I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE BRAND NEW APRIL 2017. I AM HEARING A GRINDING, SCRATCHING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT TIRES AT LOW SPEEDS (20 MPH). I HAVE 24,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND HAVE GONE TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE EVERY SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICE. I'M NOT SURE WHY MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THIS LOUD GRINDING NOISE, ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE MY WINDOWS DOWN. THE PERFORMANCE OF MY BRAKES ARE ALSO NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY BECAUSE I CAN FEEL THE GRINDING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND CAN HEAR THE THUMPING NOISE WHEN I AM COMING TO A STOP. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY EVEN MORE SO NOW BECAUSE I'VE NOTICED A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE ON THIS WEBSITE.
