The hazard

Issue: On certain vehicles, the wiring for the accessory power outlet located near the third-row seat could get pinched. This could result in a short circuit, and cause overheating of the wiring harness. Safety Risk: Wiring that overheats could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the wire harness for the third-row seat accessory power outlet. If it is damaged, it will be replaced. If no damage is found, the wire harness will be wrapped with protective tape and re-routed.
