Honda FIT and HR-V: Defect in the audio display and rear-view camera

02/03/2023

Worldwide, 138,478 Honda FIT and HR-V (pictured) vehicles manufactured between 2017 and 2022 will have to go back to the workshop. The reason for the measure is that the audio display does not boot up, and thus the rear-view camera can no longer transmit images. In Germany, 21 vehicles are affected.

A software update is carried out in the workshop. The KBA is monitoring the recall under the reference number “012551”, and the internal code is “6DW”.
