Honda will recall 294,612 vehicles in the U.S. to fix an
issue that may cause engines to stall or suffer a loss of
power, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
said on Wednesday.

The recall affects certain 2022-2025 Acura MDX Type-S,
2023-2025 Honda Pilot  and 21-2025 Acura TLX Type-S
vehicles.

A software error in the fuel injection electronic control
unit (FI-ECU) may cause an engine stall or a loss of power,
increasing the risk of a crash or injury, the U.S. auto
safety regulator said.

Dealers will reprogram the FI-ECU software, free of
charge, it added.

   "[2033] If X>100 Goto 2033" ?  :-)

   You'd think they'd have this stuff down and
   bullet-proof by now ....

   Remember carbs and distributors ?

   The software in a car "brain" these days is
   probably larger and more complex than for
   a Saturn probe. In short they'll NEVER get
   it debugged before moving to a whole new
   (buggy) system.
