NHTSA recall 99E015000
Unknown Or Other · Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
Details
What's wrong: Equipment description: accessory driver-side floor mats used in 1996-1998 Honda civic vehicles. Due to the shape of the floor on these vehicles, a mispositioned floor mat could interfere with the accelerator pedal.
Why it matters: The floor mat could prevent the accelerator pedal from returning to the idle position.
The fix: If a customer has a genuine Honda driver-side floor mat, dealers will install a positive floor mat retention system consisting of a grommet in the floor mat and a pin bracket in the car.
