00 Honda Accord Emergency Brake Cable problem?
So my car is making this squealing noise from my driver side rear tire. My car is a FWD and I notice the noise disappears once i'm going above 10/15+ mph. But, when i'm approaching a red light, stop sign or if i'm taking off, the car makes this horrible squealing noise from the back rear tire as if the emergency brake is on.
I believe the problem is with my emergency brake because when I don't press the gas or the brake while its in drive and just let the car go, the car still moves but it doesn't move as fast as use to and makes that harsh noise from the back tire. Also when i'm driving off from a complete stop, I feel like the car is being pulled back sometimes like there's some type of resistance or something holding the car back. I feel like the emergency brake is not fully released sometimes when i drive off.
I just want your guys opinion to see what you people think it might be.
Check your brake pads
Best bet is to jack that tire up and see how easy it turns. Is it disk or drum brake?
- I have a 97 Honda Civic and my shakes when I brake. What could be the problem? I had the brakes, rotors, and wheel bearings looked at and the mechanic said nothing was wrong with them.
- Emergency brakes grinding noise when park? I have 2013 honda civic and it makes a grinding noise from the back were the trunk is it makes a lot of noise when people get in or out or any movement especially on uphill or plain straight… My dealer says it normal but I'm not sure
- Did I damage my car by forgetting the emergency brake was on while backing up? Yesterday I was backing out of a parking spot that was in a slight inclune. The car backed up a bit but there was a car coming so I stopped. Once the car passed I continued to step on the gas to reverse but the car wouldn't move. I took my foot off and pushed it again. Maybe did this two more times before I realized my emergency brake was on. My question is did I damage anything by doing this? I have an automatic transmission and the car is a 08 Honda Civic hybrid.
- Problem with 1999 Honda Accord Rear Brake? We heard a grind in our 1999 Honda Accord from one of the rear brakes. The brake pad had worn through on one side causing the rotor to be ground down. The thing is that it only happened on one side of the car, that is on one wheel, and only one side of the rotor was being worn down. The other side looks ok. It seems that there's some problem with the brake itself, causing one side of the brake to clamp down on the rotor more than it should. Does anyone know what this problem might be?
