Honda Recalls 2006-'07 Civics Over Damaged Wheel Sensors and Bearings Honda is recalling 182,756 Civic coupes and sedans from model years 2006-'07 to fix damaged rear wheel sensors and bearings that could cause a wheel to fall off the car. The automaker says dealers will inspect rear antilock-brake sensors and wheel bearings for damage and replace them free of charge. The recall is to start today (September 17). The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says that on certain Civics, the wheel speed sensor housing uses an O-ring seal to prevent leakage to or from the wheel bearing. "If assembled improperly, the O-ring may not seal properly, allowing water to enter the wheel bearing and eventually cause damage to the bearing, especially in areas where use of road salt is prevalent," it said. "If the driver continues to drive with this condition, it is possible for the wheel bearing to become loose. This could cause a wheel to fall off the vehicle, possibly resulting in a crash."Two such cases were reported in Canada. Honda is also recalling 19,900 Civic sedans and hybrids from the 2006 model year to repair a brake-light switch. The problem can cause Civics with automatic transmissions to become stuck in Park. Honda can be contacted at (800) 999-1009. What this means to you: If you own any of the aforementioned Hondas, better have them checked out ASAP at the dealership.
