## What is wrong

Honda \(American Honda Motor Co.\) is recalling certain 2017\-2018 Honda Civic and CR\-V vehicles.  The magnet that controls the  torque sensor output signal for the electronic power steering system may not be properly secured, allowing the magnet to become dislodged.  During a full lock turn, the dislodged magnet may cause steering assist to be applied in the opposite direction.


## What can happen

The unintended steering input reduces vehicle maneuverability and increases the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the steering gearbox assembly, free of charge.  The recall began November 9, 2018.  Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1\-888\-234\-2138.  Honda's numbers for this recall are C2N, P2O.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
