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.

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.
