Problems with 2006 Honda Civic SUSPENSION

A class action lawsuit was pursued and settled with honda corporation in december 2013 related to uneven/excessive tire wear on 2006 honda civics. it was related to faulty control arms. i missed the deadline to file a claim (january 16, 2014), but i believe this is a problem that honda should be responsible to correct. my civic has had 3 sets of tires since i purchased it used in 2006. 2 tires were replaced at 32,261 miles, then 2 more at 39,399miles. after that 4 tires were replaced at 55,750 miles, and then 4 more at 72,450 miles. rapid wear occurred between 39,399 - 55,750 miles, and 55,750 - 72,450 miles. i believe honda should replace the control arm at no cost and provide reimbursement for tires that have worn too rapidly. *tr

The rear tires on my 2006 honda civic ex are rapidly cup, worn and uneven, and making a loud humming noise. the rear suspension cannot be aligned by the dealer because of a manufacture rear suspension design defect. i notice the noise around 3,000 miles. *tr

Honda civics 2006, 2007 have faulty rear control arms that ruin tires and cause unsafe control of the car. customer service isn't. i have a 2006 honda civic hybrid. i am trying to get bad tires replaced that honda's faulty rear control arms ruined. my local dealer replaced the control arms. honda never sent a recall. honda reps have blamed me for not rotating the tires every 5000 miles perfectly. the tread isn't gone. the tires are warped from misalignment - not a rotation issue. in fact, if i had never rotated the tires, at least the front ones would not have been ruined. at this point, i feel ripped off and lied to. tires with about 18000 shouldn't be unsafe and need to be replaced. my first complaints were at about 16000 miles when i my car was the worst car on the road in snow at 5 mph. (i put snow tires on from then to april, but i never had to do that before with normal wear all season radials.) honda america has been talking in circles and making me wait for another decision. check the net. these control arms are a real issue. *tr

2006 honda civic ex, 38000 miles. the 2006 civic has problems with struts. it causes uneven tire wear and an unstable rear end. the cupping wear in the inside of the rear tires magnifies this suspension defect. we wore out two sets of tires by 38,000 miles. the rear end is loose. the tire wear is not visible unless you look carefully on the inside of the rear tire tread. the car was involved in a severe accident in which the car flipped and rolled. the driver lost control after a corner on wet pavement. with the defects in this model, the driver never stood a chance in maintaining control in a situation that drivers regularly face. this problem should be recalled before any other family is traumatized. *tr

I have a 2006 honda civic si that has been through three sets of tires since i bought the car. the first set of tires that came with the car were from the manufacturer and were replaced at 40,000 miles. the second set was replaced at 15,000 miles due to severe tire wear in the back of the car. the dealer does not want to deal with this problem i'm having and just tries everything to get around this. i have read many complaints from civic owners with the same problem. eventually someone is going to get hurt if they have a blown tire.*tr

2006 honda civic has a design defect which causes the rear tires to rapidly cup and wear on the inside edges in as little at 10,000 miles. *tr

The suspension on my 2006 honda civic cannot be aligned due to incorrect manufacturing. this is a problem that effects all 2006 honda civics. the problem is not only with excessive tire wear but the handling of the car is not as it should be. what would happen if i tried evasive action while the suspension is not aligned correctly. there is a very big adjustment required to bring the car back into spec (over 2 degrees in the rear suspension). i was told that honda was aware of the problem but was waiting for enough complaints to be filed to justify a recall. i would have never know that my suspension was so out of alignment had i not gone to a honda dealer for repairs.. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic. the contact received a recall notice for the service brakes, hydraulic: anti-lock: wheel speed sensor and took the vehicle to his local dealer. the dealer stated that the vehicle was working properly. four months later, the rear wheel bearings failed. the dealer identified the failure as relating to the recall and charged the contact $150 for the repair. the contact would like to be reimbursed, but the dealer refuses. the recall number was unknown. the failure mileage was 52,000 and current mileage was 68,000. updated 4/23/08 *cn the consumer stated in october he informed johnson city honda about the wheel bearings making noise but the complaint was never confirmed and 5 months later he discovered the rear wheel was about to fall of the vehicle. updated 04/23/08 *tr

I own a 2006 honda civic sedan lx. i have replaced the rear tires 3 times in the last 50,000 miles. the rear tires cup severely and create excessive road noise. i was told this is due to a factory defect in a rear arm being too short. *tr

Need 4th set of tires at 116,00 miles.just recently, honda dealer advised that rear control arm must be replaced. found honda tsb08-001 that indicated the rear control arm is defective. had service completed which cost $500 and honda offered no assistance. *tr

During the years of 2008 through 2011, i brought vehicle to sheehy honda of alexandria for regular service. on several occasions i complained of excessive road noise. technicians made notations of tires "cupping, noise" and acknowledged uneven and premature wear and recommended replacement of rear control arm. i declined the recommended service on the grounds that i felt like that sounded like a defective part issue for which i should not be required to pay. upon further research i found that honda had acknowledged a problem with control arms on 2006 civics in service bulletin 08-001. in 2011, i brought this to honda's attention through sheehy honda of alexandria, va and through calls to american honda motor co., inc. honda refused to replace control arm. in july of 2013, i received a notice, through honda, from the united states district court for the central district of california instructing me to take my 2006 civic in to have the control arm inspected/replaced. in august of 2013, i took the vehicle to sheehy honda of alexandria for the recommended service. they did not look at the control arm. they instead made a notation that the "rear tire wear is okay at this time" and refused to replace the control arm. when i brought it to their attention that there is a record of this issue with them on my car going back to 2011, i was informed that all records are purged after two years and they had no record of interactions with me on this issue. *tr

On sept 7, 2007. i complain to honda dealership in carson, about a roaring sound on my real wheels. aside from that there was uneven wear on both inner side of the tires. the sound was like a bearing failure. they told me that i need an alignment. so i paid for it. plus i have to buy new tires. then today 9-2-08. it happened again with the same issues. i was told they wound not cover since it was out of warranty. my car 55,000 however on february of this year 2008. there is a service bulletin regarding this issue. with the same symptoms on 2006 and 07 honda civic lx and ex not si. so tried to argue about the service bulletin both honda dealership and honda motors north america. they are giving me a run around and wont pay me for my tires and alignment cost. but they will fix the problem which is replacing flange and upper control arm as stated in service bulletin. i request your kind office and recommend a recall on this issues of alignment because they said its just a service bulletin and not a recall. so its not mandatory. so they wont pay for my third tire and alignment . and the can get off the hook. this is a safety issue because not all people recognize this and still drive their cars unit the tread comes out and the whole car shakes when they are bad and wobble the front steering .i'm a mechanic for (yrs never have a hard time getting issues straighten out. *tr

I have a rumble in the suspension of my car with new tires. the tires i have only have about 15,000 miles on them and honda is saying that it's because i put cheap tires on my car. i have been to barry's honda so many times to complain about this problem. even when i had the original tires on the car and they didn't want to fix it or they didn't find anything wrong with it. i brought it to them at least three or four times. one time they told me it was a broken belt in my front passenger tire so that's when i replaced all four tires. the original tires only had 40,000 miles on them when i replaced them. when i had the tires replaced the store that put the tires on said that there wasn't a broken belt. i still had the rumble with brand new tires. *tr

Rear tires had to be replaced at approximately 18,000 miles. rear tires again replaced at 40,000 miles. rear tires again replaced at 65,000 miles. all tires replaced at owner's expense as honda would not acknowledge problem. insanely loud rumbling noise coming from rear end of vehicle starting around 15,000 miles. dealer said that's normal. independent shop managed to get alignment within specifications although it was "very difficult" to get the alignment to meet honda's specifications. rear end continues to rumble and make loud noise. honda dealers will not fix issue. *tt

Multiple sets of tires replaced due to premature tire wear on rear tires. honda tsb 08-001 recognizes geometry issue of negative camber on the vehicle. this is a safety concern for me as i didn't know the tires were wearing prematurely until i had the tires inspected. the handling is affected due to a roaring or thumping vibration coming from the rear of the vehicle. new tires wear in less than 10,000 miles causing undue burden on the consumers part to replace the tires in order to maintain the safety of the vehicle. honda will not repair the vehicle as it is out of warranty and repairs must be covered by the consumer. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic lx. while driving 60 mph the vehicle started shaking in the rear. he pulled over to the shoulder of the road and noticed that the passenger side rear tire was damaged. the vehicle was towed to a tire company, the tire was replaced and aligned. eleven months later, the identical failure occurred on the rear tire. the tire was replaced and the vehicle was aligned. he stated that the failure happen again eleven months later and he took the vehicle to the dealer. the dealer advised him that the rear upper control arm needed replacing. the vehicle has not been repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 8,000 and the current mileage was 75,000.

I took the car to a honda dealership because the back tires were wearing out prematurely on the inside. they replaced the upper control arms with the "supposedly" correct control arms marked c and did an alignment, but that did not solve the problem! i just bought a full set of new tires in july of 2010 and my car was aligned and i am about to need new tires again! in addition, the driver's visor fell off and was replaced. however, both visors fell off the second time, and are now held on with zip ties. there is a design flaw in the visor as well.

We took our 2006 honda civic in for service and we were told the tires needed to be rotated. when we left and got to highway speed the steering wheel shook violently and we didn't know what was going on. we kept the speed down and made it to another honda dealer. we were told this was normal and it would correct itself in about 500 or 600 miles. we left there and went to a tire shop where they took off the front tires (that were rotated from the back) and noticed they both had flat spots on them that were worn down to the cords. we rotated the tires back to get us by. the next day we replaced all 4 tires. the new tires were fine but when we had the brakes replaced we noticed the flat spots had come back with less than 16,000 miles on the tires. we took our honda in for an oil change and asked about the tires and if they could look at it, the dealer told us about service bulletin 08-001. service bulletin 08-001 is to correct the tire wear issue by replacing the upper controller arms on the rear suspension. we left the car, and soon got a call from the dealer telling us they could not perform the service because our car was out of warranty (even though it will wear the tires out). fortunately there was a honda representative there that day that approved the repair. we still had to pay for the alignment, even though it clearly states in the service bulletin that the alignment is included and even though we bought the extended warranty at the time of purchase. we also got no compensation for tires even though there is a table for prorating the tires in the service bulletin. we had to replace the back tires again because of the flat spots. these were not down to the cords, but there was no tread left on the flat spots. i don't want my wife and young daughter to be stranded on the road or worse because of an engineering flaw by honda. *tr

I bought a new honda civic, 2006 and within one year all four tires had excessive wear. i had them replaced by the dealer. the tires were in terrible shape by that time and the mileage wasn't over 15k. i understand that there is a defect with these vehicles - rear camber settings. the upper control arms. has there been a recall on these vehicle? there should be. i live in the ne where there are many weather situations and the tires are of great safety importance. i now have a baby in the car also. *tr

Car started having excessive tire noise in the rear. then excessive wear on inside of tires. took car into dealer and they said agreed it was a problem but could do nothing about it. had to contact the tire company. tried to do this but not successful. replace rear tires at around 29,000 miles. now at 45,000 miles the 2nd set of tires are making the same noise and have same wear problem. found out on a blog site that honda has a tsb out now to replace upper control arms that are defective on all 2006 and 2007 civics except si model. now trying to work with dealer to replace the upper control arms with new changed design. apparently honda now admits there is a problem with original control arms. we will see how cooperative the dealer is with replacing them. i have the technical service bulletin copy and will be taking it to the dealer. blog says they will not replace tires - even though all the excessive wear and noise is caused by the defective parts. am still concerned about the safety of the vehicle with constant excessive wear to tires. do not know if there are other problems that can be cause by this. *tr

I bought a new honda civic, 2006, and within one year, all four tires had excessive wear and had to be replaced. the dealer said it "happens". i had about 12k miles on those tires. now, again after one year, i have to replace my rear tires due to unusual wear. i have read that it is a design fault of the car.- upper control arms. i bought this car to save money, not to have to buy tires annually and have an unsafe vehicle. my sister bought the same car at the same time i did and her tires had to be replaced after one year also. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic. while driving approximately 30 mph, the contact heard a strange noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. the noise grew louder as time progressed. when she took the vehicle to have the brakes changed, she was informed that the shocks were the cause of the noise. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer and they stated that the noise was common. the vehicle has not been repaired. the failure mileage was 30,000 and current mileage was 34,000. updated 01/02/08. *lj the problem with the shocks caused the tires to wear. updated 12/12/07.

The car had excessive road noise after 8,000 miles. checking the rear tires i found that both ha numerous flat spots. took it to the honda dealer and got the same response that other complaints i have read. i was asked if i pulled the emergency brake while driving. i was told it was a tire issue and to talk to a bridgestone dealer. the tire dealer told me that the tires that come on the car aren't the best quality and i should replace them with a better pair. there was nothing they could do because they said it due to lack of tire rotation. i have never had an issue with tires wearing like this even after not rotating tires on other vehicles. i have replaced the tires with new michelins at my expense. i will have them rotated at each oil change. i would like to think that honda and it's tire suppliers would address this issue. this is my 5th honda since 1990 and will be my last and the last time i buy bridgestones. *tr

I own a 2006 honda civic ex coupe and i have some problems with noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. also at highway speeds i feel some vibrations and excessive sway when turning. at one year old my rear left shock absorber leaked, honda replaced it but after less than a year it started to fail again. honda replaced it again out of courtesy (they said).last year i noticed it has a leak again but i don't want to bring it in for repairs. i also have premature tire wear. i heard about a honda service bulletin about the rear upper control arms so i called the dealer but they said that my car wasn't include in the problem although the service bulletin states all 2006 models are affected. i believe the rear upper control arms has something to do with my shocks failing and honda should do a recall on this problem before it cause some accidents. hope you guys could dig in deeper to this problem as honda seems to do nothing about it. *tr

Tire failure around 27,000 miles from excessive wear on rear tires despite regular maintenance procedures. possibly due to rear control arm malfunction which manufacturer will not inspect. also, manufacturer has replaced under warranty both sun visors due to splitting of plastic (most likely due to bad engineering without consideration of interior heat). *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic hybrid. while driving 60 mph, the contact heard road noise. the dealer stated that the rear tires were unevenly worn, but was unable to determine the cause of failure. the dealer advised the contact to not rotate the tires. the current mileage is 22,652 and failure mileage was 22,300. the consumer stated he has reason to believe the problem is the battery pack(between rear seat and trunk) is causing the rear tires to wear unevenly. updated 07/10/07 *tr

I own a 2006 honda civic. the rear tires are cupping (others call it see-saw pattern ). there is technical service bulletin for the lower control arm, dated february, 2008 that exactly describes the problem. the vehicle had three sets of new tires since it was purchased. first i thought it was a tire problem and i kept changing the tires, only to discover after the car was out of warranty, that it was a manufacturing defect. i contacted the manufacturer, and i spoke to matt caldarella from american honda motor who refused to offer any assistance, stating that it was my fault that " i did not give them the opportunity to fix the car" . the service bulletin was not communicated to me, i found out through my research, but in the meantime the warranty expired. *tr

I own a 2006 honda civic. i purchased it new and have been satisfied with the vehicle with one exception. the rear tires wear unevenly (flat spots) causing a roaring sound that is very annoying. also, during high speed (45 - 70 mph) the vehicle vibrates as if the wheels were out of balance. this could present a safety hazard. when i first experienced this problem i thought that it may have been my fault for not rotating the tires as recommended in the owners manual. however, i have since discovered that rotating the tires and having the wheels balanced does absolutely nothing to correct the problem. during my research of the problem on the nhtsa website i found that there are many other civic owners that are experiencing the same problem. during the past 5 years i have asked numerous civic owners if they were experiencing similar problems with their vehicle. nearly every one that i asked did in fact have the same problem with their vehicle. *tr

I bought a new 2006 honda civic and took delivery in july 2006. from the time of delivery of the vehicle, it was noticeable that the rear end or rear tires of the honda civic were very noisy. lacking sufficient time, i did not investigate the noise until our trip to arizona in early march, 2007. when we arrived in arizona, i got down on my knees for the first time to examine the rear tires. to my amazement, they were worn out at 21,000 miles - to the point where steel belts were protruding from the tires. i took the car to a authorized honda dealer in tucson. after extensive tests, they claimed that the car had no defect - i had two defective rear tires. i told them that it was highly unlikely that both rear tires on this vehicle would wear so badly, while the front tires on the front-wheel drive car were in excellent conditon for 21,000 miles. i was able to locate a service bulletion from acura - a division of honda. the service bulletin 05-076 dated january 19, 2007 stated that the acura 2004 & 2005 had an issue with "premature rear tire wear". the problem was described as: "the rear tires are wearing prematurely (unevenly across the tread). probable cause: the rear toe increases when the vehicle is loaded" the description and pictures of tire wear in this service bulletin exactly match what i found in my 2006 honda civic. i had just checked the air pressure in all four tires. due to the design of the honda civic, the rear tires are difficult to seen without kneeling. when i found that the rear tires had been worn so severely that steel belts were showing, it was clear to me that such premature wear constitutes a definite safety hazard.

I bought my 2006 honda civic as a brand new car and early on began having extremely uneven wear on my rear tires. the local honda dealership replaced something with the rear control arms within the first couple of years, stating that honda believed this would correct the issue. the issue has continued over the past several years, resulting in uneven tire wear (cupping of the tires) and tires that have to be replaced very frequently. the tires appear to look fine on the outside, but are dangerously worn on the inside. i have researched online and it seems that many, many others from 2006-2009 honda civics seem to be having the exact same issue. *js

My 2006 honda civic fishtails terribly, especially in the winter but even in the summer on dry pavement when i hit even little bumps the car shifts to the side. it forces me to slow down but it gets worse between 30-40 miles per hour. i have not crashed due to the problem (yet) but in certainly concerns me and my wife refuses to drive our car! *tr

My 2006 honda civic ex is causing excessive, uneven wear to the tires because the rear control arm causes negative camber on the rear tires. as a result, i replace the tires once per year. in addition to the added cost, the car becomes unsafe after a period of driving because of the wear on the tire - creating cups and bald spots on the tire which could lead to failure of the rear tires and a loss of control for the driver.

Tsb 08-001 - rear negative camber is caused by the rear upper control arm for both rear wheels. as a result, the geometry of the wheel's position will cause excessive wear on the rear tires resulting in bald and cupped tires. this wear can cause early failure of the rear tires and loss of control of the car for the driver.

My 2006 honda civic has experience front end noises (squeaking, creaking like an old pickup truck). we returned it to the dealership who said the front left strut was worn and replaced it. the noise has not abated despite the change. i am concerned about the handling of this vehicle in the future. *nm

2006 honda civic has the worst tire wear/vibration of any car i have ever had...it's not safe for my family or others on the road. honda is aware of the problem and is not fixing it. it's been blamed on multiple issues. this is a serious issue and should be addresses. i have now gone through going on 3 sets of tires. my car only has 50,000 mile on it!!! *tr

I took delivery of a 2006 honda civic si on 1 jan, 2006. i purchased the car with the optional 18" hfp alloys. at around 10k mi, i took the car in for its scheduled maintenance. my servicing dealer at that time rotated the tires along with the regular scheduled maint. when i picked up the car i noticed a very loud humming noise coming from the front of the car. i immediately took the car back to the dealer to have them check what the problem might be. the honda tech told me that the tires( originally on the front, now on the rear) were cupped and also said that i should take the car back to the purchasing dealer for what he said was "misaligned rear suspension". before leaving the dealer, i had the honda tech put the tires back the way they were to get rid of the humming sound. i then took the car back to the purchasing dealer and they said that there was not much they could do and put 2 new rear tires on the car and sent me on my way. now i had a car with 10k miles on the front and 0 miles on the rear. fast forward a couple thousand miles and there i was needing new tires for the front because i was never able to rotate them as advised. at now 27k the car is going on its 3rd set of tires. i still cannot rotate the tires and the rear is still toed in and honda has no "fix-action" for this. also the car cannot be aligned, hasn't since the day i drove it off the showroom floor. i love honda's but i do feel this car may be a lemon and is by far a safety hazard on wheels. i have since parked it in the garage until myself and american honda come to terms. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic hybrid. the contact stated that the tires were wearing prematurely and he heard a loud noise. the vehicle was difficult to control at any speed. the dealer discovered that the upper control arm was defective, which caused the vehicle to become difficult to maneuver and the tires to wear. the dealer will replace the control arm for free, but the contact is responsible for the tire cost. the manufacturer is aware of the defect, but there is no recall. the current mileage was 34,800 and failure mileage was 200.

I purchased 2006 honda civic 4-dr. the rear of the car is lower on the drivers side by approximately 1/2" to 3/4". this is very noticeable and i am worried it may be a safety hazard. i have seen other model vehicles that look like they have the same problem. i have also seen the same complaints online. took to dealership and they said they could not find a problem. also took back a 2nd time with no positive response. *jb

Very rapid rear tire wear due to unadjustable negative camber. within months of purchase, the tires were severely worn and unsafe (hydroplaning and poor traction). now, on 4th set of rear tires with 40k on the vehicle and reports of accidents at websites such as ( http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.f0f75f0/16 ). honda has finally issued a service bulletin in canada for new upper rear control arms but burden of proof is high and not retroactive; appears 2006 and 2007 civics are affected. *tr

This car has very unsafe handling characteristics. possibility of loss of control on corners with bumps, even at low speed. bump steer at speed, seems unstable. light wind blows car around, can't keep it in the lane. *jb

Loud grinding noise emnating from rear wheels. dealer investigation revealed that both rear wheel bearings were bad! the vehicle was only 3 months old, 5000 miles. took vehicle for 10,000 mile service and now the grinding noise has returned. *jb

Honda claims that the rear upper suspension arms should be replaced, but will not cover the costs involved since i am past the date on the warranty. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic. the contact noticed that the tires made a loud noise while driving 35 mph. the tires were rotated and replaced four times. he was informed that the lower and upper control arms were not defective, but rather positioned incorrectly. as a result, the tires became worn prematurely. the dealer will charge $450 to adjust the failure. the warranty will not cover the cost. a report was filed with the manufacturer, but they will not assist with the repair. the failure mileage was 10,000 and current mileage was 68,000.

2006 honda civic - rear control arms (camber arms) cause severe inner tire wear. 85000 mile tires last approx. 30000 miles before inside of tires wear and cup. honda issued a tsb 08-001 which addresses the problem, but honda refused to fix as a warranty claim until recently 3/10/10 and then only covered 25% cost of repair. rear control arms were replaced and alignment completed 3/13/10.*tr

Uneven tire wear and loud road noise. *tr

The problems the consumer is having are with the suspension and tires on the vehicle. since the consumer purchased the 2006 honda civic ex coupe in october 2005, since then she has had problems with the tires which wear rapidly and in an abnormal pattern. the vehicle has been in for service multiple times so consumer could get this problem addressed. she has even stated to dealerships that there is a problem with the suspension and tires when her vehicle was in for normal recalls and checks. every time she stated to the dealership that there is an issue with the vehicle's suspension she was told there is nothing wrong and everything is normal, except the tires are "cupped" or defective. she has since had to replace the vehicle with (4) sets of tires since 2005, it is not possible that the consumer purchased (4) sets of defective tires in a row. consumer found ( tsb 08-001 ) stating "uneven or rapid rear tire wear" from alldata online & honda customer information website. since this problem was never fixed when it was addressed by the consumer to honda, it has since cost the consumer over $1,700 to replace tires. consumer is seeking reimbursement or replacement of (4) goodyear eagle f1 tires in a 225/45/17 size due to poor workmanship of honda dealerships. total of $718.46 if an agreement is not met, consumer is considering a lawsuit against american honda motor co. inc for jeopardizing safety of the consumer. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 honda civic. he heard a thump and squealing sound coming from the vehicle. the dealer stated that lubricating the brakes would not guarantee to solve the problem. the dealer also performed a front end alignment at the owners expense for $70.00. approximately six months later, the dealer replaced a valve in the rim, two rear tires and another four wheel alignment. 2 weeks later while driving 35 mph, the vehicle pulled to the right and crashed into the curb causing the passenger side tire to fall off. the mechanic installed a new tire, rim, hub cap and performed a life time wheel balance. another dealer stated that she needed the rotors turned and the wheel hubs replaced; however, the vehicle began to thump, squeak and she heard a grinding noise. the dealer charged the contact $55.68 to replace the brake pads. on january 4, 2008 an appointment was made to speak with a manager. the manager drove the vehicle and stated that he could not duplicate the noise. the contact received a recall notice for the anti-lock brake system. the failure mileage was 53960 and the current mileage was 63865. updated 08/13/08 *bf updated 08/13/08
