As we navigate the roads of life, safety is paramount, especially when it comes to our vehicles.

For Honda owners, this concern has become all too real after the manufacturer posted a notice about one of their vehicles.


Honda Australia issued a recall for Civic vehicles due to a fault that could lead to a fire.

The recall affected two Honda Civic vehicles built in 2022.

'The battery cell negative terminals within the lithium-ion battery module were manufactured with inadequate copper cladding and may fracture,' Honda Australia wrote in the recall notice.


'If this occurs while the battery is energised, it could lead to a vehicle fire.'

'A vehicle fire could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users, bystanders and/or damage to property,' the carmaker added.

Vehicle Recalls Australia posted the affected Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) online.


Those who own the affected vehicles should take action immediately.

Honda Australia urged the affected owners to contact their preferred Honda dealership and replace their vehicle's battery for free.

Honda Australia accepts online bookings, and owners may also call Honda Australia through their hotline at 1800 804 954.

These services by Honda should ensure safety on the road.
