Dorman Recalls Accelerator Pedal Assemblies for Acura and Honda Vehicles

Dorman is recalling specific accelerator pedal assemblies for Acura and Honda vehicles because the rotating portion may bind, increasing crash risk.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (accelerator pedal binding) that increases the risk of a crash, meeting the criteria for a Severe rating.

Plain-English summary

Dorman Products, Inc. is recalling certain Accelerator Pedal Assemblies, part numbers 699-114 and 825-5029-1, sold as replacement parts. These parts were sold for 2003-2006 Acura MDX, 2004-2008 Acura TL and TSX, 2003-2007 Honda Accord, 2005-2006 Honda CR-V, 2007-2011 Honda Element, 2005-2008 Honda Pilot, and 2006-2014 Honda Ridgeline vehicles.

The rotating portion of the accelerator pedal assembly may bind. If the accelerator pedal binds, the engine may not quickly return to idle after the pedal is no longer pressed, increasing the risk of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 124, "Accelerator Control Systems."

Dorman will notify owners, and qualified service facilities will replace the affected accelerator pedal assemblies, free of charge. The recall began December 9, 2019. Owners may contact Dorman customer service at 1-800-523-2492, using option 5. Dorman's number for this recall is AS1019XXXX. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
