Why this matters

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) has announced a safety recall, identified as NHTSA recall number 26V366000 and Honda's internal number DOV, affecting over one million vehicles. The concern centers on the tire repair kit supplied with these vehicles. If pressure builds within the sealant bottle, its cap can detach unexpectedly.

Safety Risk

A detached bottle cap can become a projectile, posing a significant risk of injury to the user or anyone nearby. This defect increases the potential for harm during what should be a routine tire repair process, making this a critical safety issue for owners of the affected vehicles.

What's being recalled

This recall impacts approximately 1,048,613 units across various 2023-2026 Honda models. Specifically, the recall targets certain 2023-2026 CR-V Hybrid, Accord Hybrid, and 2025-2026 CR-V Fuel Cell EV vehicles. The defective component is the tire repair kit, particularly the sealant bottle.

How to check if your vehicle is affected

Owners of 2023-2026 Honda CR-V and Accord models, including the CR-V Hybrid, Accord Hybrid, and CR-V Fuel Cell EV, should be aware of this recall.

Manufacturer's remedy
