Hi,

My 2000 Accord Cpe V6 started having this problem recently: At 45+ MPH, a
high pitched
squeal from the rear can be heard when going over bumps on the road;
sometimes it can last several seconds.
The car has about 39K miles on it and I take good care of it in terms of
maintaince and driving.

Any ideas what the problem might be? I would like to get some feedback
before I take the car into the shop.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Dave

Maybe the handbrake cable broke? Sounds scary.

Don't know about the 2000 but I had the same
problem. Turns out it was a worn brake pad.

You can do a visual flashlight check if you can see thru the rims.
