Icon2 FSBs and recalls done on "new" 2007 civic?

We just bought a one owner, 2007 Civic coupe with 60,000 miles and nearly new tires.

Since the purchase, we discovered that there was an FSB that dealt with rear control arms that needed to be implemented in order to prevent serious tire wear and noise.

And, having discovered this site, its obvious that there are a great many other FSBs and some recalls on this car.

How can we find out if they have all been implemented? Print out the list and ask the local dealer to check them all?

If that's not practical, how can we tell which ones are important to ask about?

Thanks.

That would be a TSB...

Sometimes you can check the presence of the new part (the new upper control arms are stamped with a C) other times you can't. I'm not sure if the dealer can check to see if a TSB has been applied or not.

Also note that if a 3rd party did the work it's not going to show up (I just put the updated upper control arms on an '06 civic for someone yesterday and it's not going to show up anywhere that it was done)

Thanks for the good info.
