2002 ACURA MDX Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2002 Acura MDX has 5 recalls, all centered on the same critical safety issue: both the driver and passenger frontal airbag inflators can explode during deployment, sending sharp metal fragments into the cabin and causing serious injury or death. These five recalls all address the Takata airbag inflator defect, covering both the driver and passenger sides. Some filings relate to inflators installed as replacement parts during earlier repairs, meaning vehicles that already had airbag work done may still be affected. Any deployment event, including a minor crash that triggers the airbags, can cause the inflator to rupture violently rather than inflate the bag normally. Because all five recalls point to the same physical hazard, owners should verify their specific vehicle's status by VIN, as not every filing applies to every build of this model.
