I have over 67,000 miles on my EX-T so far. Only fluid and filter changes.

I was a bit surprised myself. I drive mostly highway miles and I'm pretty gentle on my brakes. I haven't inspected them yet, I've just noticed some noise when backing out of the garage.
just rust on the rotors from overnight. Happens to everyone

Purchased on Black Friday 2015 and closing in on 140k Miles. No issues, except for rear calipers which may need to be replaced. Still on 2nd set of tires.

I’ve never heard of getting that many miles out of tires.

I REALLY want to add a +6psi tune and intake / downpipe but will wait a few years to see how the longevity of these motors is before voiding the warranty. In the mean time, the warranty is the primary backup. Watching this forum thread.

Awesome!
Curious, what is going on with the rear calipers? It is one part of the car that seldom has any issues.
Also good to know that the CVT holds up.

Firestone is telling me they’re sticking causing the front rotors to warp. Call me skeptical, but I have a service appointment at Honda this Tuesday to get some clarity.

Ahhh... firestone automotive... :)
Their bread-and-butter is selling shocks, struts, brake calipers and rotors. Every car that comes through the door needs one. :)

This will be me in 6 months... bought in april with 30 miles. Just hit 27k last week :(
Wow that's a lot. I do about 20k a year and I thought that was a lot. Highways are easy on the car though, and if you are the original owner and stay on top of the maintenance there's no reason why it should not last a long time.

I'm sure this is no secret, but I've seen cars that have been very poorly maintained by owners with less than 100k that are in pretty bad shape....neglecting fluid changes, etc. I've also seen the flip side where cars with high mileage but are routinely maintained and still on the road so miles are not the end all be all, esp if you are the sole owner.

Bought in January with 25K. Now have 55K. Still going well. Been a nice money saver on fuel fill-ups coming from a 25 mpg Avalon.
