Honda Motor CO Legend: Brake Master Cylinder May Fail

Honda is recalling 563 Legend vehicles in the United Kingdom because the brake master cylinder's rear seal can become deformed during brake fluid replacement or system bleeding, potentially causing a brake fluid leak. If the fluid level drops without the driver noticing the warning light on the dashboard, brake performance could be affected. Honda will replace the rear seal with an improved version.
