Honda recalls 2002-2006 CR-V for fire risk

DETROIT (AP) — Honda Motor Co. is recalling CR-V crossovers from the 2002 to 2006 model years because an electrical switch in the driver's side door could melt and cause a fire.

Honda and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced the recall Saturday.

The government agency said owners should park CR-Vs from those model years outside until the recall is performed, to avoid any property damage from a fire. A fire could start even when the ignition is off and the CR-V is parked.
