The North American luxury division of Honda announced a safety recall involving no less than 8,709 Acura MDX crossovers belonging to the 2012 model year, together with the Pilot that’s built on the same platform.
The problem lies with a valve case in the fuel tank which may cause potential fires due to a design flaw. This may cause the fuel to leak from the tank, in turn increasing the risk of a fire.
