Honda is recalling approximately 70,658 Acura ILX vehicles from the 2016 through 2020 model years because contaminated brake fluid may damage a seal inside the brake master cylinder. This damage can lead to an internal fluid leak that reduces the vehicle's braking effectiveness. Dealers will replace the brake master cylinder free of charge to resolve the safety defect.
A damaged seal in the brake master cylinder can cause reduced braking function, which significantly extends the distance required to stop the vehicle. This increased stopping distance makes a crash or injury more likely.
Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) will be searchable beginning December 17, 2025.
