Honda stated that over time the brakes pedals can feel “soft” and have to be pushed harder, and closer to the floor to stop the automobile. According to a spokesman for Honda, Chris Martin, if these cars are not repaired, loss of control and accidents could occur. “It’s definitely not operating the way it should, and it’s safety systems, so it brings it to the recall status,” he said. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has said that there have been three crashes reported because of these issues, with minor injuries, but no death. They were notified of the recall on Monday. It was said to be a voluntary recall by Honda. The automobiles included in this recall are the 2007 and 2008 Honda Odyssey Minivans, and Element Crossovers. Owners are urged to take their vehicles to a dealer as soon as they get notification. |
