235 recalls across 25 models
Acura has 25 models with recall activity in our database, spanning 1987 through 2026. Across those models, 235 recall campaigns are recorded, and the breakdown skews heavily toward the upper tiers of the severity rating system: 60% of campaigns fall into the Critical tier and another 28% into High, meaning that together, 88% of all Acura recalls involve consequences such as loss of vehicle control, fire risk, or serious injury potential. Only 10% land in the Medium tier, with just 2% in Low and none rated Informational.
The MDX leads the lineup by a wide margin with 51 recall campaigns, reflecting its long production run and broad market presence. The TL follows at 23 recalls, and the RL rounds out the top three at 19. Among the Critical recalls tied to the MDX is a 2014 campaign in which a loss of control could create the risk of a crash. Other models in the lineup, including the RDX, TSX, and ILX, each carry their own recall histories that contribute to the overall concentration of Critical and High activity across the brand. The full 25-model span stretches nearly four decades, from the earliest 1987 entries through the 2026 model year, capturing the breadth of the lineup from its introduction through current production.
