Mazda Recalling Some RX-7s: The auto maker says it is voluntarily recalling about 13,900 1993-95 RX-7 sports cars to replace brake vacuum hoses. On certain RX-7s, engine oil mist may accumulate on the brake vacuum check valve, preventing it from opening at the specified pressure. This could diminish braking performance on the first to third attempt after the vehicle is parked overnight and restarted in the morning. Owners of the affected vehicles are being asked to bring them to an authorized Mazda dealer for the replacement of the brake vacuum hoses.
