Safety Recall: Steering Column

BACKGROUND
During vehicle assembly, the wrong tilt bracket was installed on the steering column on a small number of vehicles. If an affected vehicle is involved in a crash, the steering column may not absorb the force of the impact as designed.

VEHICLES AFFECTED:
2012 Civic

CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this safety recall in December 2012.

Before doing work on a vehicle, verify its eligibility by doing an iN VIN status inquiry.

Some vehicles affected by this campaign may be in your newor used vehicle inventory. As a matter of federal law, these vehicles must be repaired before they are sold.

Should your dealership sell an unrepaired vehicle that subsequently causes injury or damage because of the recalled item, the dealership will be solely responsible to the damaged party, and will be required to defend and indemnify American Honda for any resulting claims. To see if a vehicle in inventory is affected by this recall, do a VIN status inquiry before selling it.

CORRECTIVE ACTION
Replace the steering column.
