Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Honda is recalling certain 2004-2008 Acura TSX vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia. In these states that use corrosive deicing materials, moisture and salt brought into the vehicle on drivers' footwear can saturate the carpeting, which contacts the engine's Electronic Control Unit (ECU). This may cause rust or corrosion to the ECU case and potentially result in engine stall, which increases crash risk.
Honda will notify owners of the recall. Acura dealers will inspect vehicles at no charge and replace any damaged ECU free of charge. All vehicles will have a waterproof cover installed on the ECU at no charge. The recall began in April 2013. Affected owners should contact Acura Client Relations at 1-800-382-2238 and select option 4, or visit www.recalls.acura.com.
