Original document reviewed · Sep 29, 2026

01 / Manufacturer response

What did the manufacturer do?

The bulletin specifies software updating and CVT inspection under 21-046 before the prescribed transmission replacement.

02 / Applicability

Which vehicles are listed?

2016–2020 HR-V, two-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive CVT models; dealer VIN confirmation required.

The document describes a defined set of vehicles and conditions. A matching badge or model year alone is not an eligibility decision.

03 / Coverage conditions

What should you check first?

  • Have the dealer check completion of the 21-046 software update and inspection.
  • Older vehicles may already be outside the time limit.

Take these questions to the dealer.

Ask for the eligibility result, diagnosis and any customer contribution in writing. Keep earlier repair invoices if reimbursement may apply. Recallfolio does not check or store your VIN.
