Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Request proof of battery cable and power loss recall completion.
3. Verify fuel pump, passenger seat sensor, and front passenger airbag recall repairs.
4. Ask about braking faults, unexpected braking, or collision-warning problems.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Honda dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
