They turned the rotor twice but it kept vibrating at higher speeds when I braked. I finally got online and read about it in car chat rooms. Turned out Honda was using cheap brake pads that easily melted and stuck to the rotor (something like that, I'm not mechanical). Solution was to pump the brakes instead of holding them down. Altho there is still a little vibration at higher speeds when I brake, it seems to be much better."
