Honda and Acura front passenger airbags may deploy unintentionally high

Reported May 21, 2026 · Campaign 26V332000 · Model years: 2019, 2020, 2021

Honda is recalling certain Honda and Acura vehicles, including the Accord, Civic, CR-V, Odyssey, Pilot, Ridgeline, HR-V, Fit, Insight, Passport and the Acura TLX, RDX and MDX. The sensor that measures the weight of the person in the front passenger seat can crack and short circuit. If that happens, the airbags can go off when they should not during a crash. Dealers will replace the seat weight sensors at no cost. This recall expands an earlier recall.

Honda and Acura Driver Seats May Be Loose high

Reported Jan 29, 2026 · Campaign 26V054000 · Model years: 2024

Some Honda Accord, Accord Hybrid, HR-V, Pilot, and Acura Integra vehicles may have a driver's seat cushion frame that was not tightened properly. This can leave the seat loose. A loose driver's seat may not properly hold the driver in place during a crash, which increases the risk of injury.

Honda and Acura Models Loose Driver's Seat Frame high

Reported Nov 14, 2024 · Campaign 24V859000 · Model years: 2024

In these vehicles, the frame underneath the driver's seat cushion may not have been tightened properly when the vehicle was built at the factory. Because the frame isn't properly tightened, the driver's seat can end up unsecured instead of being firmly fastened in place the way it should be. This means the seating system in these vehicles does not meet the federal safety standard that covers how seats must be secured.

Honda and Acura Steering Gearbox Can Cause Difficulty Steering medium

Reported Oct 3, 2024 · Campaign 24V744000 · Model years: 2023, 2024, 2025

Honda says the steering gearbox in these vehicles may not have been manufactured correctly. This defect can create too much internal friction inside the gearbox assembly. That extra friction can make the steering feel harder to turn, so drivers may have more difficulty steering the vehicle than they should. Honda is recalling the vehicles to fix this steering gearbox problem so the issue is corrected properly.

Honda Fit and HR-V rearview camera may not appear medium

Reported May 31, 2024 · Campaign 24V384000 · Model years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022

Honda is recalling certain Fit and HR-V vehicles that were already part of an earlier recall. Because of a design problem in the power circuit for the audio display, the rearview camera picture may not come up on the screen when the engine is started with a key. These vehicles therefore do not meet the federal rear visibility standard. Vehicles that were repaired under the earlier recall still need this new repair done.

Honda and Acura passenger seat sensor may crack high

Reported Feb 1, 2024 · Campaign 24V064000 · Model years: 2020, 2021, 2022

Honda is recalling certain 2020 through 2022 Honda and Acura vehicles, including Accord, Civic, CR-V, HR-V, Odyssey, Pilot, Passport, Ridgeline, Fit, Insight and the Acura MDX, RDX and TLX. The sensor that measures the weight of the person in the front passenger seat can crack and short out. When that happens, the system may not switch off the front passenger airbag when it is supposed to.

Honda and Acura Fuel Pump May Fail high

Reported Dec 18, 2023 · Campaign 23V858000 · Model years: 2018, 2019, 2020, 2023

In a wide range of Honda and Acura vehicles, the fuel pump located inside the fuel tank may fail. If it fails while you are driving, the engine can suddenly stall.

Honda HR-V Seat Belt Pretensioner Missing Rivet high

Reported Nov 21, 2023 · Campaign 23V782000 · Model years: 2023, 2024

In some Honda HR-V vehicles, the front seat belt pretensioner may be missing a rivet that holds the connector and wire plate in place. Without that rivet, the pretensioner assembly is not held together the way it should be.

Honda Fit, HR-V rearview camera may not display medium

Reported Feb 2, 2023 · Campaign 23V046000 · Model years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022

Honda is recalling certain Fit and HR-V vehicles. Because of a design error in the power circuit for the audio display, the rearview camera picture may not appear on the screen when the engine is started with a key. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet the federal safety standard covering rear visibility. This recall has been replaced by recall 24V-384, and vehicles already repaired under this recall need the newer repair done.

Honda, Acura fuel pump may fail, stall engine high

Reported Mar 25, 2021 · Campaign 21V215000 · Model years: 2019

On many Honda and Acura models, the low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail. If it fails, the engine can stall while the vehicle is being driven.

Honda and Acura Fuel Pump May Fail high

Reported May 28, 2020 · Campaign 20V314000 · Model years: 2018, 2019

Certain Honda and Acura vehicles have a low-pressure fuel pump, inside the fuel tank, that may fail. If the pump fails while you are driving, the engine can stall, which raises the risk of a crash. Honda will replace the fuel pump assembly on affected vehicles, free of charge, as part of this recall.

Acura and Honda Models Have Reduced Brake Performance high

Reported Nov 1, 2018 · Campaign 18V777000 · Model years: 2018, 2019

On certain Acura MDX, Acura MDX Sport Hybrid, Honda HR-V, and Honda Odyssey vehicles, a coating inside the rear brake calipers may not have been applied correctly during manufacturing. This can allow small gas pockets to form inside the caliper pistons. Over time, these gas pockets can reduce how well the brakes are able to slow or stop the vehicle, lowering overall braking performance.

How do I check whether my Honda HR-V has an open recall?
