Affected vehicles include model-year 2023-24 Pilots. The issue involves a loose ball bearing that may have fallen into the gap of a rotating part in the steering gearbox assembly during manufacturing. If a ball bearing falls into the gap of the rotating part, steering function may be lost, resulting in an increased risk of a crash or injury.
As a fix, dealers will replace the electric power steering rack for free. Honda will begin notifying owners Dec. 18, but those with further questions in the meantime can call the automaker at 888-234-2138 (Honda’s number for this recall is FFX), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or visit its website to check your vehicle identification number and learn more.
