Modifying Your Vehicle - Acura 2010 RDX Owner's Manual

Modifying Your Vehicle

Removing parts from your vehicle, or
replacing components with non-
Acura components could seriously
affect your vehicle's handling,
stability, and reliability.
Here are some examples:
Lowering the vehicle with a non-
●
Acura suspension kit that
significantly reduces ground
clearance can allow the
undercarriage to hit speed bumps
or other raised objects, which
could cause the airbags to deploy.
Raising your vehicle with a non-
●
Acura suspension kit can affect the
handling and stability.
Non-Acura wheels, because they
●
are a universal design, can cause
excessive stress on suspension
components and will not be
compatible with the tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS).
Larger or smaller wheels and tires
●
can interfere with the operation of
your vehicle's anti-lock brakes and
other systems.
Modifying your steering wheel or
●
any other part of your vehicle's
safety features can make the
systems ineffective.
If you plan to modify your vehicle,
consult your dealer.
