This is just one more issue added to the list of problems I have with this piece of junk. I took the car for its regular service (15K miles - 1B) to Southills Honda, PA, which included brakes inspection. One week later, brakes started making this horrible sound. I stopped and checked the left front wheel, the caliper was totally out and scratching the wheel. The caliper bolt was gone!. Check out the pictures!. I took it to the dealer again, they said it was a factory issue. So I don't know what the brakes inspection was about (?). This car is a SAFETY HAZARD.

After reading many other complaints with premature brake issues, I realized it's a larger problem and not just my car. The bolt fell out of my caliper yesterday day and the parts are knocking into my wheels. This is a huge safety issue! Not only did I have that issue, but have had a VERY difficult time trying to find brake pads to replace due to early disintegration of the brake pads.
I am very disappointed as I had known Honda's provide longevity. I will not buy another Honda. EVER.
