Affected vehicles include model-year 2018-20 Honda Fits and 2019-22 Honda HR-Vs. A design flaw in the audio display power circuit may result in the rearview camera image not displaying when the engine is started with a key. This can reduce driver visibility and increase the risk of a crash.
To remedy this, dealers will update the display audio unit software for free. Honda will notify vehicle owners July 8, but those with further questions in the meantime can contact the automaker at 888-234-2138 (Honda’s number for this recall are TIQ and DIR), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236, or visit its website to check your vehicle identification number and learn more.
