Liquid can accumulate in a gap in the Power Window Master Switch (PWMS) case.

As a result, a short circuit could occur that can generate heat and cause the PWMS and adjacent parts to overheat, increasing the risk of fire.

The Honda CR-V models affected by this recall were manufactured between 7 November 2001 and 6 October 2006.
