RDX Rear Seat Safety
We are looking to purchase an RDX, but are concerned about the rear seat safety. I'm hoping that someone in this forum is a mechanic or may have otherwise come across this information.
The Honda CR-V had rear seat injuries reported in the IIHS Moderate Overlap Front Updated Test. IIHS has not performed this test on the RDX yet. Since the RDX is on the same chassis, we are concerned that it may have the same issue with that type of collision.
Does anyone have access to the service manual for the 2022 Honda CR-V and the service manual for the 2022 Acura RDX? Would it be possible to post pictures of the illustrations that show the mechanisms that fasten the rear seat to the seat backs and to the vehicles.
I'm hoping that the method of attachment for the CR-V and the RDX are not identical so that we can assume the RDX would not have the same issue as the CR-V in the Moderate Overlap Front Updated Test. IIHS says that the bracket that connects the rear seat to the rear seat back bent and caused the movement of the rear seat during that collision test.
