Product Update:
Accord Hatchback Rear Window Defogger (Supersedes Bulletin 84-028 dated OCT 1, '84)
Problem
Deterioration of the defogger buss bar causes hot spots on the hatchback glass which may result in the glass breaking.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Install a new buss bar on each side of the rear window glass as shown on pages 2 and 3. If the window has been replaced, inspect the buss bars to make
sure the window is the updated type: When viewed from the outside, the buss bars of the old style window are covered by the window weatherstripping;
on the updated window, the buss bars are inboard of the weatherstripping and are completely visible.
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
All owners of affected cars which have not yet been updated will be notified by mail. Owners will again be asked to contact their nearest Honda dealer
for installation of the new buss bars.
