Campaign 24V744000, filed by American Honda Motor Co. The affected population is certain 2022–2025 Civic and CR-V vehicles that received a replacement power steering rack as part of a service repair. This is not the original factory part.
The failure: the replacement rack may have been assembled incorrectly, which can let the tire chafe against the lower suspension or the tie rod end. A tire that chafes long enough can fail.
Dealers inspect the electric power steering rack and replace it if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed. Owners can reach Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138; Honda's internal campaign number is YFW.
This is the part of a recall notice most people skim past. The defect is tied to racks installed during a repair, not to every car that left the factory. So the practical question is not "do I own a 2023 Civic" but "has my Civic had steering work done."
If the answer is no, this campaign probably does not apply. If the answer is yes, or if you bought the car used and cannot confirm its service history, it is worth a phone call. A dealer can run your VIN against the campaign in under a minute at no cost.
A recall campaign number is not a verdict on the car. It is a specific defect, in a specific population, with a specific fix. Most cars in a model year are not in the population.
Because it is the only part of the notice that is checkable. "Honda recalls Civics for steering problem" is a headline. 24V744000 is a record you can pull up on NHTSA's own site and compare against what your dealer tells you.
Every recall record on this site keeps the campaign number, the filing date, the named component, and the official consequence and remedy text. We do not editorialise severity — a cameras-and-software campaign and a brakes campaign are both "recalls," and only the component tells you which one you are reading about.
