Owners of 2004-2008 Acura TSX sedans in Canada need to be aware of a recall on 16,990 units.
On certain vehicles operated in areas where road salt and de-icing chemicals are used, if the driver enters the vehicle with a salt/snow mixture on their feet, this could melt and soak the carpet, allowing the salt-water solution to contact the base of the Engine Control Unit (ECU). As a result, the ECU could suffer corrosion damage, which may cause the engine to stall.
Acura dealers will install a waterproof cover over the ECU. Any damaged ECU will be replaced.
