Honda is recalling 256,603 Accord hybrid vehicles in the United States over a software error that may cause a potential loss of drive power, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Tuesday.
Parts of the vehicle’s internal software may restart while driving, causing a potential loss of control, the NHTSA said.
Dealers will reprogram the software free of cost, the auto regulator added.
Earlier this month, the Japanese automaker also recalled 406,290 Civic vehicles over a manufacturing flaw that caused aluminum alloy wheels to detach.
