Safety Recall: DC-DC Output Cable Cover and Software Update - Mar 2007
Here is what my recall letter says from Honda Canada- (posting to keep a complete record of the issue). My VIN is JHMFA36206S801363.
Certain parts of your vehicle's integrated motor assist (IMA) system are located under a metal cover behind the rear seat-back. Over time, the weight of rear seat passengers may cause the metal cover to come into contact with a rubber cap covering an electrical terminal. The rubber cap may get pinched, exposing the electrical terminal. The exposed terminal, should it come into contact wih the metal cover, could result in an electrical short that may blow the IMA fuse. A blown fuse will cause the engine to stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
In addition, based on the actual date your vehical was manuafactured, the software in your vehicle may be required to be updated to improve the cold weather performance of the Linear Air Fuel sensor on the catalytic converter - your dealer can check to see if ths update does apply to your vehicle.
