Vehicles Affected: Approximately 10,000 model-year 2020 Honda Passport and Pilot SUVs
The Problem: The certification label may have been printed with ink that can be wiped away with a solvent, removing the gross axle weight rating and gross vehicle weight rating information, increasing the risk of overloading and a crash.
The Fix: Dealers will replace the certification label for free.
What Owners Should Do: Honda will begin notifying owners March 17. 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.
