VSA Module replacement

My 14' RLX tech has been giving me some issues lately. Multiple warning lights coming on at the same time. (VSA problem, power steering problem, P-AWS problem, LDW, and FCW.) The car didn't seem to drive any differently until I got on the highway and the power would cut out at about 50mph. Returned to the dealer and they said they are replacing the VSA module. I'll let you guys know if the problem is solved when I get the car back.

How did this go for you?

I'm thinking that after two days you probably have your car back.

Was this warranty coverage?

Problem Solved

Sorry for the delay. After the dealer replaced the part, everything is fine again. All covered under warranty. Unfortunately I've had a few problems with my RLX including the "12v charging issue" which the dealer mishandled, condensation in a few of the jewel eyes, and some tire air pressure issues. I've had a 00' Integra, 05' TL, 09' Tsx, and an '09 RL. This RLX has had the most bugs for me so far. Almost forgot to mention, on occasion the radio will only display HDD, or CD. Unable to use any other media unless I restart the car. That can be a bit annoying.

It happens to me very rarely, but I'm going to say that maybe a total of four times in the car's life, there's been a NAV or AUDIO glitch like that. Can only be fixed the next time you're cycling the power.

Thanks for the update. Glad replacing the VSA fixed the problem. Do you have an early-build 2014? Those seemed to have the most problems.

Not quite sure if it's an early build but I'll take a look. Unfortunately the problem has just returned! Very frustrating. Who has time to go back and forth to the dealership, especially with the holidays here? I'll bring it in some time next week.

Once again my reply is late but anyway the fix was replacing a right rear actuator for the P-AWS system. Apparently there was a short of some kind. My latest issue is now with my battery which I'll explain in another thread.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but this just happened to me. Biggest problem of all is the car is 4500 past it's warranty.

Anyone have a guess on how much a new VSA module will run me?

Thanks in advance!
