What owners wrote
As I was braking while approaching an angled parking space the car would not stop. The car accelerated, crossed the sidewalk and hit a concrete building. The air bags were deployed. The insurance adjustor declared the car totaled.
The 2012 honda accord LX has 24000 miles on it. And the right front pads completely wore out. All others pads on car was ok. I replaced front rotors and pads on front. Makes a noise now when brakes are applied. Rotors and pads normally last 60000 miles. What is up with the 2012 accord. Any recalls on the brake system?
