2014 ACURA RLX Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2014 Acura RLX has 7 recalls, the most serious being loose rear lower control arm bolts that can cause the driver to lose steering control. The automatic emergency braking system can misread metal roadside barriers, such as guardrails or fences, as obstacles and apply hard braking unexpectedly, which can cause a following vehicle to strike the RLX from behind. On the safety equipment side, the driver and front passenger seatbelts can fail to extend or retract in cold temperatures, leaving occupants improperly restrained in a crash. There are also two headlight concerns: the reflective coating inside the headlight housing can peel away and reduce light output, and on some vehicles an incorrect wiring harness was installed on the right headlight, which may also affect how well it illuminates the road.
