Honda Recalls 259,000 Acuras Over Loose Brake Pedals
Honda (NYSE:HMC) is recalling 259,033 SUVs and sedans over a loose brake-pedal pivot pin that can let the pedal shift out of position and reduce braking effectiveness. The recall affects certain 20212025 Acura TLX sedans, 20232025 Acura MDX crossovers and 20232025 Honda Pilot SUVs. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the brake-pedal pivot pin wasn't secured properly at the factory, so the pedal can move unexpectedly and violate FMVSS 108 (lighting) and 135 (brakes) safety standards. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 4 Warning Sign with HMC. A misaligned brake pedal could delay or prevent full brake application, raising the risk of a crash. Owners may not notice the issue until it's too lateespecially in emergency stops. Dealers will inspect and replace the pivot-pin assembly at no cost. Honda will notify owners by mail starting in July; affected drivers can also check recall status at or by calling Honda customer service. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Honda Launches Incredible Passport Lease Deal for June
The Honda Pilot has always been a solid submission in the midsize SUV segment, with Honda's no-frills approach garnering loyal fans across its lineup. Now that the 2026 Honda Passport has made its debut, Honda is already offering attractive lease deals to get you behind the wheel of its latest Passport. For a limited time, you can secure a three-year lease on a 2026 Honda Passport RTL, featuring rugged styling and a spacious interior in a midsize package. Sitting between the CR-V and Pilot in Honda's SUV lineup, the Passport brings a host of agility and comfort for those who like to get off the beaten path when they're not commuting. For June 2025, you can lease a 2026 Honda Passport for $509 per month, with a down payment of just $5,099 at lease signing. This lease stretches for 36 months and has an allowance for 10,000 miles of driving each year of your lease (30,000 miles overall). Currently, Honda is only offering lease terms on its 2026 Passport RTL trim, and this deal is only available until July 7, 2025. The RTL might be the entry-level Passport, but it's no slouch. A 285 horsepower 3.5-liter V6 comes standard, along with Honda's i-VTM4 All Wheel Drive (AWD) system. If you're looking for an SUV that can tow, the Passport has you covered. The V6 produces 262 lb-ft of torque and is capable of towing 5,000 pounds with ease. Miles per gallon is appreciably good for the class as well. The 2026 Honda Passport RTL earns you 19 mpg in the city, 25 mpg on the highway, and 21 mpg in combined driving. Not bad for a V6 with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Honda offers its 2026 Passport RTL lease for vehicles without "premium" exterior colors, which means you'll be able to choose from Crystal Black Pearl, Modern Steel Metallic, or Obsidian Blue Pearl. All Passport RTLs feature a gray leather and cloth interior, along with 18-inch Shark Gray alloy wheels. Two-row seating is standard, providing ample cargo room behind the rear seat. The 2026 Passport features a slightly more rugged design, with a boxier and more aggressive appearance, positioning it well for off-road driving. Honda kept the same V6 as the previous generation Passport, but bumped the horsepower a bit for 2026. Its wheelbase is longer, the track is wider, and ground clearance has been bumped to 8.3 inches. Inside, the infotainment screen is significantly larger, and heated seats are now standard. There are still plenty of hardware buttons and knobs for essential items like air conditioning and heating, so fans of tactile controls will be satisfied as well. Leasing a 2026 Honda Passport is straightforward, but there's a bit of fine print, too. The $5,099 down payment doesn't cover tax, title, license, or dealer fees. The lease is available through Honda Financial Services and is offered to "well-qualified customers," which typically means a credit score of 700 or higher. The lease is based on an MSRP of $46,200, with an actual net capitalization of $42,050.55. Over the life of the lease, Honda states that you'll pay $18,324 in monthly payments, and the end-of-lease option to purchase the vehicle is $30,954.00. Anything over 10,000 miles per year will incur a cost of 20 cents per mile, and the lessee is responsible for vehicle maintenance and any excessive wear and tear. Honda is offering a standard lease package on a great SUV. If you're interested in leasing a 2026 Honda Passport, contact your local dealer soon. Honda notes that dealership participation is optional, so you may need to do some searching in your area to find a dealer offering this lease. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc.

AWD versions provide higher towing capability with a maximum capacity of 5,000 lbs, while FWD trims can tow up to 3,500 lbs. Honda offers up to seven available drive modes within the 2025 Pilot, including Normal, ECON, Sport, Snow, Trail, Sand, and Tow. The base Sport has a 7-inch infotainment display, but most trims get a 9-inch touchscreen. Honda's TrailSport Pilot distinguishes itself with steel skid plates, a trailer hitch, all-season floor mats, and easy-to-clean upholstery. Those who aren't fully committed to purchasing a 2025 Honda Pilot may be more inclined to lease. If you're interested in leasing a 2025 Pilot but aren't sure what trim to select, you'll benefit from knowing that all of Honda's current lease offers for this model center around one variant, and there's an enticing catch. The Honda Pilot lease deal for June 2025 From now until July 7, all of Honda's lease offers for the 2025 Pilot are for the model's EX-L variant. If you want AWD without paying additional monthly cash, you're in luck, as Honda is leasing the 2025 FWD EX-L and AWD EX-L for the same monthly price of $479 for 36 months. However, you'll have to put $5,899 down on an AWD Pilot EX-L instead of the FWD version's $4,999 due at signing. While many major markets, such as New York City, Los Angeles, California, and Miami, Florida, are consistent in this offer—some areas, such as Seattle, Washington, Portland, Oregon, and Madison, Wisconsin, offer the lease at $489 per month for 36 months, with $5,899 due at signing for AWD and $4,799 due for FWD. Consider the monthly payment cost, taxes, and fees before signing a lease. Lease offers vary by metro market. Check your local pricing here. 2025 Honda Pilot Elite — Source: Honda Prefer $0 down? Some lessees prefer to put $0 down to reduce upfront costs. In this case, drivers leasing a FWD 2025 Pilot would pay about $605 per month instead of $479 or $630 monthly for an AWD version. Lessees putting $0 down in markets leasing the 2025 Pilot at $489 per month for 36 months, with $5,899 due at signing for AWD and $4,799 due for FWD, would pay around $609 per month for the FWD variant and $639 per month for AWD. Final thoughts Honda's current 2025 Pilot lease offer is advantageous for those looking to mitigate costs when upgrading from FWD to AWD and drivers unsure which trim to select. Still, before deciding, be sure to take the 2025 Pilot on a test drive and compare it against rivals such as Kia's Telluride, Hyundai's Palisade, and Toyota's Highlander. 2025 Honda Pilot Black Edition — Source: Honda *Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.
