NHTSA Complaint #545808 — 1997 HONDA ACCORD

CONSUMER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN OCTOBER OF 1998 AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS NOT RECALLED. HOWEVER, CONSUMER RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE (98V-231) ON MAY OF 1999 AND CALLED THE 800 NUMBER ON THE RECALL AND WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE WAS RECALLED. THE RECALL WAS FOR A WIRE HARNESS THAT COULD SHORT CIRCUIT, AND CAUSE POSSIBLE FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. POSSIBLE INJURIES MAY HAVE OCCURED DUE TO FALSE INFORMATION FROM DEALER. *YC
