I went to the dealer to have them check out the brake shuddering, all they said was that I needed to machine my discs and it will be fixed. I declined their offer (as they told me it will cost me $$$), knowing that there is an underlying issue with the discs/pads. I wonder where to go from here...

Your dealer should machine the disc's under warranty as there is a known problem. My dealer machined my disc's at 30k then replaced disc's & pad's at 40k & have just had the disc's & pads replaced again at 82k, all under warranty. If your dealer won't come to the party, tell them you will go directly to HMCA. That will change thier attitude.
Im having this problem now, as soon as i hit the brakes the steering wheel shakes.
Any adivce on how to talk to the dealership about it?
After reading this thread for a while now,i decided to replace my front pads with Delphi Lockheed ones.so far they seem good,firmer pedal,pull up a LOT better,low dust.Not cheap!(Chris from I S racing reccomended them).Have 7300ks.now.I'll let you know how they go.
Yeah, as vtec.net found out with their TSX, the stock pads were the ones causing the shuddering by leaving deposits. After switching to aftermarket pads, the problem went away.
the initial problem is, however if you change to non-gen pads and still experience brake shudder i HIGHLY doubt it'll be covered under warranty.
it is a fairly common problem (in fact we had one in our workshop last week). usually the machine and pad replacement fixes the problem, however there is the extremely odd occaision the issue reoccurs.
if you are experiencing shudder under braking don't hesitate to have a word with you dealer service manager about it
