Honda has issued a recall for 528,000 Odyssey and other models. Most of the models that Honda is recalling were sold in the United States. Honda vehicles are sold at many dealerships throughout the United States, and other dealerships include Cleo Bay Suzuki which sells the Suzuki Japanese brand. Honda is issuing a recall that is similar to the recall that was issued last Thursday by Toyota. Nissan, whose models are sold at Allentown Nissan Dealerships did not issue a recent recall for any of its models.
Hyundai also has not issued any recalls over the past few weeks, and Hyundai models can be purchased with savings using Davis Hyundai Coupons. Toyota issued a recall last Thursday for about 1.5 million recalls worldwide which greatly added to the company’s recall total. Most of the recalls are the Odyssey model with 435,000 recalls being Odyssey minivans. The minivans affected are those which were produced from 2005 to 2007. There are some Acura RL sedans which are also involved in the recall by Honda.
At the moment there have been no accidents or injuries stemming from the recall. The recall is due to a potential defect in the master brake cylinder seal of these models. The seal was manufactured by ADVICS for the Toyota and Honda models, which is why both companies have issued a recall. Honda has said that the defect may cause the brakes to leak fluid if the factory brake fluid is not replaced with the same factory fluid. The supplier of the seal changed its manufacturing process after these models were manufactured to accommodate more types of brake fluid, however for those models which were listed by Toyota and Honda, they were not released late enough to have the new seal.
Over the next few months Honda customers will be able to bring their vehicles into dealerships and receive a replacement or repair free of charge.
