The disadvantages of not choosing Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes is tremendous.

This article is going to share some common mistakes associated with the choice that many Honda and Acura vehicle owners make in choosing a budget brake shop or nationwide chain of automotive repair centers that do not use Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes.

Even before the doors of Accurate Automotive opened on May 25, 1997, the technical staff already knew the importance of only using Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes. The reason that our service technicians were adamant about this was because of the expertise that was gained during their previous employment, at local Honda and Acura franchised dealerships, in Nashville and the Middle Tennessee area. While working as technicians in those service departments, they had seen first hand, the detrimental effects of using an aftermarket application for brake pads and shoes. Customer’s that had previously gone to a budget brake shop, would come into the dealership service department complaining about braking problems that were only caused from not using Genuine Honda Brake pads and Genuine Honda brake shoes on their vehicles.

Honda brake pads and Honda brake shoes will always provide the best performance results and should be your only choice as replacement brake parts for your Honda and Acura automobiles.

Many common problems associated with not using Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes include:

1. Excessive heat build-up,
which can lead to accelerated rotor warpage (vibration when braking)

2. Excessive noise
when braking and sometimes when just rolling down the road.

3. Glazing of the rotors
caused by organic composites in the brake lining that result a mirror-like / polished
finish to the rotor. Glazing results in reduced friction which causes reduced braking
efficiency

4. Aftermarket brake pads rarely last as long as the factory replacements and have a tendency to wear irregularly.

Everybody is striving to save money. As we all know, saving money shows intellect, street savvy, and confidence….except when compromising quality in the process; especially on safety issues involving your Honda and Acura automobiles.

At Accurate Automotive, you will never compromise quality on any repair or maintenance procedure involving your Honda and Acura automobiles; while at the same time, saving money on Accurate’s price compared to the traditional high costs of the dealership service departments in Nashville and Middle Tennessee.

For over 11 years, Accurate Automotive has always insisted on installing Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes. In that time, there have been a few shoppers who came in and said that price was more important than the brand of replacement parts, but Accurate Automotive has always said, “only Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes will be installed in our service department”. This is only one example of Accurate Automotive’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.

In closing, when you consider the additional cost of the Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes, when compared to the cost of the cheap aftermarket brake parts; how much more profit could Accurate Automotive have made, in the last 11 years,  by installing the cheaper brake pads and shoes? As far as Accurate Automotive is concerned, the answer is NONE…..When you consider the number of customers who received quality brake repair and the amount of trust and loyal customers gained by choosing to only install Genuine Honda brake pads and shoes, the profit is the customer base that trusts Accurate Automotive to maintain their Honda and Acura vehicles, while saving them money, but without compromising the quality of the repair or maintenance procedures.
