Trims covered

Known issues on the 2000 Prelude. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year, all tied to aftermarket replacement lighting sold for this vehicle: two separate recalls cover combination lamps missing amber side reflectors, which leaves the car poorly illuminated to other drivers and raises crash risk without warning. The third covers an ignition switch interlock that can let the key be removed without the transmission shifted to Park, allowing the vehicle to roll away if the parking brake isn't set. Owners have filed 13 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you're correcting a lighting fault, checking the ignition interlock, or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2000 Prelude.
