On this page you can check your Honda vehicle by VIN. There is no recall in my case.

But checking by the Honda vehicle gives a recall result.
We'll have to wait a bit.

Thanks for the heads-up. No recall needed on my Touring.

Something tells me the odds are fairly low that we have more than a couple on here with affected models. Even that might not be the case.

19 in total and of the 19, 100% are affected. Honda knows exactly which ones need to be repaired and between the CRV and the Accord there are only 19 vehicles. I’ll be shocked if any of the less than 19 accord owners are here.

...At least the system works. Even if only 19 units affected...

Only 19 transmissions maybe, but that's still a pretty big bill for AHM.

So far my Touring does not show up in the VIN lookup. However, it does fall between the production dates for the cars affected. Hopefully their VIN lookup is current. I’ll keep checking now and then.

19 sounds like errors made on a particular 8 hour shift at the plant.
