If you are referring to the same recall that was mentioned in the
newspapers a couple of weeks ago--it involved the instrument panels dimmer
control. It failed in some cars due to heat build up. The Honda dealership
can check your Honda on their data base and tell you if it's effected by
the recall.

ia was referrring to the tranny recall on -3-04 accords. you're
talking about the multiplex recall which affected very few earlier
accords. we've seen on in the last 2 months.

Hank (original Topic posting) get a recall notice for a car he purchased
sometime in July (Aug 3 less three weeks).
