Recalling II - USA - 25,000 Civics Honda's
WASHINGTON,DC,USA -AP, by KEN THOMAS -10 Nov 2005: -- Honda Motor Co. recalled about 25,000 Civics on Thursday because the accelerator pedal was improperly installed on some 2006 models, which could cause a crash.If the pedal is improperly installed, it could come loose, cause the throttle to stick and raise the potential for a crash... Honda spokesman Sage Marie said there have been no crashes or injuries linked to the issue in the popular-selling vehicle... The company sold 257,749 Civics in the first nine months of this year, down 1.2 percent from 262,958 sold last year. Honda did not immediately have a breakdown of how many 2006 models have been sold thus far... The redesign includes a new floor-mounted gas assembly that involves the accelerator. The sedans under recall were manufactured from early June through early October, and countermeasures have been put in place on the assembly line to fix the problem, Marie said...
