Modifying Your Vehicle

Removing parts from your vehicle,

or replacing components with

non-Honda components could

seriously affect your vehicle's

handling, stability, and reliability.

Here are some examples:

Lowering the vehicle with a non-

Honda suspension kit that

significantly reduces ground

clearance can allow the

undercarriage to hit speed bumps

or other raised objects, which

could cause the airbags to deploy.

Table Of Contents

Raising your vehicle with a

non-Honda suspension kit can

affect the handling and stability.

Non-Honda wheels, because they

are a universal design, can cause

excessive stress on suspension

components and will not be

compatible with the tire pressure

monitoring system (TPMS).
