MORRISTOWN, N.J. – Acura TSX NJ drivers have now learned first-hand what it means to own a recalled vehicle. Approximately 167,000 Acura TSX NJ owners are affected in a recall by Honda due to a potential fire hazard involving models made during the years 2004 through 2008.
The component at the center of Acura TSX NJ drivers’ worries is a power steering hose that could wear away due to prolonged exposure to excessively hot temperatures. The deterioration could lead to leaking or spraying of power steering fluid causing smoke or fire.
Acura TSX NJ owners affected by the recall will be able to bring their vehicles in to correct the hazard, but many may be wondering about the next recall and if they are driving a truly safe vehicle.
