Honda recalls Civic, Insight vehicles
http://www.dailybulletin.com/Stories/0,1413,203~21482~1992026,00.html#

Honda Motor Co. is recalling 440,000 Civic and Insight cars because their low-beam headlights can fail without warning, the company said Tuesday.

No injuries have resulted from the defect, Honda spokesman Andy Boyd said. The recall involves 2001-2002 model year Civics and 2000-2002 model year Insights.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which also announced the recall, the headlights' wire harness can overheat and cause the low-beam headlights to fail. Boyd said drivers could still use their high-beam headlights in all cases.

Honda will begin notifying owners this month about the recall. Dealers will perform free repairs on the vehicles whether or not they show any heat damage.

1. Not LBN... locking
Eventually, we'll have an Automotive Recall Forum, but at present, this post really doesn't qualify for posting in the Latest Breaking News Forum.

Feel free to repost this in the DU Lounge, for interested parties.

:D
