Acura MDX touchscreen can go blank hiding the rearview camera

Honda is recalling certain 2025 Acura MDX vehicles because the centre console touchscreen may go blank, so the rearview camera image does not display. This fails FMVSS 111.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm where injury has not yet been reported: a rear visibility aid may not display, but the vehicle retains control and propulsion and no incidents are recorded.

Plain-English summary

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2025 Acura MDX vehicles. About 9,221 units are potentially affected.

The touchscreen in the centre console may go blank, resulting in the rearview camera image not displaying as intended. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 111, "Rear Visibility".

NHTSA states that a rearview camera that does not display an image can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will replace the centre information display unit free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on March 3, 2025. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138, or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
