Honda Recalling 406,000 Vehicles Over Wheel Detachment Issue

Honda Motor is recalling 406,290 vehicles in the U.S. over a manufacturing flaw that could cause aluminum alloy wheels to detach, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Friday.

The recall covers certain model 2016-2021 Civic vehicles that contain the 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels sold as accessories, the U.S. auto regulator said.

The dealers will inspect the wheels and replace the hubs and wheels as necessary, free of charge, NHTSA added.
