Consumer Description
I MOVED CAR OUT OF DRIVEWAY SO FRIEND COULD LEAVE GARAGE. WHEN I WENT TO PUT CAR BACK IN DRIVEWAY, THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP AND HIT THE CAR IN OTHER SIDE OF GARAGE. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE TO MOVE AWAY FROM CAR/GARAGE THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP IN REVERSE. I TURNED THE WHEEL TO PREVENT CAR FROM HITTING TRUCKS IN DRIVEWAY ACROSS THE STREET I HIT NEIGHBORS MAILBOX AND BROKE TAIL LIGHT AND LEFT A PAINT SCRATCH ALONG ENTIRE DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK DRIVE WHO SAID THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH CAR BRAKES WHEN HE MOVED CAR TO BED OF HIS TRUCK. HE USED EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP CAR. THE HONDA DEALER I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO WAS IN MYRTLE BEACH, SC. THE TECH SAID HE RAN ALL THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AND DID NOT FIND ANYTHING EXCEPT AN AC ISSUE. THE AREA SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ALSO TESTED THE CAR AND SAID IT WAS "SAFE TO DRIVE". I DID DRIVE IT TO RALEIGH LATER IN THE WEEK AND THEN HOME TO CHANTILLY VA. I HAVE HAD NO REPEAT ISSUES BUT I AM VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES AT A LOW SPEED FOR A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT.
