The suspected attack comes less than a month after Honda reopened its North American vehicle assembly plants, following closure of factories in late March to comply with coronavirus-related, shelter-at-home rules in the United States and Canada. “It appears that our customers’ personal information has not been affected,” the spokesman said by telephone, but declined to comment on any production impact.
