Honda is now recalling over 2 million cars that may have serious steering gear defects. The recall is spread across 3 models.
Japanese automaker Honda is recalling 2.3 million cars with serious steering gear defects. The recall is global and not isolated to individual markets, according to the automaker.
This concerns Honda Civic, CR-V and ZR-V manufactured between 2021 and 2024.
According to Honda, 'too little grease' may have been used on the assembly line to lubricate a single part used in the steering gear. But it is enough that the cars may not steer correctly.
In some cases, Honda says, it may be necessary to replace the entire steering gear because someone made a mistake when the cars were assembled.
