Honda recalls nearly 1.2M U.S. vehicles due to possible rear camera image issues

DETROIT –

Honda is recalling practically 1.2 million autos within the U.S. as a result of the rear view digital camera picture could not seem on the dashboard display screen.

The recall covers sure Odyssey minivans from 2018 to 2023, in addition to Pilot SUVs from 2019 to 2022 and Passport SUVs from 2019 to 2023.

Honda says in paperwork posted Friday by U.S. security regulators that the issue was traced to a defective coaxial cable connector. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says if the rear view digital camera picture does not show, it will probably reduce driver visibility and enhance the chance of a crash.

The firm says it acquired practically 274,000 guarantee claims from May of 2017 by June 8. It has no experiences of any accidents.

Dealers will change a cable harness and set up a straightening cowl for gratis to house owners, who will probably be notified by letter beginning July 24.
