DETROIT -- Honda is recalling nearly 30,000 vehicles in Canada as part of a broader recall in North America to fix a faulty power steering hose that can leak fluid and cause a fire.

The recall affects 600,000 Accord midsize cars in the U.S. and Canada with V-6 engines from the 2003 through 2007 model years.

Honda has a report of one fire but no injuries or crashes.

According to Transport Canada, roughly 30,000 cars in Canada are affected by the safety notice.

Honda will replace the hoses for free, but it won't have the parts until early next year. Any owner who suspects a leak should take their car to a dealer for inspection.
