The recall of the CR-V sport utility vehicle is due to piston rods that could fracture.

BEIJING – Due to a problem with a component, Dongfeng Honda Automobile, a Chinese joint venture with Honda Motor Co. (IW 1000/29), will recall more than 400,000 cars in the world's largest auto market.

Dongfeng Honda Automobile will begin the recall of its CR-V sport utility vehicles in China on Friday, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said.

"In extreme circumstances, the piston rods may fracture," it added.

The CR-V model is one of the top 10 selling SUVs in China.
