The two domestic production sites will return to normal capacity in the first half of December, Honda said in a statement.

Earlier this month, the maker of the Fit and CR-V models cut its full-year profit forecast for the second time, citing production delays and rising materials costs.

Top Japanese automaker Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM) Corp had also said last week it would start making up for lost production in December, with factories at home returning to normal for the first time in seven months.
