NHTSA recall 18V777000
Service Brakes, Hydraulic · Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
Details
What's wrong: The rear brake caliper pistons may have an insufficient coating, causing gas pockets to form, reducing brake performance. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 135, "light vehicle brake systems."
Why it matters: A reduction of braking performance increases the risk of a crash.
The fix: Owners will be notified, and Honda or Acura dealers will bleed the brakes, free of charge. The recall began December 11, 2018.
