The defect stems from improper settings in the correction control logic for air flow rate and fuel injection volume, which could result in a torque control failure under certain driving conditions. The issue was traced to the supplier, Denso International America, Inc., which notified Honda of a potential onboard diagnostics problem in April 2024. Honda later identified engine stalling as a risk and determined the defect warranted a recall.
Honda has received 674 warranty claims related to this issue but has not reported any injuries or crashes. The automaker will notify affected owners beginning March 17, 2025, instructing them to visit an authorized Honda or Acura dealer for a free software update to correct the FI-ECU settings. Owners who previously paid for related repairs may be eligible for reimbursement.
