UK Vehicle Recall Check
Honda is one of the most reliability-rated brands in the UK, with the Jazz, Civic, HR-V and CR-V all enduring used-market favourites. Enter any UK registration to see whether an outstanding manufacturer recall is on file.
Enter the vehicle's UK registration to begin.
Our combined check pulls the DVSA recall database, the SMMT manufacturer feed and the DVLA recall archive going back to 1992, so where a recall exists you get the live outstanding status, the recall description and every past campaign for the same model in one place.
The UK government's official recall register. Confirms whether a recall is outstanding for the vehicle.
Industry data from vehicle manufacturers. Typically includes the recall description, not just a flag.
Every UK recall campaign issued since 1992. Surfaces the historical campaigns for the same make and model alongside the live status.
Honda was at the centre of the original Takata airbag programme — one of the largest recall campaigns in automotive history — and Takata-related campaigns continue to filter through DVSA records on older Civics, Jazz and CR-Vs. More recent Honda recalls have covered fuel-pump impeller defects on selected models and engine oil-dilution service actions on the 1.5 VTEC TURBO CR-V. Honda repairs every safety recall free of charge, but recall letters frequently miss the current keeper on long-lived used Hondas — a quick check confirms whether anything needs booking in at a Honda Centre.
Looking for the recall history of a specific Honda? Each model page covers known UK safety campaigns, generation coverage and model-specific FAQs. The combined DVSA + SMMT check is the same on every page.
Recall data is available for every UK-registered Honda, including the Jazz, Jazz Hybrid, Civic, Civic Type R, HR-V, CR-V, e:Ny1, Honda e, Insight, Accord, Stepwgn and NSX. Enter any UK registration above to check.
A non-exhaustive editorial summary of recent UK safety campaigns. Run a check to see whether any of these apply to a specific vehicle.
Fuel-pump impeller defect campaign that could in rare cases cause the fuel pump to fail and the engine to stall, requiring a free pump replacement.
1.5 VTEC TURBO engine oil-dilution service action: under specific short-trip conditions, fuel could dilute the engine oil. Addressed via a software update and a revised oil-change interval.
Ongoing Takata airbag inflator replacement programme — Honda was the most-affected brand globally — covering a wide range of older model years across the UK fleet.
The full list of DVLA-recorded Honda safety recalls. Showing the most recent 20 of the archive — run a check on a specific registration to see whether any recall is outstanding for that vehicle.

Enter the vehicle's registration mark (VRM) and pay £1.99. We query the DVSA recall database and the SMMT manufacturer feed in a single request and return the combined result. For most Honda vehicles you'll see whether a recall is outstanding, the source database, and (where available) a description of the recall.
DVSA (the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency) maintains the UK government's official recall register and flags whether a recall is outstanding. SMMT (the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders) aggregates manufacturer-supplied data which often includes the recall description as well as the outstanding flag. Combining both maximises coverage and detail.
Both DVSA and SMMT data sources are continually updated as manufacturers report new safety campaigns. Each check returns a timestamp showing when the data was last verified for that vehicle.
Some vehicles aren't currently listed in either database (very new registrations, very old vehicles, grey imports, and certain commercial variants are the usual reasons). When that happens we'll show "Unknown" and direct you to the manufacturer's recall portal so you can confirm directly. A refund is available if you'd like one.
Contact any authorised franchised dealer for the brand. Manufacturers carry out safety recalls free of charge, regardless of who currently owns the vehicle and regardless of age. You'll typically need the vehicle's VIN; the report includes it where the database returns one.
No account is needed to start a check. After payment we'll email you a magic link so you can access the report any time, and a shareable link if you want to send the result to a buyer, seller, or dealer.
Only if it is still outstanding for the VIN. Once a Honda Centre has logged the airbag-inflator replacement against the VIN, the recall is marked completed and will no longer appear as outstanding.
Yes. Honda e and e:Ny1 are UK-registered Hondas and are covered by the same DVSA + SMMT combined check, including any EV-specific recall campaigns (battery, charging system, drive software).
Yes — in fact, this is exactly the case where checks are most valuable. Older Hondas have had several waves of Takata airbag recalls, and the original keeper’s contact details are often long-out-of-date by then. Manufacturers fix safety recalls free of charge regardless of vehicle age.
Honda maintains an official recall lookup tool. Our combined check pulls from DVSA and SMMT to give you broader coverage, but you can also check the manufacturer's portal directly.
