A software flaw has prompted Honda Motor Co. to call back 255,000 late-model cars in Asia, Europe and North America.

The recall targets 2018 model Accord sedans and 2019 Insight hybrid cars whose backup cameras may fail to display images when the vehicle is shifted into reverse.

Almost all of the affected vehicles are in the U.S., although some models are being recalled in Germany and South Korea. Dealers will reprogram the software.
