Honda announced it is recalling600,000 Accords in the U.S. and Canada to fix a faulty power steering hose that can leak fluid and cause a fire. The recall affects 2003 – 2007 model year Accords with V6 engines. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration posted on its website that the Accord’s power steering hose can deteriorate with prolonged exposure to engine heat. The hoses can then crack and leak, possibly causing a fire or loss of power-assisted steering. Honda will replace the hoses for free, but it will not have the parts available until early next year. A Honda spokes man stated that any owner who suspects a leak should take their car to a dealer for inspection.
