NHTSA US article also applies to Canadian products although not listed yet on Canadian Honda recall list.

It would appear so.

 

That's the way I read it too.

Ours is not on the NHTSA recall list...yet. It might just be too early for them all to be listed.

OTOH, another article I read said that the parts are available so hopefully it won't be a six month wait like last time.

 

Definitely not a long wait. I found out about the recall on Monday and scheduled and appointment for this morning. Went there and 2 hours later recall done and I was on my way.

 

Had my 14 RDX done, off to the dealer again. No recall notice yet.

 

I didn't get an official notice in the mail either. I read about it in the news and called the dealership. After confirming my VIN is affected, they set me up with an appointment right away to get it fixed.
