Hondas are notorious for leaking CV boots, and when the grease leaks out, the CV joints fail.

You are actually quite lucky if the boot failed, but the joint is still okay. If you are referring to the joints, it is not unusual for a set to go if you have more than 90k.

Hondas usually have the CV boots replaced ($100 per axle) at 60k intervals.
