suspension warrenty void??
have a 07 type s and did the aspec suspension install at a local shop. if i was to bring it in to the dealer for a break inspection... would they void my warrenty for whatever their reason maybe or due to the aspec suspension??
problem i am having.... each time i break, i have to step really far down in order to slow down and to step really hard down for it to stop and when that does happen, i could feel my abs kicking in.
also, each time when i'm at the red light, i let go the break just a little bit and i hear squeeking. it tends to be really loud if i let it go slowly. but breaking and hard breaking doesnt make any sound at all... i know the pads are still good. about 75% - 80%. car only has less then 10k.
what do you guys think?????

I doubt your suspension warranty would be void considering Acura offers the A-Spec suspension on factory vehicles. The only time they will second guess the warranty is if a failure is due to installer error, since you went with a local shop.
As for the BRAKES, squealing is going to happen from time to time. This is due to dust buildup on the pads. Sometimes the dust gets between the pad and the rotor and causes the pads to vibrate which produces an audible sound. You can control this in 2 ways.
1. When you wash your car, spray a water jet right in your brake pads for a few seconds to wash off some of that dust. MAKE SURE YOUR BRAKES ARE COOL BEFORE YOU DO THIS or you might cause your rotors to warp, causing vibration during braking.
2. When your brakes are cool, drive about 5 miles per hour and jam down on the brake pedal and release it quickly a few times rapidly. This helps to dislodge some of the trapped dust from between the pad and the rotor, which helps keep squealing down.
As for your low brake pedal, it seems you have another problem there. Try using your hand brake when you park so your rear brakes can adjust closer to the pads. Also, make sure your A-Spec installer didn't open a bleeder line and let air into your brakes. That would cause a low, spongy pedal.
If you feel your brakes are causing a safety issue, then take your car to the dealer immediately.
