Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Purchased a certified 2001 honda accord v-6 sedan 3.0 in july 2004 w/ 42,000 miles at 55,000 i needed new rear brakes and rotors. the brake light never came on. per the dealer the rotors were already turned so, i got new rotors. when i picked up the car from the dealer the car is still making a squeaking sounds as you apply the brake. i took the car back and was informed that there was nothing wrong with the braking system or brakes. to this date the car is still squeaking when i apply the brakes. also note that when i returned to the dealer several days later the back brakes were already worn 10 percent but the front brakes were still brand new??????? this is a front wheel drive vehicle which 70 percent of the braking is applied in the front and approx 30 percent is applied in the rear so why do i need brakes and rotors in the rear before the front. and the front brakes are still as brand new ..makes you wonder if the front braking system is working or not? *nm
