I hate these brakes

Just out of curiousity. Is anyone else having a problem with warped brake rotors? I've had my turned twice now in 22k miles and they are starting to go again. I know I'm a little hard on them but I don't think they should be warping this easy. I do break them in slowly after I get the rotors turned too.

Common problem on CL's and TL's. I had my front rotors turned and pads replaced under warranty at about 22,000.

I already got my rotors cut twice already and they are fine. The tech even told me to just take it easy on the brakes!

Maybe it's time we contact NHTSA about the brake problems on our cars. Honda cars had brake rotor problems for years.

It happened to me, and all I can say for you Northern VA people is DO NOT TAKE IT TO POHANKA!

Those stupid fuckers tried to tell me that it wasn't covered under warranty!!!

I had to go thru some RAT BASTARD, SCUMBAG named:

MIKE GOINGS

TO get my money back! Don't let them rip you off. This guy is a total cocksucker who has 0 knowledge of automobiles.

AVOID POHANKA AT ALL COSTS if you are anywhere NEAR DC!

SCOOTER,
Looks like Rallye Acura is going to loose their Precision Team Dealer of Distinction Award. They still have not replaced the defective rear bumper they installed on June 21, 2001. Mike and Ken do not return my calls.
