Just after the slew of news coming that vehicles are being recalled and checked over for some faulty issues across the vehicle world and among vehicle manufacturers, yet another issue is coming up in the highly sensitive US automobile market. This time, the news are being referred to the Japanese automobile company Honda. If the reports from Reuters were to be based, Honda Motor Co Ltd is going to notify about 1, 200 owners of 2011 model year Honda CR-V and Honda Accord for possible engine oil leaks due to some manufacturing New Cars problem. The report says that Honda sent a notice to dealers that some 5, 000 units of the 2011 model year Accords and 4, 300 units of the 2011 model year CR-Vs on dealer lots should be inspected for the part that could lead to engine oil leaks. The report further said that the car manufacturer notified dealers of the potential problem in the 2011 model year Accords and CR-Vs through a service bulletin that was dated December 3. The customers will be notified of the problem in mid-December, the notice from Honda said. Furthermore, the report also reported that the vehicles in dealer's inventory must be in repair before they are sold. According to Honda, most of the vehicles will require only an inspection so that it will be determined which part was incorrect as mentioned in the report. It was also reported that the notice followed a separate notification that was dated November 24 in which Honda told the dealers that excess paint is seen as the possible cause of engine oil leaks by the cylinder head cover in 2006 to 2010 model year Accord, Civic Si, CR-V and Element. The repair for the separate issue is through sanding the paint away and this is going to be covered by the warranty. In the meantime, the Accord was sold since August. The CR-V was released in October. The report also said that automakers usually use a system of notices to dealers for repairs that are not in their judgment or those considered as safety issues. The problems require formal recall under the US auto safety rules. The move come at a time when Honda has seen a decline in their US market share despite the market recalls by rival Toyota Motor Corp.
