Back in April I got into a minor accident in which the other vehicle was exiting a private drive and hit me as I was going down the middle lane during rush hour. My car sustained the most damage to the rear passenger side affecting my door, tire area and bumper. My tire was completely crushed and bent every which way so it had to be towed away. Well it took a month to get repaired at the Honda body shop and when I finally got it back the TPMS sensor was on so I immediately took it back and it went away. Everything was fine thereafter until a few weeks ago I started hearing a heavy grinding noise every time I pushed the brakes to come to a stop. It is significantly loudest in the morning and at lunchtime it is still there but not as bad and come time to go home after work it?s almost out of earshot doing it occasionally!!! I have gone back to Honda twice already in which they took apart the brake to check but told me that they could not find anything wrong with it at all! When I picked it up I was told that from what they could hear the noise is normal wear and tear so there would be nothing that they could do about it. I just know this is not ?normal? and I will continue to be persistent with Honda as I am very frustrated and so my reason for writing all of this is because I wanted to see if anyone out there has experienced anything like this or could point me in the right direction as to what it could possibly be? Thanks!































From what I can hear the sound is predominately coming from the affected area of course I wouldnt doubt it could also be a combination of both rear brakes. I know it is hard to diagnose what the problem could be as it has to be heard which is why I just want pointers as to what I can tell them in efforst to pinpoint the issue. In the two times I have taken it I have had the technician ride in the backseat to listen for it but again it is shown to them in the afternoon when its harder to hear it and what they do hear is not enough for them to think it is anything major which is what upsets me because there is obviously something there regardless of the crash or not. I absolutely agree that if it was normal why would it happen on that side to which they rebutted that both brakes are wearing out differently since there is a big difference in mileage due to the replacement. Hondas are great cars and I know this is all because of the accident which makes this so frustrating!!
