The investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is focused on potential engine failures, specifically connecting rod bearing issues, across 1.4 million Honda and Acura vehicles.
Complaints indicate that around 173 vehicle owners reported connecting rod bearing failures despite their models not being included in the 2023 recall, raising concerns about unaddressed safety issues.
Honda recalled approximately 250,000 vehicles in late 2023 over the same engine failure issue, though the company had logged around 1,450 warranty claims regarding these bearings without any reported injuries.
The NHTSA's opening of a recall query emphasizes the ongoing concerns surrounding the durability of the 3.5-liter V6 engines and the necessity for thorough investigations to ensure driver safety.
