Civic Shipping Hold for Recall?

[SONiC]

I am no expert and do not proport to be in the "loop" thus came here to ask those in the know if...

They have heard of a shipping hold on civic's because of a recall? I overheard someone last night talking about this. Apparently they work for the railway and said that they had lots of civic's at their shipping holding facility but were not sending them out because of a recall?

Anyone heard of this through official channels?

I have not heard anything about a recall.

Since they have narrowed it down to 774 vehicles, I am sure they will notify those affected and not recall all coupes.

This was addressed quite some time ago. Back when the Si was first released. Apparently a lot of Si owners had this problem and they found it was a larger problem than initially expected. I do not believe this to be the issue the O.P. is referring to. It sounds like they found something recent, but I've yet to see any other information surface through the dealers.
