Honda has announced a recall of more than 124,000 vehicles, including Civics, Passports and Pilots, as the affected vehicles can suffer from loss of brake function, resulting in a potential crash.
The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published the recall June 29.ย
It applies to certain 2020-2021 Civic, 2020-2023 Ridgeline, 2021-2023 Passport, 2021-2022 Pilot and 2020 Acura MDX vehicles. A total of 124,077 cars are potentially affected.
According to the recall, the issue lies in a loose fastener that connects the brake booster and the brake master cylinder. This could cause the brake master cylinder to separate from the booster assembly, possibly causing loss of brake function and risk of a crash.ย
If the brake master cylinder separates from the booster assembly, it is unlikely drivers will have any advance warning, the recall says.ย
Automaker offers free repair, Honda brake recall notice says
As of June 22, 2023, Honda had received two warranty claims related to the issue since September 2022, and no reports of crashes, injuries or deaths related to the issue, the recall notice says.
The automaker is not facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes lead to class action lawsuits.
Dealers will inspect and repair the brake booster assembly as necessary, free of charge, the Honda recall states. The company is expected to mail owner notification letters Aug. 7, 2023.
Meanwhile, Honda also recently recalled more than 1.1 million Odyssey, Pilot and Passport vehicles due to an issue with the rearview camera display.

I purchased a 2021 Honda Civic, this is 2nd recall that I seen today looking at Top Class actions. Feel all the way around that the sales representative misrepresented the vehicle I purchased.
