Honda has recalled nearly 125,000 vehicles due to a potential braking system issue.
The company said the brake system on certain 2020-2021 Civic, 2020-2023 Ridgeline, 2021-2023 Passport, 2021-2022 Pilot and 2020 Acura MDX may have been incorrectly assembled and could lead to brake failure.
“The tie rod fastener that connects the brake booster and the brake master cylinder may have been improperly assembled during manufacturing, which can cause the brake master cylinder to separate from the booster assembly,” the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said.
The recall affects 124,077 vehicles.
Notification letters will be mailed on August 7 informing owners that dealers will correct the issue free of charge.
For more information, owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138 and the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
