Buying a used 2023 Acura TLX? Check these 3 recalls first
Three recalls apply: a critical fuel tank weld that can leak gasoline, a brake pedal that can shift out of position, and a seat sensor that may cause unintended airbag deployment — the same items seen on 2021 and 2022 cars. Only 10 unverified complaints have been filed with NHTSA, with no crashes, fires or injuries reported and no single area standing out. The low count partly reflects how recently these cars were sold.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Ask the seller for recall paperwork on the fuel tank weld repair.
- Confirm the brake pedal recall was completed and check pedal position and travel.
- Verify the seat sensor recall status and that no airbag warning light is showing.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Acura dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
