STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST:HOSE, PIPING, AND CONNECTIONS

Manufacturer
HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.)
What Happened
The power steering hose is a part that carries fluid to your Acura's power steering system. Over time, high temperatures in the engine compartment can weaken this hose, causing it to crack and leak.
Risk if Unfixed
If the hose cracks, power steering fluid can leak onto the hot catalytic converter, causing smoke and potentially leading to an under-hood fire.
Free Fix
Your Acura dealer will replace the faulty power steering hose with a new, heat-resistant one at no cost to you. You'll get a notification when the parts are available, and you should schedule the repair as soon as possible.

Original — What Happened
Honda is recalling certain model year 2007 and 2008 Acura TL and model year 2003-2007 Accord V6 vehicles. In May 2012, Honda filed a defect report to recall certain model year 2007 and 2008 Acura TL vehicles. In September 2012, Honda informed the agency that it was including an additional 573,147 vehicles including certain model year 2003 through 2007 Accord V6 vehicles. The total number of vehicles being recalled is now 625,762. Prolonged under-hood and power steering fluid temperatures may cause the power steering hose to deteriorate prematurely, resulting in cracks and power steering fluid leakage.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
If this occurs, power steering fluid can leak onto a hot catalytic converter, leading to smoke and possibly an under-hood fire.
Original — Remedy
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will install a new heat resistant power steering hose, free of charge. The original recall began in June 2012, and owners of those vehicles may obtain the free remedy. Sufficient parts are not yet available for owners of the vehicles covered by the September 2012 expansion, but are expected to be available in early 2013. Honda will notify owners of these vehicles beginning on October 26, 2012, and will notify these owners again when parts are available so those vehicles can be brought to dealers for applications of the free remedy. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-800-999-1009.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM)

Manufacturer
HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.)
What Happened
The transmission control module in your vehicle helps your automatic transmission shift gears. It's the computer that tells your transmission what to do. In some 2005-2010 Honda models, this module may not work correctly due to a faulty outer race in the secondary shaft bearing.
Risk if Unfixed
If the transmission control module fails, your engine could stall while driving, which could cause a crash or injury. Additionally, broken pieces of the outer race or ball bearing may get stuck in the parking pawl, allowing your vehicle to roll away even if you've put the gear selector in park.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will update the transmission control module software to fix the problem, and it's free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you receive the recall notice.
