- Summary
- Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017 Acura NSX vehicles.

As listed by NHTSA. A recall usually covers only some vehicles of each model and year, often a production date range.
Has your Acura been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. Recall repairs are free.
