Honda Recalls 820,000 Vehicles for Headlight Concerns

Honda has expanded a March 2012 low beam headlight recall to additionally
include approximately 820,000 model-year 2002-2003 Civic and model-year
2004-2005 Pilot vehicles in the United States. Honda dealers will inspect and,
if necessary, replace components of the headlight wiring system. There is a
potential failure with the wiring of the headlight switch which may cause
the low beam headlights to become inoperative. The loss of the low beam
headlights may increase the risk of a crash. No crashes or injuries have been
reported related to this issue.
