Front brakes squeal...this feels like a saga in the making

[Whoops]

I have been able to remedy squeaky brakes by using a very fine grit sandpaper on the rotors, just enough to take off any glaze (which I doubt you have so early) and scuffing the contact side of the pads. Additionally a little bit of moly grease on the piston where it will contact the backside of the pads. When I say a little, I mean just the slightest film on the top of the piston. You don't want any of that getting onto the surface of the pads or the rotors! Then to seat the pads after the scuffing, stop with very light brake pressure for the next 50 or so miles. Barring that, moving to a non-sintered pad as a last resort has always done the trick. YMMV of course.

I wouldn't put it past Honda to throw another one our way.

I want to believe that is true at the core of my being. However my gut thinks it is unlikely. Either way, I hope you are right!
