Acura TLX tires may have cuts from factory handling

NHTSA campaign 22V950000 · Reported 2022-12-22 · Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)

high How serious is it? About this label

A tire that loses air suddenly can cause a loss of control and a crash, so this is serious; the notice does not say to stop driving, but have the tires checked soon.

What's wrong, in plain English

The tires on some 2022 Acura TLX cars may have been cut or torn while they were being sorted at the factory. Damage like that can weaken a tire, and a weakened tire can suddenly lose air. A blowout at speed can pull the car sideways and make it hard to steer. Your dealer will look at the tires and replace any that are damaged at no charge to you.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your TLX is covered.
2. Contact your Acura dealer, or call Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138, and reference recall GCW.
3. Have the tires inspected and any damaged ones replaced — there is no cost to you.
