| 2002 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS | WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, BOTH HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT AND I PULLED OVER AS TO NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND THERE WAS A SMELL OF BURNING ELECTRICAL WIRING. I TURNED OFF THE LIGHT SWITCH AND THE SMELL WENT AWAY. IN MY INVESTIGATION I FOUND THE FOLLOWING: DATE ANNOUNCED: FEBRUARY 24, 2004 VEHICLES AFFECTED: 440,000 SUMMARY: ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE LOW-BEAM TERMINAL ON THE HEAD LIGHT WIRE HARNESS CAN OVERHEAT AND COULD CAUSE THE LOW BEAMS TO FAIL WITHOUT WARNING.CONSEQUENCE: AN UNEXPECTED LOSS OF LOW BEAMS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH. ACTIONS: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH AND COUPLER FOR SIGNS OF HEAT DAMAGE. IF HEAT DAMAGE IS PRESENT, THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE SWITCH AND COUPLER. IF NO HEAT DAMAGE IS PRESENT, THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH AND ONE MATING PIN IN THE COUPLER. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON APRIL 5, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009. FOR DETAILED INFORMATION & SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS, SEE THE OFFICIAL NHTSA PAGE CONCERNING RECALL #04V086000 ยป I AM HAVING THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE AS I HAD A MECHANIC LOOK AT THE WIRING CONNECTOR AND IT WAS BURNT. THE COST FOR REPAIR IS IN EXCESS OF $700.00 AND THIS IS IN MY OPINION A SAFETY ISSUE AS I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE AT NIGHT. *TR UPDATED 05/02/11 *BF UPDATED 05/04/11 |
| 1999 | STRUCTURE | NOT A COMPLAINT. INFORMATION ONLY. MY 1999 HONDA CRV IS A GREAT CAR WITH ONLY MINIMAL NORMAL REPAIRS. DURING A PANIC STOP IN A 45 MPH SPEED ZONE I BROKE A BRAKE LINE GOING TO THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL AND WAS WITHIN MILLIMETERS OF CREAMING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN I FINALLY GOT THE CAR TO A MECHANIC IT WAS FOUND THAT THE LINE HAD BEEN RUBBING ON THE FRAME AND BECAME WEAKENED AND HAD BROKEN UNDER THE EXTRA PRESSURE. WARNING: HAVE YOUR MECHANIC CHECK YOUR BRAKE LINES TO INSURE THEY ARE NOT RUBBING ON SOMETHING THAT WILL WEAKEN THEM AND CAUSE THEM TO FAIL WHEN YOU REALLY, REALLY NEED THEM. SIGNED: HAPPY HONDA OWNER. *TR |
