Honda announced Monday that it would recall about 960,000 vehicles globally for problems with the window switches and hybrid powertrains.
In the U.S., the affected models are primarily the CR-V and CR-Z hybrid. For the CR-V crossover, 80,111 units from model year 2006 are affected by a problem that leads to residue from cleaners building up on the power-window master switch, damaging the electrical contacts and possibly leading to a fire.
