A bad coaxial cable is leading to a major recall of 2018 to 2023 Honda Odysseys, Pilots, and Passports. As a result of the production error, the automaker must now recall 1,198,280 vehicles in the U.S. over the loss of the backup camera feed.

Specifically, the fault lies with the Media Oriented Systems Transport communication coaxial cable, which Honda says was improperly designed and manufactured, in documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
