Honda is recalling 182,756 Civics due to a potential failure in the wheel bearings. The o-ring seal that seals the speed sensor housing may not seat properly allowing water to enter the wheel bearing potentially causing the bearing to fail. If the bearing fails, it could allow the wheel to fall off of the vehicle potentially causing a crash. Dealers will inspect the ABS sensors and wheel bearings and will replace them free of charge.
