My VIN isnt on there either, but I have an 06 and I have had a problem with the brakes before... hopefully it'll update soon.

Reporting back, after Honda have done whatever inspections that they were required to do, my car if fine and nothing needs to be addressed.
I guess over here they are doing checks on every 06-07 I think they are only around 50 in the country.

Did they charge you for the inspection?

Free of charge and 1 1/2 hrs of my time. The service guy explained that has to do with movement in the brake booster, mine was fine.

I just got a call about this from my dealer. They said my car was under a brake booster recall and I've scheduled an appointment to come in to have them check it out. What kind of symptoms should I be looking for and what parts do they fix/replace?

I got the recall notice in the mail today. But my VIN still shows no recalls on http://owners.honda.com/service-maintenance/recalls. I'm more scared of letting the guys at the dealership near my car than brake failure. Oye vay

What I was told from the front service desk guy was that check for movement in the booster unit itself, over a certain amount of movement / play, they order in the replacement parts and recall for fitting.

Service writer at the dealer said mine was on the list. ( as someone suggested, Maybe all 06-07 are.)

Will be in for oil change and recall on thurs. She said about 1 1/2 hrs

My pedal softer than I'd like but I think thats because I compare too my old 911."hand of God" units

My carfax says that I have a recall, but Honda's site says that I don't. What should I do? Wait? or should I go in anyway?

I got a letter in the mail as well as a phone call from honda, I'd like to know if mine needs to be fixed or not before I take it in and have them look at it/fix it as well
