2004 Acura Tsx

Defect. Dorman Products, Inc. (Dorman) is recalling certain Accelerator Pedal Assemblies part numbers 699-114 and 825-5029-1, sold as replacement parts for 2003-2006 Acura MDX, 2004-2008 Acura TL and TSX, 2003-2007 Honda Accord, 2005-2006 Honda CR-V, 2007-2011 Honda Element, 2005-2008 Honda Pilot and 2006-2014 Honda Ridgeline vehicles. The rotating portion of the accelerator pedal assembly may bind. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 124, "Accelerator Control Systems."

Risk. If the accelerator pedal binds, the engine may not quickly return to idle after the pedal is no longer pressed, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Dorman will notify owners, and qualified service facilities will replace the affected accelerator pedal assemblies, free of charge. The recall began December 9, 2019. Owners may contact Dorman customer service at 1-800-523-2492, using option 5. Dorman's number for this recall is AS1019XXXX.

Defect. Honda is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Acura TSX vehicles originally sold in, or currently registered in, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. In states that use corrosive materials for deicing, driver's footwear may bring in materials that saturate the vehicle's carpeting, which is in contact with the vehicle's engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU). As a result, the ECU case may experience rust or corrosion. This damage may potentially cause the engine to stall.

Risk. A vehicle stall increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Honda will notify owners and Acura dealers will inspect the vehicle and replace any damaged ECU, free of charge. All vehicles will have a waterproof cover installed onto the ECU, free of charge. The recall began during April 2013.

Defect. HONDA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004 THROUGH 2008 ACURA TSX PASSENGER VEHICLES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN SEPTEMBER 25, 2002 AND FEBRUARY 13, 2008. PROLONGED HIGH UNDER HOOD TEMPERATURES MAY CAUSE THE POWER STEERING HOSE TO DETERIORATE PREMATURELY AND MAY CAUSE THE HOSE TO CRACK AND LEAK POWER STEERING OIL.

Risk. OIL LEAKING ONTO A HOT EXHAUST PIPE WILL GENERATE SMOKE AND A BURNING SMELL, AND COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN AN UNDER HOOD FIRE.

Remedy. HONDA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND DEALERS WILL REPAIR THE VEHICLES FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN MAY 28, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT ACURA CLIENT SERVICES AT 1-800-382-2238.

Defect. ON CERTAIN PASSENGER CARS, THE WIRE HARNESS LOCATED IN THE TRUNK HINGE AREA IS NOT ADEQUATELY PROTECTED AND OVER TIME COULD BE DAMAGED WHEN THE TRUNK IS OPENED AND CLOSED.

Risk. A DAMAGED HARNESS CAN CAUSE A BLOWN FUSE, A SHORT CIRCUIT AND IT CAN RESULT IN A LOSS OF LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS, BACK-UP LIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHT FUNCTION. LOSS OF A TAIL LIGHT COULD REDUCE VISIBILITY AND INCREASE THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE HARNESS AND IF ANY DAMAGE IS FOUND, THE HARNESS WILL BE REPLACED. IF NO DAMAGE IS FOUND, DEALERS WILL INSTALL CORRUGATED PLASTIC TUBING OVER THE HARNESS TO PREVENT FUTURE DAMAGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 15, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009.

While driving the vehicle, the vehicle suddenly shutoff and powered on again. After do some diagnostics we determined is was the ECU/ECM. The ECM has corrosion on the top which caused salty water to eat through the lid. Doing some research this vehicle make and model has recall but doesn’t show up under my vin. I’ve contacted the manufacturer which was willing to help but the dealership seems to not want to help since no recall was under the vin so the manufacturer “HONDA” has closed the case but hasn’t given me any answer to why. I’m in contact again with the manufacturer waiting for a call back hopefully today 4-21-26

I HAVE A 2004 ACURA TSX I PURCHASED FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER BACK ON MAY OF 2018 WITH 55000 ORIGINAL MILES. THE CAR RUNS LIKE NEW IT WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF WITH THE ORIGINAL OWNER ALL SERVICES AND INSPECTIONS WERE UP TO DATE AS/ CARFAX REPORT. THE CAR SINCE I'VE OWNED I PUT 19000 MILES WITH ALL SERVICE AND INSPECTIONS UP TO DATE SO THE VEHICLE HAS NOW 74000 MILES. 3 WEEKS AGO THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SHIFT ROUGH. THE FLUIDS AND FILTER WERE REPLACED AT 60000 MILES SO ITS NOT THE FLUID THATS DIRTY. I TOOK IT TO 3 DIFFERENT MECHANICS INCLUDING MY STATE INSPECTION MECHANIC AND THEY TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT'S STARTING TO GO BAD. I WAS ALSO TOLD THESE TRANSMISSIONS CAME FAULTY IN A LOT OF HONDA CARS AND HONDA WAS TO REPLACE THEM AT NO COST. MY QUESTION IS IF MY CAR FALLS INTO THIS WARRANTY ISSUE BECAUSE I KNOW THE YEAR OF CAR IS OLD BUT THE CAR LOOKS AND RUNS LIKE NEW. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE TO SOLVE THIS MATTER MAYBE THERE IS A RECALL THAT I'M NOT AWARE OF AND MAYBE IT CAN BE REPAIRED THRU THE MANUFACTURER SINCE THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE AND COSTLY ISSUE TO TAKE CARE OF ON MY OWN. I CAN BE REACHED AT [XXX] IF YOU NEED FURTHER INFORMATION THANK YOU. [XXX] (OWNER) INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

This vehicle was taken in for a recall for a corrosive ECM. 1 hour prior to taking this vehicle in my assigned service writer gave me a call, your vehicle is ready for pick up. I was advised due to their visual inspection of the ECM( Electronic control module)(electrical computer) not having corrosion, they will not change the unit but they have decided to replace the cover on the unit. I've filed a concerning complaint to Acura headquarters due to my knowledge of cars to have it on file what was told to me before receiving the vehicle. Due to my knowledge a faulty ECM can trigger numerous faults within the vehicles performance.Prior to bringing the vehicle to the dealership, I've been experiencing heavy misfires, poor radio connection, no interior lights and triggered headlights. I've replaced the necessary mechanics that would normal be the cause of these issues and the problem was still existing. The last option was the ECM,which fueled my search of a recall on these models for a faulty ECM. A few weeks later I've contacted another dealership in hopes they would take care of the problem, the representative was polite and reassured me the recall was suppose to be replaced with a new unit under manufacturer policy. However this could not be done because the previous dealer has marked the vehicle as a completed task. So I filed another complaint and have not received any further notice regarding my concern. A few weeks later I had the vehicle diagnosed and realized the ECM wa

Power Steering Hose Leak. I took my vehicle in to have the oil changed and mechanics noticed a power steering leak. The mechanic looked up any recalls on my vehicle and noted this was a previous recall. Upon searching, 2010 there was a bulletin that went out, and the car was taken in 2010 and inspected and released. Upon further searching the other day there was a 2018 release and update of the same bulletin, which I never received. Regardless of it being inspected in 2010 and being cleared to drive, it seems this issue ultimately ended up happening, just now, instead of 2010. When I contacted Acura they said there are no current vin associated recalls on my vehicle. My issue is, just because it was 10 years ago w/no issue doesn’t mean the issue doesn’t exist today, which it does. I’ve gotten no help from Acura on this. Any information you can provide would be appreciated. Thank you.

My headlights always flicker and turn off everytime i drive within 5 minutes of driving. it gets really bad when i drive in cold/wet weather and i’ve replaced the bulbs a good 5 times. Something is wrong with my suspension i think? my VSC and warning light always automatically come and stay on and my car makes a noise everytime i turn/reverse. My car continues to start smoking when i drive, especifically on hot days and multiple mechanics have said i have a severe oil leak/power steering leak and i’ve gone to 3 within the last 6 months. So i’m not sure what to do and i seen the recalls on all of the things i listed above for my model of car just not specifically for my vin number. please help.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WAS HARD TO STEER THE CAR

I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY CAR A NUMBER OF TIMES AND ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS BEEN RAINING MY CAR WOULD TURN OFF AND THE LIGHTS WOULD START FLASHING AND THE VSA CONTROL LIGHTS WOULD COME ON. IT SCARED THE LIFE OUT OF ME. ITS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY A FEW TIMES AND REGULAR DRIVING ON THE ROADS. I HAVE ALSO BEEN DRIVING AND DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE ACCELERATOR SEEMED TO STAY PRESSED DOWN. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. THERE MUST BE ELECTRICAL ISSUES, ALSO MY RADIO TENDS TO STOP WORKING AND THEN COMES ON RANDOMLY WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT. I HAVE ASKED HONDA BEFORE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALLS. THERE SEEMS TO MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS CONNECTED TO THE VSA. I ALSO FOUND AT TIMES THE CARPETS WET IN THE FRONT AND THE CAR DOESN'T LEAK THAT I KNOW OF. I WISH ACURA WOULD HONOR THEIR RECALLS AND NOT PUT PEOPLES LIVES IN DANGER. IF SOMETHING DOES HAPPEN. I WANT IT DOCUMENTED AND THERE WILL BE ACTION TAKEN IF THEY DO NOT FIX MY ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 ACURA TSX. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED HOWEVER, FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING WITH THE CHECK ENGINE AND THE VEHICLE ASSIST WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ECU NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDED, PURCHASED AND REPAIRED VEHICLE WITH A USED ECU, DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE IMPROVED AFTER THE REPAIRS HOWEVER, THE WARNING LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE TECHNICIAN THEN TOLD THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V093000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND TOLD THE CONTACT TO CALL THAT MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND STATED THAT THE USED ECU VOIDED THE RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN SERVICED BY AN ACURA DEALER SINCE 2012, TO WHICH THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS SON TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V174000 (STEERING) AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 04V429000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING) RECALL REPAIRS IN 2011 AND 2012 RESPECTIVELY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF ANY OTHER RECALLS AND THAT SINCE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, HE UTILIZED THE SERVICES OF AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, TO CUT COSTS. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 118,000.

2004 ACURA TSX: I SAT IN MY CAR IDLE FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES TO EAT. WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPOT, THE PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AND SEAT AIRBAGS SUDDENLY DEPLOYED. WITHIN 5 SECONDS THE DRIVER SIDE DEPLOYED. THESE CREATED THE LOUDEST NOISE I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I QUICKLY PUT THE CAR BACK IN PARK AND JUMPED OUT AS THE CAR WAS FILLED WITH A DUSTY CLOUD. THIS CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED AT AN ACURA DEALERSHIP EVERY 5,000 - 6,000 MILES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT.

WHEN I DRIVING THE CAR, EITHER STREET OR HIGHWAY , THE CAR SLOWS DOWN OR LOSE HORSEPOWER. I COULD BE DOING 60 ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR STALLS ON IT'S OWN ALMOST SHUTTING DOWN.

ON 11/14/2019 TOOK MY CAR INTO BRADSHAW ACURA DEALER SHIP FOR THE ECM/ PCM CORROSIN RECALL #13-014 AND THEY REFUSE TO DUE THE RECALL EVEN THO MY ECU HAS CORROSIN ON IT AND EXPLAINED TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR CORY THAT I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND IT STALLED OUT. TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND EVERTING IS IN GOOD AND WORKING CONDITION BUT WHEN HE LOOKED AT THE ECU AND SAW ALL THE CORROSION. ON IT HE SAID THIS HAS TO BE THE PROBLEM AND I TOLD THE SERVICE ADVISOR THIS AND THEY REFUSE TO DO THE RECALL AND REPLACE THE PCM

CAR LEAKING POWER STEERING FLUID AND SMOKING UNDERNEATH ENGINE, KEEP HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND I SAW RECALLS ON 2004 -2008 MODELS AND AIR BAG ICON ALWAYS ON

THE PROBLEM: WHEN IT IS HOT THE CAR START LOSING POWER, AND VSA LIGHT COMES UP. THEN THE GAUGE CLUSTER START DOING INTERMITTENT SHUTDOWNS OF THE RPM AND SPEEDOMETER GAUGES. ADDITIONAL TO THAT, THE A/C SHUT DOWN AND BLOW HOT AIR. ACURA DIAGNOSTIC: JOHN EAGLE ACURA HAD THE CAR TO CHECK THE PROBLEM. DURING THE TEST IN HOT TEMPERATURE, THEY FOUND THERE IS A PROBLEM OF ECU COMMUNICATION IN THE F-CAN. THERE ARE 3 MAIN THINGS THAT COMMUNICATE WITH ECU THOUGH THE F-CAN: ONE IS THE GAUGE CLUSTER WHICH I REPLACED, THE SECOND WAS THE VSA MODULATOR WHICH WAS DISCONNECTED TO TEST, AND THE THIRD ONE WAS THE RADIO SYSTEM THAT WAS ALSO DISCONNECTED, AND THE RESULTS WERE THE SAME (DAMAGED). ACCORDING TO ACURA ENGINEERS, AFTER PROCEEDING WITH ALL THESE STEPS THE SOLUTION IS REPLACING ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU). ACURA FAKE RECALL: LAST DECEMBER I TOOK MY CAR TO AN ACURA DEALER BECAUSE THERE WAS A BULLETIN FOR A RECALL FOR ACURA TSX; THIS RECALL WAS ABOUT ECU CORROSION AND IT SPECIFICALLY SAY THAT IT IS GOING TO BE DETAILED CHECKED AND TESTED AND IF ANY PROBLEM WAS PRESENTED IT COULD ALSO BE REPLACED WITHOUT NO COST. WELL, WHAT THEY DID WAS PUT A PIECE OF PLASTIC COVER ON TOP OF THE ECU TO COVER THE CORROSION THAT THE ECU ALREADY HAD, AND 4 MONTH LATER THESE PROBLEMS COME UP. THEREFORE, I CALLED ACURA AND ASK THEM TO MAKE A FOLLOW UP OF THIS RECALL AND WHAT THEY ANSWER WAS THAT THE RECALL WAS ALREADY DONE, AND THEY CANNOT DO THE RECALL TWICE AND THAT THEY FEEL REALLY SORRY. CONCLUSION: ACURA

MY SAFETY RESTRAINT LIGHT STAYS ON AT 155,000 MILES. FOR AIRBAGS
