Recalls: Honda DC2/DC4 Integra
1994 Honda DC2/DC4 Integra with automatic transmssion
In 1994, a recall was issued for 1994 Honda Integra models fitted with automatic transmissions. In these vehicles, a retaining clip which connected the transmission shift cable to the gearshift lever may have insufficient retention pressure. If the clip were to detach from the transmission shift cable, the position of the shift lever may not match the actual transmission gear position – this could result in unanticipated vehicle movement (PRA 1994/2179).
2000 model year Honda DC2 Integra: Takata airbag recall and buyback
In January 2020, recall campaign 6NA was issued for 2000 model year Honda DC2 Integra vehicles. These recalled vehicles had Takata driver airbags with NADI-5AT inflators and, over time, moisture could enter the airbag inflator and degrade the airbag propellant. If this occurred, deployment of the airbag could cause the airbag inflator housing to rupture and project metal fragments into the vehicle’s cabin – these fragments posed a serious risk of injury and fatality. The airbag could also under-inflate and not protect the driver as intended. Honda Australia advised that owners should stop driving the vehicle immediately and contact Honda to organise an inspection. For affected registered vehicles, Honda would offer to purchase the registered vehicle from the owner at present market value (i.e. as determined by a third party valuer appointed by Honda). Due to the age of the vehicles, replacement airbag inflators were not available. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2020/18123.
