Honda loose battery terminal connections or a degraded battery may cause the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) to unexpectedly reboot.
The short version
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) reported a problem with the electrical system 12v/24v/48v battery. Here is what owners need to know.
Loose battery terminal connections or a degraded battery may cause the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) to unexpectedly reboot. Upon rebooting, the TCU may shift the transmission to the "Park" position, possibly damaging the parking rod.
A damaged parking rod can allow the vehicle to roll when parked, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will ensure the battery terminal connections are secure and will update the TCU software, free of charge.
