According to Reuters, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said potentially incorrect inflation rates in the driver’s side front air bag prompted Honda to recall 130,617 compact CR-V sport utility vehicles from the 2002-2004 model years.


Separately, it reportedly said Honda was recalling 19,572 Accord sedans because the dimmer control for their instrument panel lights can fail due to heat build-up.


If the condition occurs drivers of the Accords affected, from the 2000-2001 model years, may be unable to see instrument panel gauges, such as the speedometer, at night, Reuters added.
