Solutions for Accord brake noise: Remove the brake pads and grind the 90-degree straight edges into beveled edges, which will significantly reduce the noise, or replace them with higher-quality brake pads. Brake pads, also known as brake linings, are the most critical safety components in a car's braking system. The effectiveness of all braking performance is decisively influenced by the brake pads. The Accord is a mid-size car launched by GAC Honda, with dimensions of 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2830mm. From the side view, the Accord features a three-dimensional waistline design that extends from the front to the rear of the car, visually elongating the vehicle's body length.
I've been driving my Accord for five or six years and have encountered brake squealing several times. I remember last year on the highway, there was always a screeching sound when I braked, which really scared me. I suspected it was due to worn brake pads or dust and debris stuck in them. I first checked the thickness and wear of the brake discs myself and found that the front pads were almost worn out. I quickly replaced them with new ones, opting for a higher-quality OEM brand, and had the mechanic clean the calipers and lubricate the pins while at it. The noise disappeared immediately. I usually avoid parking in dusty areas and give the wheel hub area a quick rinse every week to prevent the issue from recurring. Brakes are a matter of safety, so never be lazy or delay—check them as soon as you hear any noise to avoid major accidents and delays. Regular maintenance is crucial. My Accord gets a brake inspection every year, and now it's quiet and reliable.
