The steering gearbox in your vehicle is the part that helps you turn the wheels. In some 2023-2025 models, it might have been built incorrectly, causing it to wear out faster than expected.
Risk if Unfixed
If the steering gearbox fails, you could experience difficulty turning the wheels, which increases the risk of a crash. This could happen while driving at low speeds, like in a parking lot or on a quiet street.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will replace the worn-out part with a new one and add the right amount of lubricant, all at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice.
