Description:
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2023 CR-V vehicles. The front passenger seat back frame may not have been welded properly, which can cause the seat back position to fail in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 207, ‘Seating Systems’ and 201, ‘Occupant Protection in Interior Impact.’
Consequences:
A seat back position that fails may not adequately restrain the occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Actions:
Dealers will replace the front passenger seat back frame assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 27, 2023. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda’s number for this recall is 6PK.
