Honda Motor Co. will install a brake override system on Honda and Acura brand vehicles starting in August and expects to have equipped all models with the safety system by the end of 2011.

Congress is weighing mandatory brake override systems as a result of investigations into hundreds of reports of unintended acceleration of Toyota Motor Corp. as well as other vehicles.
In vehicles equipped with brake override systems, pressure on the brake overrides other commands and reduces the power going to the engine.

"We are committed to applying Brake Priority Logic on 100 percent of Honda and Acura passenger vehicles produced for the North American market by the end of calendar year 2011, with our first application coming to market in late August 2010," Honda's U.S. sales subsidiary said today in a statement.
