Steering — Electric power assist systemCampaign 25V582000 · 05 Sep 2025

Problem: Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2025 Acura RDX vehicles. The software for the electric power steering (EPS) assist may not be calibrated properly, which can cause the EPS system to enter a failsafe mode, resulting in a loss of power steering assist.

Risk: A loss of power steering assist can require greater steering effort, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

Remedy: Dealers will reprogram the EPS software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 20, 2025. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138.
