Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Address Safety Concerns

NHTSA recall information describes four possible safety concerns for certain 2017 Honda Civic vehicles. An incomplete owner’s guide could omit child-restraint information and increase injury or crash risk. A dislodged power-steering magnet could apply steering assist in the opposite direction during a full-lock turn, reducing maneuverability. Incorrect seatback pads could interfere with side-air-bag deployment in a crash. A weakened right halfshaft could break, stop the vehicle from moving, or contribute to a roll-away if the parking brake is not engaged. Waiting can leave an unresolved safety issue in place. A free VIN check shows which remedy, if any, applies.
