Honda Canada has informed thousands of its Honda and Acura customers
that some of their personal information was stolen when its systems
were hacked.

The company said the information accessed was related to a program in
2009 that encouraged customers to register at the myHonda website.

In an alert posted on its website, Honda said details such as customer
names, addresses, vehicle identification numbers and in some cases
Honda Financial Services account numbers were accessed.
