The U.S. government's highway safety agency is investigating as many as 1.4 million Honda and Acura vehicles after complaints that the engines could fail.
The probe by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration covers the 2016 through 2020 Honda Pilot and Acura MDX, as well as the 2018 through 2020 Honda Odyssey and Acura TLX. The 2017 through 2019 Honda Ridgeline is included in the probe too.
