Civic Wheel Steel Bushes Missing (Accessory)
On affected vehicles the alloy steel bushes may be missing in all five positions of the alloy wheel. This may result in the wheel nuts falling off or in the worst-case scenario wheel detachment.
Inspect the wheels for the presence of bush and replace wheel(s) in case of missing bushes.
22-25M Civic and Other Models EPS Gear Box Worm Wheel Swelling Failure 6JP
On affected vehicles due to decrease of the grease amount in the worm wheel gear meshing area of the EPS gear box during use the sliding resistance at the meshing area increases and the torque fluctuation when turning the steering becomes larger resulting in an abnormal noise or a dangerous sticking occurs when turning the steering.
For the Honda Civic (FL4 FE1) CR-V and ZR-V models replace the worm gear pre-load spring with a countermeasure part and add grease. For the Honda Civic Type R (FL5) model replace the Steering Gearbox with a countermeasure part.

23-25M High Pressure Fuel Pump Solenoid Component Part Breakage - 6YP
On affected vehicles due to manufacturing issues the high pressure fuel pump could leak
On the affected vehicles check for leaks and replace the high pressure pump if necessary
23-25M High Pressure Fuel Pump Solenoid Component Part Breakage - 6YP
On affected vehicles due to manufacturing issues the high pressure fuel pump could leak
On the affected vehicles check for leaks and replace the high pressure pump if necessary
23YM Civic Lithium-Ion Battery Negative Terminal Defect
On affected vehicles the Hybrid HV battery may develop a fault where battery electrolyte leakage occurs that may result in a vehicle fire in a worst-case scenario.
Replace the Hybrid HV battery with a modified component.
23-24M ZR-V and Others Overspeed Alarm Inoperative
On affected vehicles after cancelling the ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) the ISA (Intelligent Speed Assistance) will not alert the driver when over speed.
Update Multipurpose Camera Unit with modified software.

Update Multipurpose Camera Unit with modified software.
THE ABSORPTION OF MOISTURE INTO THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG PROPELLANT COULD LEAD TO SLOW DEPLOYMENT OR INFLATOR RUPTURE
The absorption of moisture into the driver�s airbag propellant could lead to slow deployment or inflator rupture.
Replace the airbag inflator or the airbag assembly. Honda is still preparing for the development and production of the remedy parts.
THE ABSORPTION OF MOISTURE INTO THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG PROPELLANT COULD LEAD TO SLOW DEPLOYMENT OR INFLATOR RUPTURE

Replace the airbag inflator or the airbag assembly. Honda is still preparing for the development and production of the remedy parts.
VEHICLES MAY BE EQUIPPED WITH A FUEL PUMP MODULE MANUFACTURED WITH LOW DENSITY IMPELLARS
Affected vehicles may be equipped with a fuel pump module manufactured with low density impellers.
The affected fuel pumps will be replaced.
THE REGULATORY REQUIREMENT FOR EMISSIONS LEVELS ARE NOT MET
The regulatory requirement for emissions levels are not met.
Update the software in the Engine Control Unit to improve the performance of the emissions control system
POSSIBLE AIR BAG INFLATOR RUPTURE
Driver air bag may not deploy correctly.
The inflator inside the drivers airbag module is to be replaced.
POSSIBLE AIR BAG INFLATOR RUPTURE
Driver air bag may not deploy correctly.
The inflator inside the drivers airbag module is to be replaced.
POSSIBLE AIR BAG INFLATOR RUPTURE
Passenger air bag may not deploy correctly.
The inflator inside the passenger�s airbag module is to be replaced.
POSSIBLE AIR BAG INFLATOR RUPTURE
Passenger air bag may not deploy correctly.
The inflator inside the passenger�s airbag module is to be replaced.
INNER PRESSURE OF THE INFLATOR MAY IRREGULARLY RISE UPON AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT RUPTURING THE INFLATOR CONTAINER
Driver air bag may not ignite correctly.
Replace the drivers air bag assembly.
SIDE AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY AS INTENDED
The front seat back pad mould (seat back cushion) and side airbag (SAB) are fitted to the seat back frame. The SAB is fitted underneath the pad mould and the pad mould has been designed with a slit that allows the SAB to deploy from underneath the pad mould. Seat back pad moulds that were supplied for after-sales use were not manufactured correctly; the slit process was not completed. When a front seat pad without the slit is assembled to the car it may block SAB deployment and may not satisfy occupant protection performance which is a non-conformance to side impact regulation.
Registered owners of affected vehicles will receive a notification letter that will ask them to take their vehicles to a dealership or authorised repairer for a free repair. The technician will carry out inspection to verify the condition of the front seat back pad mould and will replace the pad mould and if necessary the seat heater element and seat back cover.
PASSENGER AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY CORRECTLY
The propellant used in the air bag inflators may degrade over time due to heat cycles and exposure to moisture. In the event that the airbag is activated it may overinflate due to overly aggressive combustion of the propellant. The excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing severe injury to the vehicle occupants.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the airbag inflator and airbag.
AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY CORRECTLY
Abnormal deployment pressure may lead to rupture of the passenger's air bag inflator case. In the event of an inflator rupture metal fragments could be propelled into the passenger compartment
On affected vehicles replace the inflator inside the passenger's air bag module.
POSSIBLE WHEEL LOCK WHEN ABS ACTIVATED
Due to a manufacturing a check valve in the Vehicle Stability Assist / Anti lock braking modulator not operate correctly.The anti lock braking may not operate correctly resulting in possible wheel lock under anti lock braking operation. In addition the City Brake Active system (CTBA) may not operate as intended.
On affected vehicles replace Vehicle Stability Assist / Anti lock braking modulator
PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY CORRECTLY
In the event that the airbag is activated excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing injury to the vehicle occupants and / or in worst cases a fatality.
On affected vehicles replace the passenger front air bag module.
