2006 Acura RSX, 2006-2007 Honda S2000 Recalled For Brake Defect - The Car Connection
According to the NHTSA bulletin, the issue is that the brake booster may not be able to maintain a vacuum when the brake pedal is depressed, thus decreasing brake assist. A notice on the Honda website attributes the problem to a manufacturing error in the power brake system components allowing them to be produced outside of specification. The automaker said that this condition could potentially cause decreased brake assistance over time, thus increasing crash risk. What Honda will do. Honda will notify owners of affected vehicles and dealers will inspect the brake booster assembly, replacing it as necessary. The Honda safety recall campaign is JA4. Acura’s is JA5. The safety campaigns are expected to begin in July 2013. In the meantime, owners of 2006-2007 Honda S2000 sports cars with any questions or concerns may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009 and...
