Check the brakes after driving through deep water,
or if there is a buildup of road surface water. If
necessary, dry the brakes by lightly depressing the
pedal several times.
If you hear a continuous me tallic friction sound when
applying the brakes, this is caused by the brake wear
indicator rubbing on the brake rotor and indicates
that the brake pads need to be replaced. Have the
vehicle checked by an aut horized Honda Clarity Plug-
In Hybrid dealer. If you hear only an occasional
squeak or squeal when y ou initially apply the brake
pedal, this may be normal and caused by high
frequency vibration of th e brake pads against the
rotating brake disc.
