Request

What does Honda say about using adhesive to replace welded parts?

Response

Per the Collision Industry Position Statements “Honda Unibody Repair”:

”Adhesives and Welding

Using adhesives in place of welding for component replacement is not an authorized American Honda repair method. It is important to repair at factory seams using the same procedures as the factory assembly process except where specified otherwise in the Honda or Acura body repair manual.”
