Honda Motor Recalls Over 1 Million Vehicles Due to Tire Repair Kit Defect

MT Newswires Live06-11

Honda Motor (HMC) is recalling over a million vehicles in the United States due to an issue with its tire repair kit, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, or NHTSA, said Wednesday.

The regulator said that while using the tire repair kit, pressure may build within the sealant bottle, causing its cap to detach. A detached bottle cap can become a projectile, increasing injury risks, it said.

The recall covers certain 2023-2026 CR-V Hybrid, Accord Hybrid, and 2025-2026 CR-V Fuel Cell EV vehicles, the NHTSA said.

Dealers will replace the tire repair kit nozzle or sealant bottle, for free, the regulator said.
