Details

What's wrong: The certification labels on the affected vehicles were printed with ink that may be inadvertently wiped away with an alcohol solvent. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 cfr part 567, "certification."

Why it matters: If the label information can be wiped away, the operator may not be able to refer to the information, possibly resulting in the vehicle being overloaded, which can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Honda and Acura will notify owners, and dealers will replace the certification label, free of charge. The recall began June 2017.
