Honda and Acura steering gearbox may make steering difficult

NHTSA campaign 24V744000 · Reported 2024-10-03 · Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)

high How serious is it? About this label

Serious — trouble steering increases the risk of a crash; owners were not told to stop driving, but get the free repair soon, and see a dealer immediately if the steering feels wrong.

What's wrong, in plain English

The steering gearbox — the part that turns your steering wheel motion into the wheels turning — may have been built wrong on these Honda and Acura models. Parts inside can rub too hard against each other, which can make the vehicle difficult to steer. Difficulty steering raises the chance of a crash. The dealer will replace a spring inside the gear and add or move grease around as needed, all free of charge.

What you should do

1. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to check whether your vehicle is covered.
2. Contact your Honda or Acura dealer, or Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138 (recall numbers SJS, MJU, QJT, VJV).
3. Have the steering gear spring replaced and grease serviced at no cost.
