NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 99V282

Potential Number Of Units Affected: 101,159

Summary: On certain vehicles, an improperly routed under-dash wire harness could be damaged by contact with the brake light switch, possibly resulting in a blown fuse. If this occurs, operation of critical components can be lost, including windshield wipers, headlights, turn signal and hazard lamps, tail lamps, the anti-locking function of the brakes, and the battery charging system.

Remedy: Dealers will install a protective, corrugated plastic tube over the wire harness in the area of the brake stop switch. If any wire or wires are damaged, they will be repaired. Owner notification began during November 1999. Owners who do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009.

Dates of Manufacture: November 1997 - November 1998
