The 2005 Acura TL has two recalls, the more serious being a defective driver's airbag inflator that can explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a serious risk of injury or death.
The second recall involves a loose terminal in the main fuse box that can cut power to the fuel pump. If this happens while driving, the engine can stall without warning, which raises the risk of a crash.
