Consumer Description
ABS KICKED IN WHEN BRAKING ON AN ICY DOWNHILL. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME ABS HAS EVER ENGAGED ON THIS CAR. AFTER RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL, BRAKES BECAME EXTREMELY SOFT AND TRAVEL MUCH FARTHER TOWARDS TO THE FLOOR BEFORE BRAKES ENGAGE. PUMPING THEM DOES NOT RETURN BRAKES TO NORMAL OPERATION. RESEARCH UNCOVERED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) WITH HONDA/ACURA AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. ACURA SERVICE BULLETIN 07041. IT APPEARS THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL GIVEN THE DANGER THIS POSES (LOSS OF BRAKING POWER). RECOMMENDATION IS TO REPLACE $900+ VSA MODULATOR. RIDICULOUS. *TR
