Honda Uses Same Supplier And Recalls 470,000 Vehicles For Brake Issues

Honda Motor Co. said it is recalling 470,000 vehicles in the United States over possible brake fluid leaks — one day after Toyota Motor Corp. issued a recall for the same problem.

The recall covers some 2005-07 Acura RL and 2005-07 Honda Odyssey vehicles.

Toyota recalled 1.53 million vehicles globally for the problem, including 740,000 in the United States. Both Honda and Toyota used the same supplier for the problematic part -— Advics Co. Ltd. in Japan.

We're all still waiting for any agent to post these recalls too:

Mercedes Benz 100k in US, UK, and China 25k
GM - 322k on October 16th
Volvo - 10k Oct 20th
Chrysler - 26k Oct 20th

Why only post Toyota and Honda recalls?

since neither of you have contributed before I'll help you out. There is this nice red button on the left hand side that says "SUBMIT AN ARTICLE" why don't you try pushing it?

Joe, I have been visiting this site since 2005. How do you know I have never contributed anything? Anyways, if I did we all know it would go "missing" into the cyberspace void. Besides, the agents post most of the recalls anyways.

That link is right above the boost/deboost if you haven't found it in the half decade you've been visiting.

FYI Joe, just because you submit something, it doesn't always mean it gets posted. Also, I have been banned a couple of times for stating the truth here. That's how the agents treat some of the truth seekers.

As if the RL did not have enough problems hurting its sales. One thing is for sure, I would hate to be that Brake supplier because you know Honda & Toyota are going to send them the bill for all of this.
