Honda has already extended the warranty to vehicles affected by the problem in 2021. The automaker said, via a document filed with NHTSA, that it had received 273,870 warranty claims related to the problem between May 2017 and June 2023. We can see that the problem is not just anecdotal and can affect many vehicles. Honda states that there have been no reports of injuries or deaths related to this situation.
Remember that this type of recall is mandatory, as a vehicle that does not display the image captured by the rearview camera no longer meets the safety standards set in both the United States and Canada. As for the repair, dealers will install a better-quality wiring harness between the display system and the vehicle's terminal connections. A protective cover will also be fitted to the vehicle's cable connector.
