The recall, announced Wednesday, impacts 2023-2025 Honda Pilots, 2022-2025 Acura MDX Type S and the 2021-2025 Acura TLX Type S. In total, 294,612 vehicles have been impacted.
“American Honda will voluntarily recall about 295,000 Honda and Acura vehicles in the U.S. to update the fuel injection electronic control unit (FI-ECU) software,” the company said in a statement.
The issue stems from the “incorrect programming” of the fuel injection electronic control unit. This can cause engines to lose drive power, hesitate or stall, “increasing the risk of a crash or injury,” the statement reads. The issue may also cause the check engine light to pop on.

There have been no reported crashes or injuries due to the error, the company said.
The company identified the error by “monitoring telematics information.”
Now, they say the software must be updated.
Registered owners will receive a notice of the recall via mail in March, and can take their cars to an authorized Honda or Acura dealer for a free software update.
“American Honda is announcing this recall to encourage owners of affected vehicles to take them to an authorized dealer for repair as soon as they receive notification,” the company said in a statement.
Owners can determine if their vehicle qualifies for the update by visiting the Honda recall website, the Acura recall website, or by calling (888)-234-2138.
This comes after Ford recalled 270,000 vehicles last week over reported battery failures that have impacted several functions, including the steering and hazard lights.
The models impacted include the 2021-2023 Bronco Sport SUVs and 2022-2023 Maverick trucks. Dealers will inspect and replace the battery if needed, free of charge.
