Certain vehicles within the above model/model years are subject to one or more of three recalls that were announced
today. Do not sell any of these vehicles until Acura has provided you with an appropriate disclosure and
acknowledgment form, which we anticipate will be provided by close of business on Wednesday, June 25, 2014.
The recalls announced today involve driver’s or passenger’s front airbag inflators, which in a crash may deploy with too
much pressure, causing the inflator casing to rupture and eject metal fragments that could injure or kill vehicle
occupants. While two of the recalls only affect vehicles sold or ever registered in certain states/territories, vehicles that
currently are registered in other states/territories may also be affected if they were at one time registered in the affected
states/territories. Accordingly, until we are able to obtain specific information on which particular VINs are affected, we
can only address the recalls on a model and model year basis. In addition to the lack of VIN information, replacement
parts have yet to be made for these recalls, and due to the volume of affected vehicles (of both Acura and other brands),
parts may not be available for some time.
Due to these unique circumstances, Acura is implementing a strategy to handle units on stop sale as well as client-owned
vehicles that come in for service. An update to this action will be provided by the close of business on Wednesday, June
25, 2014.
