A problem relating to suspension has been identified in certain 2014 Acura RLX full size luxury sedans manufactured between August 7, 2012 to November 5, 2013. Honda will be notifying customers to take their vehicles to their manufacturer approved repair facility to have the rear suspension lower control arm bolts replaced. Honda’s recall number is JD0 and the NHTSA Campaign Number is 13V-622.

According to reports filed with the NHTSA, during assembly, an impact gun was used to fasten the rear lower control arms to the vehicle sub-frame. While the impact gun achieved the required torque specification, the axial tension of the bolts may be insufficient. The bolts could loosen during transport, making it difficult for the driver to maintain steering control and increasing the risk of an accident.
