Honda is recalling over 880,000 vehicles due to a problem with the rear suspension that could cause drivers to lose control, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

Affected Vehicles

The recall covers certain 2016-2022 Honda Pilot, 2017-2023 Ridgeline, 2019-2023 Passport, and 2014-2020 Acura MDX vehicles sold in several states, including Connecticut, Delaware, and Illinois.

The issue is related to the rear subframe, which can corrode at suspension mounting points and cause the rear suspension to fail. Honda estimates that only 1% of the vehicles listed have the defect.

Honda has not received any warranty claims or reports of injuries or deaths related to the problem. As a remedy, Honda and Acura dealers will inspect the rear subframe and install a reinforcement kit if necessary, or repair or replace the rear subframe components at no cost to vehicle owners.

Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on July 7. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s campaign number for the recall is 26V367000.
