Also if this article is true and this problem is now in the open, then Honda will have no choice but to recall the defective vehicles as they are now wide open to getting sued should anyone be hurt or injured as a result of this problem.

Honda only recognised the Handbrake problem after many months of people forcing them to take responsibility.
look at the VIN - middle numbers

Honda recognised the handbrake issue after many months of failures, showng that it wasn't just a small collection of one offs issues, down to discs contracting, or general user fault.


As to the truth of the article - I guess we'll need to wait on VOSA and Honda to make a statement.
If Honda are happy that everything is within spec, and IF VOSA confirm, then it'll be down to the lawyers if something ever happens I guess...
