The recall effects CR-V and Piolt models built between 2002 and 2004.

According to a report from Honda, the issue comes from the low beam headlights, which were not given enough slack in the wiring leading to the headlight switch. As a result of this, wires can work their way loose and short out the low-beam lights.
