## What is wrong

Honda \(American Honda Motor Co.\) is recalling certain 2018\-2020 Fit and 2019\-2022 HR\-V vehicles.  The rearview camera image may not display when the engine is started with a key, due to a design error in the audio display power circuit.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility."


## What can happen

An inoperative rearview camera display can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will update the display audio unit software, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed March 13, 2023.  Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1\-888\-234\-2138. Honda's number for this recall is 6DW.  This recall has been superseded by NHTSA recall number 24V\-384.  Vehicles previously repaired under recall 23V\-046 will need to have the new remedy completed under recall 24V\-384.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
