What This Recall Means

Component

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:POWER ASSIST:VACUUM

What Happened
The vacuum booster in your Acura or Honda is a critical part that helps make pressing the brake pedal easier. In some 2006-2007 models, this booster can lose its vacuum seal, reducing the power assist for your brakes.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, you might need to press the brake pedal harder to stop, which could lead to a longer stopping distance. This increases the risk of a crash, especially if you're driving at high speeds or need to stop quickly.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Honda or Acura dealer will check the brake booster and replace it if necessary, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice, which is expected to start in July 2013.
