I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 ACURA TSX ON ROUTE 29 IN GAINESVILLE VA, IT IS A MAJOR 4 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY. WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A SIDE STREET, THE CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SOUTHBOUND LANES. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE ENGINE WITH NO LUCK, THE LIGHTS IN THE CAR REMAINED ON, BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. THE CAR IS BLACK AND THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED AT 5:30 AM. I HAD TO GRAB MY NEWBORN INFANT FROM THE BACK SEAT AND RUN FROM THE CAR BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT START AND CARS WERE TRAVELING 60 MPH IN THE SOUTHBOUND LANE HEADED DIRECTLY FOR MY CAR, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *JB

THE ACTUAL CAPACITY OF THE FUEL TANK ON A 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY MAY NOT BE THE SAME AS STATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL: THE OWNERS MANUAL OF A 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY STATED 20 GAL TANK CAPACITY. BUT DURING MY FIRST WEEK OF DRIVING THIS 2004 ODYSSEY - THE LOW FUEL LIGHT INDICATOR LIT UP AT 194 MILES AFTER DRIVING AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I RE-FUELED THE VEHICLE WITH A TOTAL OF 15.43 GAL WILL PUT THE TANK METER TO FULL. QUESTION: DOES THE LOW FUEL INDICATOR LIGHT COME ON WHEN THERE IS ABOUT 4.53 GAL OF GAS STILL IN THE TANK. OR IT THE TANK CAPACITY IS LESS THAN WHAT HONDA STATED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. *LA

In states that use corrosive materials for deicing, driver's footwear may bring in materials that saturate the vehicle's carpeting, which is in contact with the vehicle's engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU). As a result, the ECU case may experience rust or corrosion. This damage may potentially cause the engine to stall.

Remedy: Honda will notify owners and Acura dealers will inspect the vehicle and replace any damaged ECU, free of charge.
