    Exclamation

    Wow , i woulda though their woulda been better help from others...


    Bad front Calipers/sliders
    Symptoms:
    1 Tire slides/locks
    Excessive pedal pumping
    Discolored rotors (bluish)


    Rear Brakes
    Symptoms
    All braking power applied to front wheels only..causes car to slide to a stop
    When you apply the Parking brakes, vehicle keeps moving
    Parking brakes apply when Parking brake lever is pulled all the way up
    Excessive pedal pumping

    Were the rear brakes changed and were they ever adjusted prior to driving?

    Let me know which of these sounds like the problem I guess the ASE certified classes would be great for others on this site as well

    considering the minimal amount of info given, i think it was fine.

    She never mentioned pedal pressure, master fluid level, sticking , etc

    And the only thing mentioned about locking up was in the rain.

    Id rather see the car in person, personally than sit here and post 10000 times guessing at what it could be

    I wish you were closer to me!

    Brakes are a very simple part of the car but trouble shooting can sometimes be a pain. If your tires are locking up and usually don't then my first guess would be the Proportioning valve gone bad but that is only a guess. Normally if you have air in the lines the pedal is spongy and pumping them up helps. I am not real educated on Honda's per say but almost every brake system operates similar regardless of the make/model. It would be nice for someone to see it in person and do a run down on it to find out exactly what it is and get it fixed before something bad happens.

    Good luck and wish we would help.

    Chris
