Details
What's wrong: These vehicles were assembled with the incorrect steering column assembly.
Why it matters: 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.
