Torrance, CA – September 19, 2025 – Honda (NYSE:HMC), which owns the Acura brand, is recalling 17,334 2025 Acura RDX crossover SUVs whose steering wheel may become hard to turn. This makes maneuvering more difficult, augmenting the chances of a crash.
Recall summary
The affected vehicles feature electronic power steering (EPS) to reduce the effort required to turn the steering wheel.
Due to a calibration error, the EPS may malfunction, leaving the driver with no power-steering assistance.
Recall risks
