Safety Recall: 2019-22 HR-V Audio Unit Improved Software Update

 

AFFECTED VEHICLES

Year Model Trim Level VIN Range
2019–22HR-V (2WD and AWD with key ignition switch ONLY)SportCheck the iN VIN status inquiry for eligibility.

 

BACKGROUND

Due to an improper hardware circuit configuration, if the battery state of charge drops below 9 volts during cranking this may cause logic and/or timing mismatch in the display audio unit resulting in a blank display condition. In certain situations, the rearview camera may not display when shifting to reverse, increasing the risk of a back-up collision or injury. This is noncompliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

NOTE: Some vehicles in this action may have been repaired using the previous software from Service Bulletin 23-004 Safety Recall: 2019–22 HR-V Audio Unit Software Update. This repair is required to fix a possible concern with the rearview camera. All units in this campaign must receive the improved software.

CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION

Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this safety recall. Do an iN VIN status inquiry to verify eligibility.

Some vehicles affected by this campaign may be in your new or used vehicle inventory.

Failure to repair a vehicle subject to a recall or campaign may subject your dealership to claims or lawsuits from the customer or anyone else harmed as a result of such failure. To see if a vehicle in inventory is affected by this safety recall, do a VIN status inquiry before selling it.

Update the audio unit system with the latest software.
