Description of the Defect : A capacitor in the printed circuit board of the front passenger seat weight sensor may crack and lead to an internal short circuit from the exposure to environmental humidity.

Description of the Safety Risk : In the event of a crash, the front passenger frontal and knee airbags may
deploy despite the presence of an occupant (infant in child seat, child, or person smaller than AF5) for whom deployment should be suppressed, increasing the risk of injury.
Description of the Cause : Due to a natural disaster at the manufacturing plant of a tier-2 supplier, the tier-1 supplier temporarily changed the base material in the printed circuit board of the seat weight sensor, which was not sufficiently verified for its intended use. The alternative base material could allow additional strain to the printed circuit board that can lead to a capacitor cracking and an internal short circuit. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : The SRS warning light may be illuminated and the passenger airbag indicator may remain off.

Re: Stop Sale/Safety Recall: 2020-22M Multi-Model Seat Weight Sensor Failure
On February 1, 2024, Acura notified NHTSA of a stop sale and safety recall for certain model year 2020 and 2022 MDX, 2020-2022 RDX, and 2020-2021 TLX vehicles
that may have damage to the seat weight sensor in the front passenger seat. Damaged seat weight sensors may cause improper deployment of the front passenger
airbags during a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Refer to your eResponsibility report or perform an iN VIN status inquiry to determine which units in your
inventory are affected.
Failure to repair a vehicle as necessary prior to sale or before returning the vehicle to a client may subject your dealership to claims or lawsuits.
BACKGROUND
During the manufacturing process, seat weight sensors may not have been built to proper specifications. Improperly built sensors could lead to cracking and/or a short
circuit of the sensor resulting in the illumination of the SRS warning light and the passenger airbag indicator remaining OFF.
REPAIR
Replacement of seat frame or seat rail assemblies with non-defective seat weight sensors.
PARTS
Part availability is currently limited, we are actively working to increase production outputs. More information concerning parts availability will be shared as it becomes
available.
TOOLS
There are no special tools required for this recall.
SERVICE BULLETINS
A stop sale only placeholder Service Bulletin 24-021, Safety Recall: 2020–22 Multi-Model Seat Weight Sensor Stop Sale has posted to the Service Information System
(SIS) as of February 6, 2024. A revised bulletin including repair, parts, tools, and warranty claim information, will be posted to the SIS at a later date.
CLIENT NOTIFICATION
Acura expects to begin initial client notification in mid-March 2024.
As always, perform an iN VIN status inquiry for all vehicles passing through your dealership to determine eligibility for any open campaigns.

Safety Recall Information (For Customer)
Safety Recall: 2020–22 Multi-Model Seat Weight Sensor
BACKGROUND
On February 1, 2024, Acura notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of a safety recall for the
models listed in the table below.
Year Model Trim
2020 MDX ALL
2022 MDX ALL
2020–22 RDX ALL
2020–21 TLX ALL
Affected vehicles may be equipped with seat weight sensors not built to proper specifications. Improperly built sensors
could lead to cracking and/or a short circuit of the sensor resulting in the illumination of the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) warning light and the passenger airbag indicator remaining OFF. In certain collisions, these seat weight sensors may
cause improper deployment of the front passenger airbag, increasing the risk of injury. At risk passengers are
babies/infants in car seats, children using booster seats, children under the age of 13, and very small statured adults.
Consistent with recommendations from NHTSA and in your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual, these passengers should not sit in
the front passenger seat.
REMEDY

follow-up letter and repair your vehicle, FREE OF CHARGE.
CLIENT NOTIFICATION
Acura expects to begin initial customer notification in mid-March 2024.

BACKGROUND
On February 1, 2024, American Honda notified NHTSA of a STOP SALE and safety recall for the models listed in the
AFFECTED VEHICLE table above.
Affected vehicles may be equipped with seat weight sensors not built to proper specifications. Improperly built sensors could
lead to cracking and/or a short circuit of the sensor resulting in the illumination of the SRS warning indicator. In certain
collisions, these seat weight sensors may cause improper deployment of the front passenger airbag, increasing the risk of
injury.
ACTION
Check the iN VIN status for eligibility. If this Campaign Notice appears on a VIN status inquiry, the vehicle is subject to a
safety recall. Any affected vehicles in your dealer inventory are on STOP SALE under certain conditions. See the USED CAR
INVENTORY section for additional information.
For vehicles in for regular service and repairs, see the CUSTOMERS IN FOR SERVICE section for additional information.

NEW VEHICLE INVENTORY
According to the Service Operations Manual (SOM) section 7.2.4, Vehicles on Dealer Inventory, federal law prohibits a
dealership from selling or leasing a new vehicle that is subject to a safety or emissions recall without first completing the
recall procedure outlined in the applicable service bulletin. Failure to complete a safety or emissions recall prior to the sale or
lease of a new vehicle to a customer may subject a dealership to a fine under federal law and/or claims or lawsuits from the
customer or anyone else harmed as a result of such failure.
Honda does not expect any new, unsold units in dealer inventory.

sensors may cause improper deployment of the front passenger airbag, increasing the risk of injury. At risk passengers
are babies/infants in car seats, children using booster seats, children under the age of 13, and very small statured
adults. Consistent with recommendations from NHTSA and in your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual, these passengers should
not sit in the front passenger seat.
