If this should happen, a no latch, false latch or failure to unlatch condition could occur creating the risk of personal injury in the event of a crash or sudden stop. Correction: Front seatbelt buckles will be repaired or replaced as necessary. |
|---|---|
| 1989085 | 1989-06-12. Engine. On certain vehicles, the accelerator pedal stopper may be bent when excessive downward force is applied after the pedal has contacted the stopper. In the worst case, the edge of the pedal can be caught and held down by the bent stopper. This could result in loss of vehicle control and a crash without prior warning. Correction: A support will be installed to prevent the stopper from bending. |
| 1988048 | 1988-04-06. Steering. On certain vehicles, the power steering supply hose at the connector clamp seal could develop a small leak. If the fluid were to contact the exhaust manifold a fire could result. Correction: A reinforced rubber power steering hose assembly will be installed. |
| 1987080 | 1987-08-05. Engine. On certain Prelude SI vehicles, throttle body castings may contain slight porosity. During vehicle usage, coolant seepage may occur and eventually residue may accumulate on the throttle valve. The residue could cause the throttle valve to return slowly from the slightly open position to the idle position when the accelerator pedal is released. Correction: The throttle body assembly will be replaced. |
A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
