More than 110,000 Honda vehicles are subject to a recall in Canada, due to the risk of rusting rear frames causing a crash.
More than 110,000 Honda vehicles have been recalled by Transport Canada because rusting rear frames could lead to a crash.
The recall, updated in May, affects Honda CR-Vs from 2007-2011.
“On certain vehicles, the rear frame could rust. In extreme cases, this could result in a rear trailing arm separating from the vehicle,” the recall states.
“A rear trailing arm that separates could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.”
This recall may be familiar to some Honda customers because it replaces one issued in 2019, for the same rusting concern in 83,000 vehicles.
According to the updated Transport Canada recall, “Vehicles that were inspected or repaired under that recall also require this second inspection and repair.”
Honda Canada stated in an April post describing the new recall that as of March 23, they have received 61 customer complaints in North America, but no reports of injuries or fatalities connected to the issue.
