What Happened
The steering gear box in your vehicle is a critical part that helps you control your direction. In some 2023-2024 Odyssey and 2024 Acura RDX models, it wasn't tightened correctly, which lets water in and can cause serious problems.
Risk if Unfixed
If the steering gears get corroded and jammed, you could lose control of your vehicle. This could lead to a crash, so it's essential to get this fixed right away.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will replace the faulty electric power steering rack with a new one, at no cost to you. Schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice, and it's free.
