Vehicles Affected: Approximately 350 model-year 2019-20 Honda CR-V SUVs
The Problem: Bolts used to secure the rear subframe may lack a required wax coating, potentially allowing them to loosen over time and the rear subframe to separate, increasing the risk of a crash.
Honda said it is not aware of any reported crashes or injuries.
The Fix: Dealers will inspect the subframe bolts and replace some or all bolts and tighten all subframe bolts to the correct specification for free.
What Owners Should Do: Honda will begin notifying owners in mid-January. Owners can call the automaker at 888-234-2138, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
