Consumer Description
I am writing to bring to your attention a serious safety issue I have experienced with my 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring, which has 58,757 miles on it and has been diligently maintained with all scheduled services up to date by Honda dealership. On March 18, 2025, I reported a brake fluid leak originating from underneath the brake pedal inside the cabin. Upon taking the vehicle to an authorized Honda dealership for inspection, I was informed that the root cause is a faulty brake booster Simulator. What is particularly concerning is that there was no warning light, alert, or indication of this issue prior to the visible brake fluid leak. The only reason this dangerous condition was discovered was due to visibly seeing brake fluid inside the vehicle cabin. This issue has been reported to Honda customer service center, however their focus was only not vehicle millage being out warranty without offering any root cause or resolution. Honda dealership stated that this very uniqe they haven't face this type failure.
