    The rear brake pads wore out after 20k miles. There was still plenty of pad left on the front brakes, but it seems they designed the brakes with not enough meat on them for the rear. I've found other complaints of this issue from drivers oh the NHTSA site.

    Was told the brake pads had a law suit and should not have been so worn at the amount of mileage.
    Was told to have them fixed and submit a claim to reimbursement. Submitted the claim and did not get my money back

    My left brake light doesn't light up when I press the brake, but the bulb lights up when I lock/unlock my car with my remote. Would that still indicate a bad bulb?

    When changing the rear brakes on my Acura is there a release for the cylinder? The cylinder does not seem to go back far enough for me to get the pads in there. Thanks in advance!!
