HONDA announced a problem with the CIVIC HYBRID affecting a total of 569 vehicles.
It has been established that when the rear seat is occupied, the deformation of the seat back may cause a brief interference between a protection plate, and an electrical connector. This can result in the main fuse blowing, causing the engine to cut out. Vehicles built from 9/1/2005 to 9/11/2005 are at risk.
Recalled vehicles will have an additional plastic cover placed over the subject electrical connector.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest HONDA dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
