What This Recall Means

Component

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DRIVESHAFT

What Happened
Your vehicle's driver's side driveshaft may not have been properly secured during assembly, which could cause it to separate.
Risk if Unfixed
If the driveshaft separates, you may lose power while driving, and the vehicle could roll away if the parking brake isn't set, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Honda will inspect and replace your driver's side driveshaft for free at a dealership, and you'll be notified when it's time to bring your vehicle in.
