Approximately 167,000 Acura TSX vehicles made between ’04 – ’08 are are among the latest set of recalls issued by automobile manufacturers.  The affected TSX cars were sold in the US with the 2.4L inline 4-cylinder engine.

The power steering hose could crack causing fluid to leak onto a hot exhaust component which potentially cause smoke or fire.

Acura will replace the power steering hose, o-ring gasket and power steering fluid at no cost to the TSX owner.  Owners of affected cars will be notified of the recall starting at the end of May 2010.
