## What is wrong

Honda \(American Honda Motor Co.\) is recalling certain 2014\-2020 Acura MDX vehicles.  Moisture may enter the tailgate lid light assembly and wiring harness, which can cause the interior and exterior lights to fail, including the lid lights, position lights, license plate lights and taillights.


## What can happen

Vehicle lights that fail to illuminate can decrease visibility and increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will inspect the wiring and install a fuse harness, replace the lid light, and repair the body dust sealer, as necessary, free of charge.  Owner notification letters were mailed May 30, 2025.  Owners may contact Acura's customer service at 1\-800\-382\-2238.  Acura's number for this recall is FLI.  Vehicles included in this recall that were previously repaired under NHTSA recall number 19V\-256 will need to have the new remedy completed.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 888\-275\-9171\) or go to nhtsa.gov.
