Complaint against Honda – defective Honda Accord V6
I have been facing a problem with the brakes ever since I had purchased the Honda Accord V6 car. The same is also verifiable from the service records with the company that the brake discs / pads have been replaced twice in the past and something called skimming has also been carried out twice as well. Further it cas also be verified from the service records that every time the car has been sent for service, I have complained of the same brake problem, which proves that this problem has been happening since the purchase of the vehicle.
I appreciate the fact that brake discs and pads are items which are prone to wear and tear but at the same time there is a specified life of these things. Further, as confirmed by the dealership on inspection, the wear and tear is not uniform, which is quite unlike a standard wear and tear of the product. Hence it simply proves that some other defect is leading to this non-uniform wear and tear and this is why the brakes are having to be replaced 3 times in less than 16000 kms. I would also like to clarify that the driving conditions are more than appropriate, as is evident from the condition of the vehicle. I have my residence at Hastings, i.e. near Race Course and Office at Shakespeare Sarani, and that’s the only route this car takes each day. Further, other parts of the car would also reflect similar wear and tear had the driving conditions been less than appropriate.
The vehicle had been lying at the garage for nearly a fortnight and I had hoped that the dealership would assist in taking care of the problem. But the car has been sent back without the problem being addressed.
Honda has sold a defective vehicle and now is shrugging away from its responsibilities.
I am unable to use the car properly and I face the risk / danger of meeting with an accident as a consequence of this defect. Any loss of life or property shall be the sole responsibility of Honda.

ACCORD V6
I am facing car bubbling problem when applying brakes at speed 80kmph and above.routers skimming/turning has been done many times and have also been replaced also the brake pads have been changed many times but the problem is still the same.
honda is not able to solve this problem.
ALL ACCORD V6 ARE DEFECTED AND THEY CANNOT FIND THE ROOT CAUSE AND NOW THEY HAVE ACCEPTED THAT THEY CAN’T SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
I AM ALSO HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM SINCE I PUCHASED THE CAR.
