The short version

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) reported a problem with the seats. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The front driver and passenger powered seats in the Honda vehicles and the driver powered seats in the Acura vehicles may have been assembled with improperly manufactured rivets. In the event of a crash, the rivets can break causing the seats not to be secured to the floor.

WHY IT MATTERS

In the event of a crash, if the seat does not remain secured to the floor, the seat occupant has an increased risk of injury.

WHAT TO DO

Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver seat frame assembly in Acura MDX vehicles, and replace the driver and front passenger seat slide rail frames in Honda Pilot and Ridgeline vehicles, free of charge.
