Transport Canada recall 2025340 · manufacturer campaign HQ32

19 June 2025

Transport Canada lists: Accord 2013

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the paint on the front axle shafts could become damaged. As a result, the axle shaft(s) could corrode. If this happens, the axle shaft(s) could break and cause a loss of power to the wheels. Additionally, if the vehicle is parked and the parking brake isn't applied, the vehicle could roll away. Note: This recall is an expansion of recall HO54 (Transport Canada recall no. 2020-609).

Why it matters

A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash. A parked vehicle that moves suddenly could create a risk of a crash or an injury.

What the dealer will do

Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the axle shaft(s).

What is wrong

Why it matters

A loss of power to the wheels or a vehicle rollaway could increase the risk of a crash.

Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect, and if necessary, replace both axle shafts.
