NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V121
Manufacturer HondaeBay logo (American HondaeBay logo Motor Co.)
Components ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Potential Number of Units Affected 137

 

Connecting Rod Bolts may be Improperly Torqued

Loss of engine power may result in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash. If the engine leaks oil in the proximity of hot engine or exhaust components, there is an increased risk of a fire.

 

Summary

American HondaeBay logo Motor Co. (HondaeBay logo) is recalling certain model year 2014 Accord L4 vehicles manufactured July 29, 2014, to July 31, 2014, 2015 Accord L4 vehicles manufactured August 14, 2014, to January 30, 2015, and 2015 CR-V vehicles manufactured September 9, 2014, to February 6, 2015.

The affected vehicles may have been assembled with improperly torqued connecting rod bolts, which can cause the engine to lose power or leak oil.

 

Remedy

HondaeBay logo will notify owners, and dealers will replace the engine short block, free of charge.

The recall began on March 27, 2015.

Owners may contact HondaeBay logo customer service at 1-888-234-2138.

HondaeBay logo’s number for this recall is JP2 (for Accord models) and JP3 (for CR-V models).

 

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

REVISION SUMMARY

Under PARTS INFORMATION, a part number was added to the Accord L4 and CR-V parts list.

 

BACKGROUND

During assembly of the short block, some connecting rod bolts may not have been properly torqued. If a connecting rod bolt was not torqued properly, the engine may rattle/knock, leak oil, or lose power, increasing the risk of a crash.

 

CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION

Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this campaign.

Do an iN VIN status inquiry to make sure the vehicle is shown as eligible.

Some vehicles affected by this campaign may be in your new and used vehicle inventory. These vehicles must be repaired before they are sold.

Should a dealership sell an unrepaired vehicle that subsequently causes an injury or damage because of the recalled item, the dealership will be solely responsible to the damaged party, and will be required to defend and indemnify American HondaeBay logo for any resulting claims. To see if a vehicle in inventory is affected by this campaign, do a VIN status inquiry before selling it.

 

CORRECTIVE ACTION

Replace the short block.
