Retrieve Unlock Codes for Radio and Navigation Devices
"The Radio/Navigation Code and the device unit's serial number are listed on the anti-theft ID card that comes with the vehicle. The card is usually placed in the glove box at the time of delivery."
Did anyone actually get one of these cards at delivery? I'm asking specifically about a 2016 RDX.

Get the code from your dealer and put it in a file in your house - not in your car. The bad guys are used to rifling through the glove box to get the radio code and will normally take the radio and the owner's manual (where the code normally is) when a radio gets stolen from a car like an older Civic or Accord

My dealer informed us that the code is on file at the dealership in the service section and no longer on a card in the glove box on 2016 models. If that is the case then why not update owners manual.

Call the dealer and get the code. It is your car, your radio, your code. The dealer is full of smelly stuff.

Acura client relations says that codes are no longer needed in the case of a 2016 RDX. Something about pressing and holding the power button. And, in any event a card with the pertinent info will arrive in the mail in a couple of weeks. I agree with the poster about why the owner's manual isn't updated to include this info. The compass calibration deal is likewise irritating. Thanks to all.
