What is being recalled
American Honda Motor Company (Honda) is recalling certain model year 2014 Acura RLX vehicles manufactured August 7, 2012, through November 5, 2013. The bolts that attach the rear lower control arms to the sub-frame of the vehicle may have loosened during transport to dealerships.
Why it is dangerous
Loose rear lower control arm bolts may reduce steering ability, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear suspension lower control arm bolts, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in early January 2014. Customers may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009. Honda's number for this recall is JD0.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 13V-622 when calling a dealer.
