Replacement of affected parts will be carried out in all of Honda's 28 authorized dealers and 3 service centers nationwide, FREE of CHARGE and will take around 40 minutes to repair. Other CR-V's belonging to a different year model will not experience the same failure because a different headlight lighting circuit is installed.
