No safety recalls on file for the 2026 Acura MDX so far.

Earlier model years · 2025: 3 · 2024: 3
BrakesThe brake pedal assembly may not have been manufactured properly.2025 · Recall 2025-318 · 2025-06-12 · 15,574 vehicles in Canada

Issue

On certain vehicles, the brake pedal assembly may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the brake pedal could move and cause you not to be able to apply the brakes properly, or to apply the brakes unexpectedly. This could also cause the brake lights to turn on without pressing the brake pedal.

Safety Risk

Reduced braking and/or braking unexpectedly could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, brake lights that turn on without the brake pedal being pressed could cause others not to recognize when the vehicle is braking or not braking and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions

The company will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake pedal assembly.

Issue

Corrective Actions

Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the center display assembly.
