Class-Action Complains Of Honda’s Brakes

LOS ANGELES (CN) - American Honda Motor Co. markets its 2006-2008 Acura RLs through misrepresentations, claiming its Collision Mitigation Braking System "is a collision avoidance assist system" that "'works in three stages' to help 'reduce the likelihood of rear-ending the vehicle ahead' or 'obstacles on the road ahead,'" a class-action complaint claims in Federal Court. Plaintiffs say the system may and does fail at any of the three stages and does not respond to "some obstacles on the road ahead." See complaint.
