Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1115910 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | December 26, 2005 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Honda |

| Production period | August 17, 2005 — November 16, 2005 |
| Vehicles affected | 144 units |
Defect
The manufacturing process for the headlamp power supply wiring (engine stop switch assembly) was improper, resulting in loose terminal connections inside the headlamp case. Vibration during operation causes the loose terminals to generate heat and develop poor continuity. Continued use may result in the headlamps failing to illuminate.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the engine stop switch assembly with a conforming unit and replace the turn signal switch assembly with a new unit.

状況
前照灯への電源供給用配線（エンジンストップスイッチアッセンブリ）の製造方法が不適切なため、前照灯ケース内配線端子接続部の接続にゆるいものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、走行時の振動により端子接続部が発熱して導通不良を起こし、前照灯が点灯しなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、エンジンストップスイッチアッセンブリを良品と交換するとともに、ウインカースイッチアッセンブリを新品と交換する。
