Honda is recalling certain Honda and Acura vehicles, including the Accord, Civic, CR-V, Odyssey, Pilot, Ridgeline, HR-V, Fit, Insight, Passport and the Acura TLX, RDX and MDX. The sensor that measures the weight of the person in the front passenger seat can crack and short circuit. If that happens, the airbags can go off when they should not during a crash. Dealers will replace the seat weight sensors at no cost. This recall expands an earlier recall.
Honda is recalling certain Acura RDX vehicles because the software that controls the electric power steering assist may not be calibrated properly. If this happens, the steering system can enter a failsafe mode, resulting in a loss of power steering assist while driving. Dealers will reprogram the electric power steering software so it is calibrated correctly, and this repair will be done free of charge.

On some Acura RDX and Honda Odyssey vehicles, the steering gear box may not have been tightened properly. This can let water get inside, causing corrosion and the gears to bind. Corroded, binding gears can make the steering harder to control.

Reported Jun 15, 2023 · Campaign 23V430000 · Model years: 2023
On some Acura Integra, Acura RDX, and Honda Accord vehicles, a valve inside the brake system may leak brake fluid. This can cause the vehicle to move on its own when the brake hold feature is on, or make the brake pedal feel like it needs to be pushed further down than normal.

Certain Honda and Acura vehicles, including the CR-V, Accord, Accord Hybrid, Odyssey, Insight, and RDX, may have a manufacturing problem with the front seat belts. The buckle's channel may interfere with the release button, which can prevent the seat belt buckle from latching properly. This means the seat belt may not click into place and hold securely the way it is supposed to for the driver or front passenger seat.
Reported Dec 2, 2021 · Campaign 21V939000 · Model years: 2021
Honda is recalling certain Acura RDX and CR-V Hybrid vehicles because a part in the front driveshaft, on the right or left side, may not have been heat-treated correctly during manufacturing. If that part fails, it can cause a sudden loss of drive power to the wheels, or let the vehicle roll away on its own if parked without the parking brake applied. Either situation can increase the risk of a crash or injury.

Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.
NHTSA lists 10 safety recalls covering the 2018–2025 Acura RDX. 10 of them are rated high or critical on this site. The most recent is "Honda and Acura front passenger airbags may deploy unintentionally" (NHTSA campaign 26V332000), reported May 21, 2026.
Which Acura RDX model year has the most recalls?
The 2019 Acura RDX has the most, with 5 recalls. The 2018 model year has the fewest of the years we cover, with 1. Newer model years have had less time to collect recalls, so a low count on a recent year is not a guarantee.
Is there a do-not-drive or park-outside recall on the Acura RDX?
No. None of the 10 Acura RDX recalls on file carries a do-not-drive or park-outside advisory from NHTSA.
How do I check whether my Acura RDX has an open recall?
Enter your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. A recall often applies to only some vehicles of a model year, and the VIN lookup shows the ones still unrepaired on your car. Recall repairs are free at any franchised Acura dealer, including for second owners.
