Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1110852 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | May 20, 2004 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Honda |
| Component | Continuously Variable Transmission |
| Production period | October 2003 — April 27, 2004 |
| Vehicles affected | 21,701 units |
Defect
The control software for the continuously variable transmission (CVT) is incorrectly programmed. When the shift lever is moved to a forward or reverse position and the accelerator is applied rapidly, slippage occurs between the CVT drive pulley and the metal belt, causing the belt elements to overheat excessively. Continued operation may damage the elements, fracture the metal belt, and render the vehicle inoperable.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reprogram the CVT electronic control unit with the corrected software.
