HONDA announced a problem with the Jazz and Civic affecting a total of 5,376 vehicles.
The footbrake pedal is connected to the master cylinder via the brake pedal pin. It is possible that the retaining clip/locking pin that locks the footbrake pedal pin may not have been installed. If this is the case, it is possible that the brake pedal pin may become detached. This will result in an increase in pedal travel and a corresponding increase in stopping distance. Vehicles built from 2/2/2010 to 4/6/2010 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Recall all affected vehicle and check for presence of retaining clip/locking pin. If found to be missing, a new clip/pin will be installed.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest HONDA dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
