2010 ACURA MDX Recall

Campaign:
10V002000 on 01/03/2010
Component:
Air bags
Manufactured:
10/06/2009 - 11/13/2009
Affected:
644
Defect:
Honda is recalling certain model year acura 2010 mdx vehicles manufactured between october 7, 2009 and november 14, 2009. a bolt used to attach an interior trim piece to either the driver's or passenger's side a-pillar may not have been installed during manufacturing.
Consequence:
In the event of a crash resulting in side curtain air bag deployment, the trim piece may not remain properly secured to the a-pillar, increasing the risk of injury to the driver and/or front seat passenger.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect the interior trim piece of the a-pillar and if a bolt is missing it will be installed free of charge. four vehicles were purchased before the stop-sale was issued and all the vehicles have been inspected and repaired if necessary.
Notes:
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to <a href=http://www.safercar.gov>http://www.safercar.gov</a> .
