Isn't it a defective seat switch on the passenger side. Has to do with
a child being injured by an air bag because the child is too small.
That's what I heard.

I dont know I guess its best to call up an authorized dealer
to find out. I heard something about fire hazard.
Maybe its an electrical fire hazard ?

You can search for recalls at http://www.nhtsa.gov. Looking at CR-V back
o 2002:
2005 CR-V, campaign #04V526000:
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 6976
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE OCCUPANT POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM'S
SIDE SENSOR IS NOT INSTALLED IN THE CORRECT POSITION AND MAY FAIL TO
SHUT OFF THE PASSENGER'S SIDE IMPACT AIRBAG IF THE OCCUPANT IS
OUT-OF-POSITION.
2002, 2003, 2004 CR-V, campaign #04V255000
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 130617
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE WIRE HARNESS OF THE DRIVER'S
FRONT AIR BAG WAS INCORRECTLY WIRED.
2002, 2003 CR-V, campaign #03V274000
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 247019
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS,
EXCESSIVE CORROSION OF THE SHIFT CABLE LINKAGE COULD PREVENT THE DRIVER
FROM SHIFTING THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION INTO PARK.
2002 CR-V, campaign #03V422000
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 76988
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, METAL PARTICLES IN THE KEY CYLINDER
BODY COULD INTERFERE WITH THE INTERLOCK LEVER OPERATION, MAKING IT
POSSIBLE TO REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY WITHOUT SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO
"PARK."
2002 CR-V, campaign #01V351000
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 6744
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC SEAT
BELT PRETENSIONS. THE CR-V IS EQUIPPED WITH TWO SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS
- RETRACTOR AND BUCKLE - IN BOTH THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SEATING
POSITIONS. SOME BUCKLE PRETENSIONERS USE A PART THAT RESTRICTS THE FULL
MOTION OF THE MECHANISM.
2002 CR-V, campaign #02V251000
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 2
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE FRONT SEAT ANCHORAGE NUT STRENGTH
IS INSUFFICIENT BECAUSE THE NUTS WERE INSTALLED IMPROPERLY.

No. In some cases the service technician has failed to remove the old
gasket when installing a new oil filter during the first oil change
(thus having two gaskets, the old and the new) and this has on occasion
lead to engine fires. There is no recall related to this. The NHTSA
invesitgated this and closed the investigation without requesting a
recall. I believe the investigation has been re-opened. The particular
material used in the original oil filter gaskets had a tendency to stick
to the engine block, making it easy for service technicians to forget to
remove them. The material has now been changed.

Re: - Recall for CRV -
Honda just announced on Dec. 8th a new campaign strategy to assure customers
about the oil filter controversy. This may be what you've been hearing
about. Notification to dealers is as follows:
Background: American Honda is announcing a Customer Assurance Program that
affects all 2003 and 2004 model year CR-Vs and selected 2005 model year
CR-Vs.
We have found that oil filter gaskets on 2003 and later model year CR-Vs
have a slightly greater tendency to adhere to the engine block only during
the first oil filter change. If the replacement filter is installed on top
of the original gasket ("double gasket" situation), leakage occurs shortly
thereafter, usually within a few miles of driving or immediately following a
cold start when the oil pressure is higher. The result has been oil leakage
and, in some cases, engine compartment fires.
1. At PDI, immediately begin replacing factory installed oil filters
on 2004-05 CR-Vs with a service replacement oil filter.
2. We will send all affected CR-V owners a notification letter,
alerting them to this potential first oil filter change problem.
Customer Notification
This customer assurance program affects about 318,000 customer vehicles.
Letters will be mailed to all known owners December 10 thru 17. The
customer notification comes with an oil filter gasket label. In the letter,
the customer is instructed to bring the label with them to their first oil
filter replacement service and to have the service advisor attach it to the
repair order. The label reminds technicians to return the old filter gasket
to the customer, to verify it was properly removed.
OEM oil filter gaskets have a slightly greater tendency to adhere to the
engine block than do replacement oil filter gaskets. Service replacement oil
filters do not have this tendency. Keep in mind that this program only
applies to the very first oil filter replacement on 2003-05 CR-Vs.
I hope this answers your question.
