Details
What's wrong: American Honda motor Co. (Honda) is recalling certain model year 2014 Accord l4 vehicles manufactured July 29, 2014, to July 31, 2014, 2015 Accord l4 vehicles manufactured August 14, 2014, to January 30, 2015, and 2015 Cr-v vehicles manufactured September 9, 2014, to February 6, 2015. The affected vehicles may have been assembled with improperly torqued connecting rod bolts, which can cause the engine to lose power…
Why it matters: Loss of engine power may result in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash. If the engine leaks oil in the proximity of hot engine or exhaust components, there is an increased risk of a fire.
The fix: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the engine short block, free of charge. The recall began on March 27, 2015.
