I had no idea there was a rotor issue with the Accords. After 15,500 miles warranty wont cover it. Oh well, its pretty slight.

Maybe next time, Ill buy some aftermarket rotors so theyll last longer.

My sis-in-law took on of those new Mazda SVU's home for a day when considering buying one. When she expressed hesitation at buying a Ford product, the salesman said it was built in Japan and not by Ford. I smelled BS (Barbara Streisand) and popped the hood and within 30 seconds I found the FORD MOTOR COMPANY stamped on the block.
agreed...first time they go after warranty, they will be replaced with a higher performnace system.

do your research, ford != mazda.

ford owns a 33% share in mazda, however it is its own individual company.

My dad dude. The exclamation point threw me off. Lol. Some mazdas are exactly like ford though...eg their pick up trucks and the tribute. But like the rx-8 and mazda3 are separate from ford. Those 3's are pretty darn fun cars. I know this is an accord forum, but I stand by that statement.

I hope no hard feelings.

Isn't the Mazda3 built on a Focus chasis?
