AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO. · Reported to NHTSA Sep 29, 1966

Recalls apply to specific vehicles, not to every vehicle of a model year. Check your VIN with NHTSA or your manufacturer's dealer to confirm whether a recall affects your vehicle.

What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

Notes

POSSIBILITY THAT TRANSMISSION CAN BE ACCIDENTALLY SHIFTED FROM THIRD TO FIRST GEAR (RATHER THAN FOURTH GEAR) CAUSING ABRUPT DECELERATION AT SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 30 MPH.(REPLACE SHIFT DRUM STOPPER PLATE AND STOPPER ARM TO PRECLUDE THIS OCCURRENCE.)

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

NHTSA publishes recalls against vehicles we may not have imported, and equipment recalls are not always tied to a specific make and model. Check the official record for what it covers.
