Recall 99V069000: Lower Ball Joints Wear
Certain vehicles were manufactured with ball joints that can prematurely wear out and, in the worse case, the ball joint would separate causing the front
suspension to collapse.
This condition would result in vehicle deceleration and a sudden loss of power. Also steering controllability would be reduced.
Dealers will replace the front suspension lower ball joints. Owner notification began May 17, 1999. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized
dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009 or Acura
1-800-382-2238. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
