Problem overview

Some Acura TSX owners report experiencing premature rear brake pad wear, with replacements needed as early as 20,000 miles. This significant issue has led to a class action lawsuit filed against Honda, alleging that a defect in the vehicles caused the early wear and that customers were not informed about it or covered under warranty. However, not all affected vehicles were included in the settlement, resulting in frustration for some owners who faced the same problem. These reports emphasize the ongoing concern regarding rear brake pad durability in Acura TSX vehicles and the lack of adequate resolution from the manufacturer.
