Transport Canada recall 2020609 · manufacturer campaign HO54
10 December 2020
Transport Canada lists: Accord 2013–2015
What is wrong
On certain vehicles, the paint on the front axle shafts could delaminate or become damaged by road debris. As a result the axle shaft could corrode. If this happens, the axle shafts could break and cause a loss of power to the wheels. Also, if this happens and the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied, the vehicle could roll away.
Why it matters
A loss of power to the wheels or a vehicle rollaway could increase the risk of a crash.
What the dealer will do
Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect, and if necessary, replace both axle shafts.
