Free 75,000-150,000 mile inspection for certain 1995-1997 Honda vehicles.



I just received mail from my Honda dealer stating that I am eligible for a free emissions check and service: replace spark plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap and rotor, and change the oil and oil filter. Here's the bulk of the letter:

Background
In 1998, Honda entered into an agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The reason for this agreement was an assertion by the EPA and CARB that there is a technical problem with your Honda's On-board Diagnostic system(OBD) that causes it to not comply with the Federal Clean Air Act and California regulations. OBD is a required part of your vehicle's computer system that monitors the functions of the emissions control system.
