I posted an article some time ago about my PRELUDE '85 wheel 
vibrates when I brake at hi-speed (>70). Since then, I have
received a number of replies from HONDA owners experiencing
the same problem.

Well, I have my car checked today at a dealer, and the service
manager informed me that they found small irregularity on the
brake discs (i.e., warped disc) and that they experienced 
vibration at hi-speed >65. Surprisingly enough, I forgot to
tell them the vribration problem (it was a general check-up)
and they were able to find out the problem.

It seems that this is a general defect of HONDA's brakes, given
the number of the same problem, could we do something about it
so that HONDA could fix the brakes for free? (I have 17K miles
so warrantee has expired). It costs $74.00 plus tax to resurface
the disc. Even that, the disc is thinner and might warp again.
Any interests or suggestions for such action?
