294,000-Plus Hondas, Acuras Recalled for Engine Stall Issue

Affected vehicles include model-year 2021-25 Acura TLX Type S sedans and model-year 2022-25 MDX Type S SUVs, as well as model-year 2023-25 Pilot SUVs. The fuel injection ECU settings may have been improperly programmed, causing sudden changes in the throttle that could illuminate the check-engine light and cause a loss of drive power or stall; this can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
As a fix, dealers will reprogram the fuel injection ECU software for free. Honda will begin notifying owners March 17. Those with further questions can contact the automaker at 888-234-2138 (Honda’s numbers for this recall are EL1 and AL0), call the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s vehicle-safety hotline at 888-327-4236 or visit its website to check your vehicle identification number and learn more.
