The 2007 Acura RDX has 3 recalls, the most serious being a driver's frontal airbag inflator that can rupture during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a serious injury or death risk to the driver and other occupants.
The remaining recall involves a dealer-installed accessory trailer hitch that was not properly welded and can fail under load, allowing a towed trailer or unit to break free from the vehicle. This recall only affects vehicles where the accessory trailer hitch was dealer-installed.
