American Honda Recalling 350,000 Civic Sedans And Coupes


TORRANCE, Calif ( Jidosha Shinbun ) --  American Honda will be voluntarily recalling approximately 350,000 2016 Civic sedans and coupes to update the software regarding the parking brake.  Honda states that no crashes or injuries have been reported related to this issue.  

The issue is that the software for the Vehicle Stability Assist Electronic Control Unit may prevent application of the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) when it is applied right after turning the vehicle ignition off.  Honda will start notifying owners in early November 2016.  Owners can call Honda at (888) 234-2138 or go to http://www.recalls.honda.com/ to check if their car is affected.
