUT PREMATURELY. I AM CONCERNED DUE TO THE RAPID PACE THAT THE BRAKE PADS WEAR OUT AT AND AM FEARFUL THAT MY VEHICLE (AND OTHERS LIKE IT) WILL LOOSE STABILITY AND RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT IF THIS PROBLEM IS NOT RESOLVED.     THE DEALERSHIPS MAKE EXCUSES FOR THIS PROBLEM AND WHEN CONTACTING HONDA AMERICA THEY ACT AS IF THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE. CARCOMPLAINTS.COM HAS 350 COMPLAINTS AND COUNTING AS OF 7/9/09 SO I FIND IT DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THAT HONDA AMERICA HAS NEVER BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS PROBLEM. I SAVED MY OLD PARTS AND THE RECEIPT/INVOICE FROM THE REPAIR PLACE I WENT TO AND AM EXPECTING A RECALL TO BE ISSUED (EVENTUALLY) SO THAT I AS WELL AS HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF OTHERS CAN BE REIMBURSED FOR THIS UNNECESSARY EXPENSE. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE TO GET A RECALL ?! *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ACCORD","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
