Please stop spreading false information.
The only Hondas this applies to are the 2003 and 2004 Honda CRV's. And of the hundreds of thousands sold, only 20+ fires have resulted (which I know is 20+ too many). And the fires result when someone (typically an American mechanic ) changes the filter and either doesn't tighten it fully, doesn't lubricate the new gasket or leaves part of the old gasket in place

Now back to Country Coaching ... please.
