Honda Accord Disc Brake Caliper in US

The disc brake caliper on the Honda Accord is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Accord disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Honda Accord, brake fluid pressure forces the caliper pistons outward, squeezing the brake pads against the rotor and generating the friction that stops your vehicle. A seized, leaking, or sticking caliper on the Accord interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.

Signs of a Failing Disc Brake Caliper on the Honda Accord

• Honda Accord pulls strongly to one side during braking, a seized caliper on one side applies more force
• Brake pedal on your Accord feels soft or spongy and improves after pumping, caliper piston seal leaking
• One brake pad on your Honda Accord axle wears significantly faster than its partner
• Brake drag on the Honda Accord, vehicle feels like it is fighting resistance at normal road speed
• Visible brake fluid leaking from the Accord caliper body or around the piston boot
• Grinding or scraping from one Honda Accord wheel that persists after confirming pads are not worn

New OEM-Spec vs. Remanufactured Calipers for the Honda Accord

New OEM-Specification Calipers for the Honda Accord

New OEM-specification calipers for the Honda Accord are brand-new units manufactured to the exact piston dimensions, seal specifications, and material tolerances of the original Accord factory part. They offer the longest service life on your Honda Accord and are the strongest choice for higher-mileage Accord vehicles or those operated in high-corrosion environments.

Remanufactured Calipers for the Honda Accord

Remanufactured calipers for the Honda Accord are original caliper housings completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, boots, and hardware. Quality remanufactured units perform identically to new calipers for most Honda Accord replacement applications and offer excellent value.

Frequently Asked Questions - Honda Accord Disc Brake Caliper

Should I replace brake calipers on my Honda Accord in pairs?

It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Honda Accord, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Accord caliper has failed, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same service conditions and is likely at a similar stage of wear.

How long do disc brake calipers last on a Honda Accord in US?

Honda Accord calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but American road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Accord caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Honda Accord well before that figure.

Can a sticking caliper on my Honda Accord damage my brake pads and rotors?

Yes. A Accord caliper that does not fully retract keeps the brake pad in partial contact with the rotor between stops, generating constant friction and heat on your Honda Accord. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Accord and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
