You normally would never need to resurface the rear rotors on this car, we only resurface the front unless there's something really abnormal.
During my last service, I mentioned there was possible rocks or something rubbing in between the pads + rotors on one of the corners. They diagnosed and machining the rotors fixed it.
You are being taken for a ride. 7 mm is the run out for Honda/Acura. I own a 2001 accord, and a 2004 crv, and have never had to replace the rotors, or calipers.
My car started doing that at around 5000 miles. After a few visits to the dealership, they replaced all four rotors. From 60-0 miles, it would vibrate pretty badly and make humming loud noises. It was good for a few thousand miles, but it started to do it again.
Just swapped my fronts again at ~43K. Used VW rotors this time, pads are just fine/have tons of life left. It really comes down to pad deposits from my wife's driving this only around town/short trips and being an early braker.
One of my front rotors on my 2019 was showing significant grooving by about 1500 miles. At 12k miles, it isn't really all that much worse. No pulsing or judder.
Never had any issues except warped rotors on one
as of now it's still got the OEM ones on the rear (and I failed to notice that they'd begun to warp due to already having swapped the front brakes back in August).
OEM rotors were badly warped within the first year and Honda refused to warranty because they were “still in spec”. Of all OEM Honda parts, I think their brake rotors are one of the worst quality I have experienced.
Why are Honda original equipment rotors such garbage?
