SERVICEADVISOR

I am not sure if this has been posted yet but AHM anounced to us yesterday there will be a recall on the 2009 TSX for trunk lock cylinder repalcement campaign number (08-040) the issue is that the valet key opens the trunk ! so if this is the first you have heard of this check to see if your valet key opens your trunk. (it's not suppose to) and if it does call your local dealer to set an appointment. letters to affected owners will be going out beginning the end of August and American Honda will make this public today....

Thanks for the headsup.

We try to post all the service bulletins and recalls in the FAQ section but we're usually running a little behind.

First I'm hearing of this. Thanks for the heads up!

And wow, that didn't take long. At least it's not something big like an engine or tranny issue, though.

Wow, we knew about this a month ago. I had 4 cars they wouldn't let me sell until the new locks came in. I didn't know it was going to be a recall campaign. I believe it is a very small number of units affected.

Try behind the backseat headrest on the driver's side.

Open the cover for the rear child seat and you'll find a lock cylinder
