Honda is making a HUGE recall of its Accord in the U.S. because of a defective power steering hose.
The hose can apparently leak fluid and catch fire!
The recall is for all Accords between 2003 and 2007 model years that have a V6 engine.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said that the hoses can deteriorate prematurely, cracking and causing leaks.
There was only one fire reported so far and thankfully, no one was injured.
Honda recommends that any owner who suspects there might be a leak should take their car to a dealer.
So, do you or someone you know own an Accord?
Then have your car checked out or risk a fire!!
