Honda recall: Steering

What is wrong

Honda is recalling certain model year 2012 Civic passenger vehicles, manufactured from October 26, 2012, through October 30, 2012. These vehicles were assembled with the incorrect steering column assembly.

What could happen

The steering column may not have proper energy absorbing characteristics, which could increase the risk of injury during a vehicle crash.

The fix

Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the steering column, as necessary, free of charge. The safety recall began on December 10, 2012. Owners may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009.
