NHTSA recall 15V417000
Equipment · Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
Details
What's wrong: American Honda motor Co. (Honda) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Acura MDX and MDX awd vehicles manufactured April 23, 2013, to December 16, 2014. The affected vehicles have air conditioning compressor clutch drive bolts that may not have received the proper anti-corrosion coating.
Why it matters: If a bolt was not coated, it may corrode and break as a result. If the bolt breaks, the compressor clutch plate may separate from the vehicle, possibly becoming a road hazard.
The fix: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the air conditioning compressor clutch drive bolt and install a new clutch plate if necessary, free of charge. The recall began on August 7, 2015.
