Japanese automaker Honda has confirmed the recall of 1.3 million copies of its Fit model has assembled the Suzuka factory in Japan.

The recall affects models produced in 2007 and 2008.

It is due to a defect in the power supply system of lighthouses. Which would consequence that they could turn off without warning ... Here it is a reminder that affects all Honda Fit year indicated above, and sold around the world. Which means:

735,000 cars sold in Japan

385,000 cars sold in Europe under the name Jazz

143,000 cars sold in the United States
