Details
What's wrong: The affected vehicles may experience damage to the wires inside the plug top ignition coils (ptc) due to improper protection against electrical noise.
Why it matters: If the wires become damaged, the coil may overheat and cause the engine to stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the plug top ignition coils with new design, free of charge. The recall began on October 9, 2015.
