any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

Someone told me that they heard a very recent news report
in regard to the recall
related to certain Honda cars. If you heard or read such
a report, would you tell us which models are effected
and what the problem is with those vehicles.

I only found one web site that you was helpful but
it does not have info about current recalls

the web site is
http://www.recalldata.org

There was a recent recall on '02 and '03 CRV's, there was a problem with
corrosion on the shift cable linkage. Took my '02 in and they had it done
in less than an hour, washed it for me also...

Last night's news. Some CRV's, mostly Accords, IIRC. None were 2003
models. Had to do with the key being able to be removed while the car
is in gear. When I saw that neither my nor my husband's vehicles are
affected, I kinda stopped paying close attention.

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

Robertson Honda notified me on 10/31/03 that there is a recall on the
emission systems for my 1997 Honda Accord LX. I took it in on 11/04/03 and
the emission system was upgraded. According to Honda Headquarters,
recalls are done via VIN's once it is determined that "vehicles" within a
specified production are affected. My previous recalls showed up at the
owners link off the Honda web site. Of course you have to sign up there to
be notified

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

the new model CRV's has one recall and one product update, a shifter cable
update and a throttle cable recall. The 2003 Accords have two also. One is
a air intake system update and the other is a trans update where a
"no-reverse" condition can apparently occur if you should happen to be
caught in snow and you try to rock the vehicle free by using forward and
reverse concurrently over and over again.
The Emissions warranty that the Shardey Inc fella was referring to is this:
on the 1995 v6 accord and all 1996 and 1997 Honda models they have an
extended warranty on the emissions system ( a deal Honda made with the
Federal Gov rather than recalling all those vehicles). Apparently the on
board diagnosis (OBD II) emission systems of those years only did not meet
federal regulations at that time. So for instance, any time the "check
engine" light comes on and stays active on these models , you have a 99.5%
chance that it will be covered under that extended warranty which is 14
years 150,000 miles whichever occurs first. Items like oxygen sensors, cat
converters, coil paks, ecu, pcm and so on. In addition Honda will perform
certain free checks on the emission system at certain mileges and also
replace the distributor cap, rotor, wires and plugs along with an oil change
absolutely free. This warranty travels with the vehicle no matter who owns
it at the time.
If you have moved since you purchased your Honda or are a new owner of a
used Honda contact your local Honda dealer and ask for the number for
American Honda Motors, call them and have them update your info and or let
them know you are the new owner so that you can receive any recall info and
or product updates

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

Interesting. The shift interlock broke on my 99 accord last year. I
finally got it fixed at the dealer last month for $250. Now that it's an
official recall, anyone know how to apply for reimbursement?

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

Interesting. The shift interlock broke on my 99 accord last year. I
finally got it fixed at the dealer last month for $250. Now that it's an
official recall, anyone know how to apply for reimbursement?

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

There should be instructions on how to apply for reimbursement included in
the recall letter you will (eventually) be getting from Honda.

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

Hi,

My '98 Honda Accord was recently recalled due to problems with the
safetybelts in the backseats. One of them had to be replaced. The front
seats belts where also checked (just to be sure).

Re: any recent recalls on Honda cars
 

American Honda Recalls Vehicles to Replace Ignition Switches
Certain 1997 to 2000 Honda and Acura Vehicles Affected

TORRANCE, Calif., May 23, 2002 -- American Honda Motor Co., Inc. today
announced a voluntary recall of certain Honda and Acura models to replace an
ignition switch which may cause the engine to stall. The recall involves
about 1.3 million of certain 1997 to 2000 models of the Honda Accord, Civic,
Prelude, CR-V and Odyssey. Also included in the recall are some 1999 Acura
TL sedans and certain 1997 to 1999 CL coupes.

The situation is created by electrical contacts within the ignition
switch that wear prematurely causing the switch to malfunction. An affected
vehicle will likely experience difficulty in starting for a period of time
prior to experiencing any engine stall. Normally, the vehicle can be
restarted immediately.

Most customers will not experience problems with their ignition switch
prior to repair -- less than 3/10ths of one percent of affected vehicles
have experienced switch problems.

Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by American Honda and
asked to take their vehicle to an authorized dealer to be repaired free of
charge. The repair involves the replacement of the electrical contact
portion of the ignition switch while retaining the original lock and key
assemblies.

Owners will be notified by mail when parts are available for their
model. Because of the large number of vehicles involved, it may take several
months to make the replacement parts available for all vehicles. Mailings
will begin in June and should be completed by September.

Details regarding mailing dates and affected vehicles will be
available on the Honda and Acura Web sites today. Owners will be able to
access this information by logging in to the Owner Link section of
www.honda.com or www.acura.com and entering the 17-digit vehicle
identification number found on their dash. Customers may also contact their
Honda or Acura dealer with questions.

There have been no accidents or injuries reported to American Honda
related to this issue.
