Honda and Acura Driver's Seat May Be Loose
high How serious is it? About this label
Serious: a driver's seat that is not properly secured may not hold the driver in place during a crash, which increases the chance of injury; the notice does not tell owners to stop driving, but the free repair should not be put off.
What's wrong, in plain English
On certain Honda Accord, Accord Hybrid, Civic Sedan, Civic Hatchback, Pilot and HR-V vehicles and Acura Integra models, the driver's seat cushion frame may not have been tightened properly when the car was built. That can leave the driver's seat not firmly secured to the floor. These vehicles do not meet the federal safety standard for seating systems. Dealers will replace the driver's seat cushion frame at no cost to the owner.
What you should do
2. Contact your Honda or Acura dealer to schedule replacement of the driver's seat cushion frame, or call Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138.
3. Get the repair done — it is free — and keep a record showing it was completed.
