2006 HONDA CR-V Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2006 Honda CR-V has 6 recalls, the most serious being a front suspension defect where a collar on the lower control arm can break away while driving, causing sudden loss of steering control. Three recalls address the same underlying issue with the driver-side power window switch: moisture or residue can infiltrate the switch, causing it to overheat, smoke, and catch fire. This can happen even when the vehicle is parked and not running. The passenger-side front airbag inflator is also recalled because it can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a serious injury risk to the passenger. On the suspension side, the loose collar that can separate from the lower arm reduces the front subframe's ability to keep the wheel properly positioned, which can leave the driver with little or no steering response.
