2003 Accord rotors
Just thought I'd relate a positive story for once. Having read about
some others here who had had a similar problem, I took some research and documentation to my dealer, along with my car, a 2003 Accord LX 4 door 4 cylinder, because at 9 months old the whole car shook when braking from high speed. It clearly needed the rotors turned. I informed the service manager at the dealer that although my car had 30,000 miles on the clock, they were highway miles (obviously, in only nine months), and the brakes were used very rarely and very sparingly. As a result, I believed that Honda should pay for the fix. He said he couldn't promise anything, but he'd check with Honda. I told him to go ahead, and I would pay if I had to, as the job needed to be done. When I picked up my car, the rotors had been turned, the pads had been replaced, and there was no charge. The service manager said that there had been some bulletins on the problem. I don't have too many good experiences at the dealer. This was excellent. RFT!!! Dave Kelsen -- If I'm going to hell anyway, why should it matter if it's in a handbasket? |

My concern is, is this going to happen every 30,000kms? Pads should not wear out after 30,000kms! I asked my mechanic to find alternatives if Honda wasn't going to cover it and he checked, but there are no aftermarket yet. Jody |

Re: 2003 Accord rotors
i took my 2003 accord to get its second service done at 16000 kms and they
said i need my rear pads replaced as they were at 15% - i paid to get it done - i then asked a buddy of mine who's a mechanic and said that the fronts always wear out before the rears and shouldn't need replacing after only 16000 kms talked to my dealer and they are going to refund the money after i kicked up a bit of a fuss the dealer said the pads are a new type? and softer and therefore wear out quicker - but admitted they shoudn't wear out as quick as they did alex "Knuckles Muldoon" <mortimersnurd@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:r6lpqv4epsdka3794lrrdh2thnn0p9h5k1@4ax.com... > On Sat, 08 Nov 2003 06:44:58 GMT, Dave Kelsen <kelsen@elmore.rr.com> > wrote: > > >Just thought I'd relate a positive story for once.

Re: 2003 Accord rotors
The lug nuts need to be hand torqued with a torque wrench and not done with
one of those color coded snap-on air gun sockets. You should have been given new rotors and not having the old ones turned. When you have your tires rotated, specify you want the lug nuts hand torqued. Have it put on the bill pay extra for it--it is insurance that the shuddering will go away. The 98 Nissan Maxima had a service bulletin about this issue. When a dealer turns a rotor it is pure profit for them. New rotors cost about $50. each "Dave Kelsen" <kelsen@elmore.rr.com> wrote in message news:Kh0rb.808$O2.36794@twister.tampabay.rr.com... > Just thought I'd relate a positive story for once.
