My daughter just purchased a brand new Honda Civic this week and now, with only a couple hundred kilometers on it, the 4 wheels are covered in heavy brake dust and it's even visible on the rear fenders. I ran my fingers thru it last night and it came up black, like you'd find in an exhaust pipe from a car in desperate need of a tune up.
Dealership says that's normal for the 1st few thousand kilometers but doesn't sound right to me. Hondas are great cars and she's had a couple of them but this heavy brake dust is something I've never come across on a new car before.
I buy a new truck every couple years and have never seen that before, but I'm kinda fanatical and wash my truck every few days.
Anyone know for sure what's up ??
