Honda has confirmed it is recalling 9,817 2014 Honda Civic LX vehicles in the United States over possible tire damage, according to a report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Affected Civics were manufactured from November 26, 2013 through January 21, 2014.

"In the affected vehicles, during mounting of the tires, the tire bead may have gotten pinched between the assembly equipment and the steel wheel rims, resulting in damage to the tire," said NHTSA in its summary. "The tire damage could cause the tire to lose air, increasing the risk of a crash."

Honda said to federal safety regulators it has not received any warranty claims, or reports of injuries related to the recall, as of Feb. 28.

The issue was discovered during factory quality checks, according to Honda.

Honda inspected 4,696 15-inch tires on steel wheels, and found 1,886 tires with a tear in the bead, according to the NHTSA.

Approximately 119 16-inch tires on steel wheels out of 1,150 inspected by the automaker were found to have a torn bead.

Honda dealers are being instructed to check the tires. If an original tire is damaged, the tire will be replaced, free of charge.
