Honda Accord: 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.
Some examples are:
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.
Raising your vehicle with a non-Honda suspension kit can affect the handling, stability, and reliability.
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).
Larger or smaller wheels and tires can interfere with the operation of your vehicle’s anti-lock brakes and other systems.
Modifying your steering wheel or any other part of your vehicle’s safety features can make the systems ineffective.
If you plan to modify your vehicle, consult your dealer.
