In the affected vehicles, the driver-side driveshaft may not have been assembled properly, and it could separate from the CV joint during driving. This could lead to loss of vehicle control unless the parking brake is applied. Honda says no related crashes or injuries have been reported.
“Honda is announcing this recall to encourage owners of all affected vehicles to take their vehicles to an authorized dealer as soon as they receive notification of this recall from Honda,” the automaker said in a statement.
Honda will begin notifying owners later this month, and dealers will replace the affected parts free of charge. Owners can call Honda at 800-999-1009 or visit www.recalls.honda.com for more info.

Hellbent on finding a journalism job after earning an English degree from DePaul University, I stumbled into the automotive industry in 2003 — much to the delight of my Corvette-obsessed dad. After working as an editor at Consumer Guide Automotive for several years, I joined Cars.com in 2011 and am currently an expert reviewer, certified car-seat technician and mom of three. I wear a lot of hats — many of them while driving a minivan. My first car was a 1994 Mercury Tracer, and I currently drive a 2012 Mazda5.
