Honda Civic recalls by model year
NHTSA's file holds 26 campaigns on Civic model years 2012 to 2026, at most 6 a year; the 2013 Civic has none. Pick your year to see each campaign.
Honda's compact car has an even recall record: 26 campaigns cover Civic model years 2012 to 2026 in NHTSA's file, including the Civic Hatchback, Si, Type R and Hybrid, which NHTSA sometimes lists under their own names. No year carries more than 6 campaigns and the 2013 has none. The tenth generation, launched for 2016 with a turbocharged engine, brought 5 campaigns on its first year and 6 on the 2017, on its electric parking brake, LED lights, half shafts and steering. The power train, steering and fuel system tie for first place with 4 campaigns each. NCAP has rated the Civic five stars overall every year since 2016. The 2025 Civic Hybrid raised the top EPA rating of the range to 49 mpg combined, against 36 for the best 2024 Civic.

Steering on the 2022 to 2025 cars
24V744000, received on October 3, 2024, covered 1.7 million Hondas and Acuras, the 2022 to 2025 Civic among them: a worm wheel in the steering gearbox could deform and make steering harder to turn. It is one of several steering campaigns on the eleventh generation, which also had one on replacement steering racks fitted during service. If steering on a recent Civic feels heavy, ask a Honda dealer about the campaign before anything else.
The air bag campaigns on 2001 to 2011 Civics
Civic model years before 2012 are outside this page, but they matter: the 2001 to 2005 Civic was among the Takata-equipped cars most at risk, and Honda's inflator campaigns covered Civics through 2011. The Takata guide explains which ones carry a do-not-drive warning. On the years shown here, the latest campaign naming the Civic, 26V332000, received on May 21, 2026, concerns the air bags.
Type R and Si
The Type R appears in campaigns on its seatback pads, half shafts and owner's guide, the last a compliance campaign because the guide must explain certain safety features. Use the recall check with Civic Type R for the full list. The Accord and CR-V pages share many Honda campaigns with the Civic, including the 2023 fuel pump recall, 23V858000.
