2015 ACURA RLX Recalls Canada & USA

2015 ACURA RLX Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2015 Acura RLX has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the automatic emergency braking system, which can misread metal guardrails or roadside fences as obstacles and apply full braking force unexpectedly, raising the risk of a crash. In cold temperatures, the driver and front passenger seatbelts can fail to extend or retract properly, which means a belt may not be available or may not position correctly in a crash. There is also a headlight concern: a reflective film inside the headlight housing can delaminate and reduce light output, cutting visibility at night or in poor conditions.
