Acura RDX

Issue:
On certain vehicles, a software problem in the motor control unit could cause the electronic power steering (EPS) system to enter a failsafe mode. If this happens, there could be a sudden increase in steering effort.  
Note: This problem would cause the EPS warning indicator to turn on. 
 
Safety Risk: 
A sudden increase in steering effort could increase the risk of a crash.  
 
Corrective Actions: 
Acura will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the motor control unit software.

Issue: 
This recall is for low-pressure fuel pumps installed on certain vehicles or sold at dealerships as a replacement part. 

On certain vehicles, the low-pressure fuel pump could fail. If this happens, the engine may run rough or may not start and the check engine light may turn on. This could also result in a sudden loss of engine power while driving. 
Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2023-679. Vehicles that were repaired under that recall don't require this repair. 

Safety Risk: 
A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
The company will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the fuel pump motor.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the weight sensor for the front passenger seat may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the passenger-front airbag and knee airbag could deploy in a crash that doesn't require them to. 
Note: If the weight sensor fails, the SRS warning light would turn on in the instrument panel. 

Safety Risk: 
An airbag system that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash. 

Corrective Actions: 
Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership for an inspection if the SRS warning light is on. If the SRS warning light is on due to a faulty weight sensor, the weight sensor will be replaced. When repair parts are available, Honda will send you a second letter. They will advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the passenger-front seat weight sensor.
