Japanese automakers Honda and Nissan have announced plans to work to a merger, forming the world's third-largest automaker by sales as the industry undergoes changes in its move from fossil fuels.
Honda said there are no reports of injuries or deaths related to the issue. It is the second major recall this month at Honda, after 1.7 million vehicles were found to have potential steering issues.
The recall includes the Honda Civic, Accord, CR-V, Fit, HR-V, Insight, Odyssey, Pilot, Passport, Ridgeline, as well as Acura MDX, RDX and TLX, from model years between 2020 and 2022.
Honda Motor's American arm is recalling more than 2.5 million vehicles in the U.S. due to a fuel pump defect that can increase risks of engine failure or stalling while driving.
Heating pads behind the mirrors may not be bonded properly, which could lead to the mirror glass falling out. The recalled vehicles include recent-model Odysseys, Passports, Pilots and Ridgelines.
The recall covers top-selling models including the 2017 through 2020 CR-V, the 2018 and 2019 Accord, the 2018 through 2020 Odyssey and the 2019 Insight. It also includes the 2019 and 2020 Acura RDX.
