How do you adjust brakes??

The dealership sent my girlfriend a 67,500 mile service notice for her 97 prelude..among the services are "adjust brakes"..I have been working on cars for a long time, never heard of "adjusting" brakes. E-brake maybe, but otherwise brakes adjust themselves right..that's why you've got slide pins on the calipers..dealership know something I don't?

you can adjust drum brakes and maybe the parking brake cable like you mentioned but I would think the prelude is disc all around so I dont know

Yes, disks all around. Must be a catchall term they use for their 67,500 mile service..If you have drum bakes it applies.
