(reported on)Accord EXL 3.0L V6
Driving down a busy hill in rush hour traffic, my brakes failed and my car didn't slow a bit. Luckily, after pumping the brake pedal a few times they worked, but for a few seconds I didn't know what to expect. What a way to be in my first car accident after years of a clean driving record - 22 days after buying this damn car.
I took it back to the dealership so they could check out the problem (while replacing a failed transmission) and didn't find a thing wrong. Since then the brakes haven't failed, but they definitely don't always work. And moreover, every time I push on the brakes, my car pulls drastically to the right.
My friend (a mechanic) drove the car last night. He said it feels like my right front brake is constantly engaged, causing it to over-engage even when the brake is barely touched.
I've only had this Accord for 22 days and it's already given me more problems & heartache than all of the other cars I've owned in my life combined. If I had to do it again, a Honda would never make my list of possible purchases.
